Does it matter if OP got the price through LNF? He reserved a 1 bedroom and ended up in a studio - which is an obviously downgrade. I don't think it's matter if he got his room at a bottom low price.

The fact is that OP has a valid ressie showing what room type he booked and if he gets something less, then of course he is entitled to something. I don't even think this has anything to do with OP status.

Some people might think a studio is similar to a 1BR but I do think 1BR is more attractive to studio. Also Marriott's upgrade for elites doesn't include studio to 1BR, so I definitely think OP was downgraded.
