Having seen some of the other threads started by the OP, and considering that at least one contributor to this thread has had his account suspended (although that could also be for other reasons), it brings to mind lines 9-10 of Max Ehrmann's poem, Desiderata: https://allpoetry.com/Desiderata---Words-for-Life

Personally, I had a very nice weekend at a W.
As to why its not a brand standard, well ... it was pretty obvious at the pool that only a couple of people would have been in the six figure income bracket and I'd be surprised that many were Gold's or Plat's that would have been eligible for a lounge. Now ... whether the hotel has low occupancy during the week when the road warriors are staying elsewhere and the get together and rent a room crowd is at work .....
