Also, we have a 7 PM flight out of DPS, will they allow 4 PM checkout for Golds?

I'm about to book 2 rooms for 2 nights. For one of the rooms, I'll use megabonus free nights (and will pay for other room). I'm Gold Elite and wondering if we will get complimentary breakfast. There's no option for breakfast rate with the free night, obviously. In the US, I don't think I've ever gotten comp breakfast at a Courtyard.
Also, we have a 7 PM flight out of DPS, will they allow 4 PM checkout for Golds?

Oh, fabulous. This is awesome news. I've reserved 2 rooms for 2 nights with free nights and points. My teens will be loving on that breakfast buffet. All the reviews of the place are really outstanding!

Our stay is coming up in a couple of days and I’ve had several emails offering to “make our stay great” or similar. Anything in particular I should ask for in advance via email? These are award nights so booked into standard. Two rooms. It would be great to have a suite upgrade for at least one of the rooms so we can spread out a bit. Not sure if I should wait till arrival for that. I’m gold for what that’s worth.

They're offering $10/person/day F&B credit on top of free breakfast right now (Sept 2-4) to Plats. Seems like overkill and I wonder how long this will last. Upgraded to a 1br.
Seemed like the clientele is 90% Australians.

I had only one complaint but did not voice it to anyone at the time b/c it would've sounded accusatory. But here it is: I drink both Beefeater and Bombay Sapphire gin and know exactly how they taste. A martini I ordered tasted nothing like it should and I couldn't drink it. So then I ordered just Beefeater on ice; I saw the bartender pour it. And although it was a Beefeater bottle, the liquor in my glass was most definitely not Beefeater. Same thing with Bombay. The Beefeater I then purchased at the Bali airport duty free headed to Hong Kong was fine. So I don't know if someone swapped out the gin at the bar in the hotel or if they are being sold bad bottles. But something was definitely not right.

So looking at this property it seems like a good deal for plats. Just wondering if there is any other marriott on bali I should consider first? I looked at the W but the price was like three to four times that of the courtyard and I can't bring myself to pay that much.

We also looked into the Conrad, which rates are also really affordable as we are also Diamond with Hilton, but heard they are having construction now and the beach over at the Conrad is non-existent..
