There aren't many executive suites, so i'm sure this will still be a tough upgrade to get, but it's great to have the chance to confirm it in advance now.

Thanks for the tip. Since I order room service for breakfast and don’t care about the lounge, the SNA for my 1 night at this hotel seems a better risk than the W (which is also more expensive). I also need just 2 more nights at legacy Marriott to reach my 10th year of Plat status, so this is a no-brainer.

This will be my first JW Marriott ever. Hoo-rah.
