I honestly don't know.
I only made those two Wellesley Suite stays, which is why I was so surprised to see myself described as "a frequent AmeriSuites guest."
Generally, when I travel, I go to:
Milan, where I stay with my UIG (Used Italian Girlfriend) in her house.
Lugano, where I stay with my girlfriend in her summer home.
Various European cities, where I stay at family-owned hotels.
Savannah, where I stay(ed) with my BAG (Beautiful American Girlfriend). This is over, a fact which in no way depresses my UIG.
Tel Aviv, where I either stay at the Hotel Adiv or, if my UIG is in town, at her house. (Okay, she has a lot of houses.)
Fort Lauderdale, where I stay at the least expensive place I can find -- hence those Wellesley visits.
I am definitely not a prime candidate for any hotel chain's VIP program.
