Comments: Pleasant surprise to have an upgrade at a long term stay property. The extra space was nice to have! And it meant that someone could sleep in a real bed instead of a sofa bed, so a definitely plus. (Front desk clerk didn't say anything about upgrade at check in, though I checked in late so likely the night crew.) Lots more families with young kids at the property than usual, likely due to the holiday weekend.
