Yep, and that top category would get you the same inconsistent customer service and property quality as a base member with those chains.

That has not been my experience with SPG at all-treated quite well as a plat.

Agreed, from my experience as a SPG Plat I am treated better than I was as a MR Plat. But that's just me and isn't meant as a general comparison between the chains, just their treatment of Plats.

My guess would be the DJ Iceman's post means that each and every chain regardless of tier level has their issues and if this guy would switch b/c of the reasons in his OP, he will never be satisfied at any of the chains regardless of elite level

And DJ Iceman would be right.

And the OP has calmed down & has posted nice replies since his original rant, so I guess we can all cut him a break now ;) :D

Speaking only for myself, I don't care if I get a c-level room as long as I get lounge access. Which btw, is something that isn't happening at Hilton overseas now. No c-level room; no e.l. access.

Cheers.

I agree. ^

Glad to hear that the hotel has been taking care of you by giving you access to the concierge lounge - I think this is the biggest perk.
