If you are 100% certain that the standard suite WAS open at the time you arrived (not preassigned to someone else which they have every right to do) then you have a legitimate gripe on that front, but the notion that Junior Suites MUST have a separate bedroom is hogwash - that's not industry standard and NEVER has been. You should have known better.
I did not expect an upgrade to a 1 bedroom, I expected the junior suite to be a 1 bedroom. And yes, because i had my family and quite some luggage with me I asked for a larger suite than what I expected the junior suite to be. That's all.

I typically NEVER book a suite (since I don't need the space) so I am not familiar with industry tricks around "junior suites".
