same here. plan to stay often at Starriott in the future, hence my consideration for this meeting run. any issues with finding the right hotels and using the GPT?

i would also note term 7:
Qualifying Event charges – food, beverages, meeting room rental, audio visual equipment, and décor ordered by the hotel and paid for on a master account. Guest room rate charges also qualify only when contract has a minimum of ten (10) guest rooms actualize for at least one (1) night of the Event (with or without catering). Qualified guest room charges earn Points or Miles for the Member whether they are paid for on a master account or paid for by the individual guest in the room.

no where does it say your meeting room rental must be accompanied by 10 guest rooms.
