Hopefully there's enough non-standard rooms available for plat upgrades. I don't really care for a suite but would not be happy in their standard base rooms... they do look awful (or maybe they're not as awful in real life?)
They are awful, I can confirm.

In my case, my room was defective and had some device causing an incredible amount of noise. I had to take a video and argue with management showing video as evidence for them to give me a suite. The suite turned out quite nice… but the experience left a bad taste. (They originally refused to give me the unoccupied suite because it was not a standard suite…)
