This sucks, sucks, sucks, for me, worse than I could have imagined. Day = ruined

The three properties where I literally stay the most are going up, HP Portland/Cascade Station, HR San Francisco, and HR McCormick Place.

HP Portland makes little sense with the HH Portland Downtown opening. Oh well, looks like I won't have to Red Line Max it any more from Cascades. HR SF is a more staggering blow. Stay here all the time. Now annual free night unusable here.

HR McCormick Place is just brutal too, and they're shooting themselves in the foot. Why would I stay there now that the HR Chicago is a Cat. 4 as well. After my stay at the Centric last time, won't go back, so that one isn't too bad for me.

San Juan HP and HH going up also sucks big time. Good thing I booked them for October already.

HR Jersey City? Also shooting themselves in the foot. I'd rather stay at the HP Midtown for the exact same price and not take a boat twice a day to Manhattan.

And does anything make up for these losses by going down? Uh.... no. I don't leave the country, so 95% of that list is completely worthless for me. Only highlight is Centric South Beach which I probably will not visit as WN only flies to FLL, not MIA.

This is a sad day indeed.
