Your 12k Hyatt reminded me of a long ago trip to Hyatt Cancun Caribe, a Category 1 hotel. We were upgraded to the separate Regency Club building next to the beach. Amazing buffet, large tub with an ocean view, brand new construction after a hurricane. I had two stays before Hyatt lost the contract. Incredible deal.
