I just stayed there for two nights as diamond. Crappy weather and cold. I arrive and am "upgraded" to a partial gulf view from intercoastal view. They told me that night they were sold out. I think they knew they were already losing money on me as I was gov't rate. My clients room was the same...upgraded to partial gulf. The next morning I ask them why no upgrade to suite and they said they were sold out. I ask again to another guy one hour later and he said they were at 25% capacity which sounded more accurate. I was eventually upgrade (for my second night) to a suite. It was basically two king rooms conjoined by a door. So two bathrooms, two closets, and two "spaces". One for bedroom and one for living room. A "lazy" way to design a suite in 2018 IMO. Overall the stay was great but I would laugh if I was ever to actually pay $500 for that "suite". I also don't appreciate being lied to on Sunday night. I think it's a crock of crap what they did. 25% capacity and I guarantee you most are diamond or even members of the hotel group.
