Thanks for all the replies. Pretty much what I figured, just wanted the confirmation.

Thanks for the reminder. I hadn't considered the possibility of a completely sold out property. Unlikely but nonetheless possible. Although as a diamond I'd hope to be able to stay in my suite until my next room is cleaned up and ready.

Yes occupancy is likely to be an issue. While my category of suites is still currently available (unlike lesser and better categories), looking at immediate dates (tomorrow, day after etc) as an indication of availability immediately before a stay, there seems to be a 50% chance at least that the suite would be unavailable for the last 2 days of my stay anyway.
Rolls the dice, plays my chances I guess.
