If I book a twin room in my name for 10 nights, and then leave back to work after 5, can the single person move into my bed even though the room is technically booked under my name?
Also, would I get the points for the full stay even if I am not there for the last 5 nights?
Thanks!
Technically the T&Cs call for the member to stay and pay for the room(s) to get credit. NOW, as stated above, if you don't make an issue of your departure, then there is a good chance you will get credit for the entire stay. Also, you do want the other person showing as a registered guest for your room so they can deal with the property (front desk, restaurant, etc.) once you leave. And you want to make sure this is someone you really trust since any/all incidentals/damage can be charged to your CC used to check in. Your friend can go down and make a payment on the folio but they should leave at least a dollar to be charged to your card at checkout so there is no issue that you paid for the stay.
