YES. I pointed to the manager the price difference (shown on their own booking engine) between OWB and beach bungalow is only 16k CFP, not the 30k CFP quoted. He gave me some 'blah blah blah' answer and then okayed me to the double horizon OWB for 16k CFP price. I was staying at the property when I check for the empty room and then politely inquired about it. That OWB was available during my stay anyhow, so the manager figured it was better to upgrade me for half price than get nothing for an otherwise empty room.
