The first post has been updated. I kindly ask to post you stays as noted in post #2: ‘arrival’ – ‘departure’ / Hotel / Handle You might skip the departure date if you are not sure how long you will stay there. e.g. Dec 29 – Dec 30 / JW Marriott Shanghai / hhoope01

Technically I don't think they have to give it to him. It's best available room at check-in. Nothing about later int he stay they have to move you if somethign beter becomes available. It would be nice, but I think it's pretty rare that they do that.

I chose the Residence Inn White Plains over the Marriott Westchester or the Renaissance property because I was there on a weekend and I knew that I would at least get breakfast. In addition, the RI is a Category 3 vs the Category 4 for the other two hotels. This RI was renovated last year and the halls and the rooms are fabulous in a modern contemporary way. Second, this property did not start out at a RI, but rather as an upscale long term...

I was able to move a trip back a week to get a portion of my trip into the 2/1 period.. however the week prior will be hyatt hopping for 2X stay credit

Most of my business trips have been at a fixed daily meal per-diem rate. Granted, it's a generous rate for most cities, but if I stay at a Courtyard I feel like I have to leave the hotel to go somewhere else to find breakfast. The most parallel competition to a CY - HGI - provides breakfast. I agree with you on hotelfood in general - there are usually better options out in the neighborhood.
