The alternative will be the Hotel Monaco in the heart of Penn Quarter.
Would anyone care to talk me off the ledge and suggest that I stick with my stay at the W?
I wouldnt normally do this...but I decided to call the local reservations office to see if it's a matter of policy that they wont upgrade into the suites for plats. I would really rather know ahead of time and make an informed decision for this particular occasion.
I left a voicemail and the team there responded in less than 20 minutes; pretty impressive. They said they do upgrade Plats to suites when they can. They seemed pretty confident about it and were quite nice...so I am going to stick with my res after all.
