I guess I now have to concur as I just had it happen for the Fouth time in ONe week...
It really is a bit of a pain... Luckily its fast to spot as the reservation disappears from the app but still seems odd that after years of BRGs this is all of a sudden happening this often?
Not very cool

Kauppias, since they know it is a problem I would not worry about it - for me it was fixed very easily after the fact. Just make sure you keep your confirm/folio and it will be a non-issue. I never even looked at my reservation again from the time I made it/printed it out so unlike you, I never even knew it had disappeared.

Why does this hotel cost 12000 points to use reward on, when the street price average to be $50-75 a night?
The services and room provided is not at the same level as SLS Miami or Beverly Hills... More like a third level hotel off the strip...
I think this one is more like a category 2

Staying at the moment on an $82/night rate. Got upgraded to Lux room which is quite pleasant although no bath, only shower (which, for me, does not make it a "luxurious bathroom" as advertised).
Also, FYI, there is no more free shuttle. They have just started implementing a $7 per person per journey fee. Questioned whether this shouldn't be part of the resort fee but was met with attitude!

Does anyone have a link to the cached page showing the resort fee includes the airport shuttle? It was definitely there when I made my reservation and I never thought to print it off. TIA

If you go to The Tribute website, it is still there. It doesn't say it is part of the resort fee but does say it is complimentary. Print it!

Just a few datapoints
I have an upcoming BRG stay for next week at this property.
So far my SPG number is still saved in the reservation. It was odd that I already found out that my BRG was approved, because of a re confirmation email from the property where the BRG rate was indicated, even before I got the approval email from BRG desk.
I booked the 3x SPG/20% off rate, since this was the cheapest and seemed to have the same cancellation terms as the best flex. Although I have noticed in my initial confirmation email there is clearly indicated that a deposit (= rate for 1 night, stay is 1 night) is due at time of reservation. I can not remember if this showed up when actually making the reservation.
I did not know about the pick your card promotion, so I just registered. Would I still be eligible for the 1000 extra SPG points since I already made the reservation prior to my registration? Usually this works out well for SPG promo's but I am not sure about this one.
And did anybody still get the 3X SPG points for a BRG reservation when the original reservation was for that specific rate?
Re the shuttle: I am 100% sure the complimentary shuttle is still advertised on SPG. This was the reason I choose SLS over the Westin since rates were more or less the same. I do count on the complimentary shuttle .

Platinum benefits at SLS Las Vegas?
Hi All,
Trying to plan labor day in las vegas. I'm Diamond with Hyatt, so would be Platinum with all MGM/M Life properties, and trying to compare those benefits to what I would get at the SLS as a Platinum with SPG. Would be booking 2 rooms for 3 nights. Most interested in room upgrades (7 of us for 2 rooms), free breakfast, and any perks with the pool cabanas/bungalows.
Any and all advice and stories would be great!
Thanks^

If so, I would stay at sls as plat spg.
Spg plat is geared towards accommodations etc. Mlife is geared towards gambling.

Yes, Hyatt Diamond can match to Mlife platinum, highest besides the invite-only Noir. I have never stayed at any of the MGM resorts so I don't know much about the Mlife program other than what I read online.
We would be focused on pool/club/accommodations, less about the gambling.
