What is your Priority Club status?
Platinum
Were you happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes and No.
Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Standard room with 2 Queen beds booked (lowest paid rate available). Upgraded to club floor
How are the rooms?
Normal size room on north side. Pretty quiet. Quick overnight stay with late arrival and early departure. I always like it when the bathroom has a walk in shower instead of a tub.
How is the exec. lounge?
Did not use.
What was good and what was bad?
Friendly helpful staff. Flight arrived just after midnight and had to wait a very long time (one hour) for the shuttle. Called the hotel to ask about it and they advised it was currently at TBIT and would get to me very soon. A few minutes later two drove past without stopping. Hotel advised to take a cab and I would be reimbursed. Thank goodness the front desk has a dedicated elite checkin line. About 50-60 people were in line to check in. Qantas flight to SYD had cancelled. As compensation for the shuttle problem, desk manager gave me 25K points.Also gave me a comp for the breakfast buffet in the morning.
Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Yes, if I have to overnight at LAX, and get another good nightly rate.
