When we checked in, he said he was upgrading us to a suite for the standard reservation. When we explained, he also made sure we didn't have to switch rooms for the duration.

Our friend had a 1 King on another floor and said her room looked pretty much likes ours minus the sitting room.
Was your friend also a Diamond? They didn't get the suite upgrade?
