Some good comments here. Also a few other thoughts; Upgrades are easier on repeat stays ,+ at a business hotel best arrival day for a weekend upgrade is Friday, + for any upgrade arrive between 1-4pm, seldom an upgrade for late pm arrival on any day. Oh, at Resorts it can vary on holidays & peak season, but the arrival at the 1-4 pm slot is still true. ( comments based on about 2200 Mrt stays)
