Right this is my worry now... the upgrades are less likely to be suites now... and more "premium" rooms. Which to many hotels means the same size room but with a "view". Ah well, another carve out of the formerly great Starwood program. Gave Hyatt 97 nights this year... Marriott... 37. It used to be I blew past 100 nights with Marriott. These continued devaluations have consequences.
