I'm beginning to think so. Last week and this week, I tried to book a last
minute business trip to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and both times was told that
it was completely sold out. I first called the Diamond line, two different
times, then I personally called the hotel and tried the "I'm a Diamond, and
I really don't want to go next door to that Marriott", and then I even tried
on Travelocity, etc.... and really no luck! I guess when they're booked
at a smaller hotel in a smaller town, maybe it really means that.??
