Obviously I didn't read the part where you mentioned that all nights are reward nights, plus one free cert. I am not sure if reward nights get an upgrade, but I assume if you don't score an upgrade there would be no need to worry about the same room and room category.

Does a $20 (or 20 euro in this case) work?

It might or it might not. What do you expect him to answer.
Probably no one on this board would have tried this "trick" for fear of being laughed out of the hotel -- IHG's signature property in Rome.
So, what do you think is the answer to your foolish question. This is not Las Vegas, you know.

In this case, I cannot see any issue at all with getting the same room for all the nights and cannot think why they would want to move you anyway. When you check in just make sure that they are aware of all the bookings and they can sort out treating it as one long stay for rooms and keycard access
However the incompetent staff does seem to have problems coding everything correctly, so we have to email IC to get IC points for the paid nights, and a 10% points rebate (Chase) for award nights. YMMV.

I e-mailed this hotel and asked them this;
"Hello,
I am inquiring as to the cost per item for laundry service and if there were any discounts for multiple items?
Thank you for your time,
yada-yadaname"
This was their response;
"Good Morning,
our laundry service is on payment and there is no discount for multiple items.
Thank you for contacting us
Best regards
Reception"
I e-mailed the back 6 days ago now, asking;
"Good morning,
Do you know the cost per item by chance? Like is it 8 euros for a shirt to be cleaned?
Thanks"
No response. So does anyone know how much it costs to get a shirt cleaned here? LOL

Has anyone stayed here recently as a Platinum? I'll be staying here in two weeks. I don't care much for a room upgrade but would like lounge access instead (if there is one at this hotel).

There is no lounge, but you should really look into buying Ambassador status. If you booked the cheapest room, you will really want an upgrade.
