Now I am scared by these weekend stories.

So, here is what I will do. I will assert each thing I want to the desk staff, such as my coupons on check in and the platinum gift (of course the ice cream with my kids!!!).

I hope I am pleasantly surprised, and I will report back here.
Double-check on the pool for each property by calling directly: at the Ren. Pere Marquette in New Orleans, they even closed down the outdoor pool all weekend. (No construction and no bad weather in the area: they simply closed down the entire pool area and said it would reopen Monday.)
