Platinum perks and check-in
We decided to make this reservation last minute, and were unable to check-in on the app before we arrived shortly after 2PM. Apparently, this does not work when trying to check-in so close to the actual check-in/arrival time. I also tried to chat on the app to see if we could check in early; however, no one replied. The parking lot was pretty empty, so we did not expect any trouble getting our room early.
Inside, the agent found us a room right away, and recognized my status. I did not receive an upgraded room, although we did receive M Club Lounge Access. When she asked what kind of room I wanted, I said a club floor room. She said this hotel does not have a club floor, and that as a platinum guest I would have access to the club lounge. I guess I should have said I wanted the presidential suite! 😆 There are definitely some larger guestrooms in this hotel than the one we received.

King guestroom 1118
This guestroom is on the top floor with a fabulous sunset view. It was chic looking and comfortable. The sleep quality was excellent, and the guestroom was clean. It slightly reminded me of Hotel Indigo, except the floor outside of the bathroom was carpeted.
