I only have issue with some hotels who think that upgrading your room to a higher floor is considered an upgrade.

Being a Platinum member, we already have guaranteed access to the Club Lounge. So what is the difference if I'm staying on the 17th floor but you gave me a room on the 18th floor (Club Lounge Level)? There is no upgrade since we are already entitled to Club Lounge Access.

I only consider an upgrade if the room size is increased (either to a bigger corner room or to a suite) and NOT the same room type/size from a lower to higher floor.
