They are a bit pricey however I love the 6 PM check out
The other appealing thing is when booking through the Platinum American Express desk they include Continental breakfast
and a one way/one time driver to area airports during your stay for either pick up or the return^
Otherwise I would have redeemed with American Miles and not used revenue
