I was unfamiliar with this rule and asked the manager of the San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf property if I could check in and check out instead of moving to another local hotel. She told me that it was perfectly fine and that each day would count as a unique stay.

Well guess what, she was dead wrong and I lost three nights credit! Lesson learned on my end. When in doubt never trust a manager who is trying to fill rooms. I don't carry the Diamond rule book with me but I was dumb for trusting this person. I suppose that when in doubt call the Diamond Desk directly.
