When did this change?
The first half of last year (2016) I was staying heavily at La Quinta, always as one-night stays (because I was choosing to stay there primarily for the 1000 UA mile promo -- 750 bonus plus regular 250 -- they had at the time; it's scaled back to 750 total -- 500 + 250 -- since then), and it wasn't until I'd done this about 25 times (certainly way more than 7 times) that they elevated me to Elite status.

Can you share which LQ properties have evening receptions? I never would have expected any LQ to have that if you hadn't mentioned it.
