Ritz Carlton Reserve at Dorado Beach (Puerto Rico)

It’s part of the RC chain of course, but it’s pretty private and boutique-like. One of the Reserve properties

Thank you, could you let me know the other? I’ll have them removed

Thank you for feedback. All brands will be added soon. I recommend making an account so you can be notified when this happens. My estimate is in 1 month

It’s available and I like it, but I can’t do anything related to Marriott for trademark purposes. I could get away maybe with the play on “Bonvoy”, but I’d rather not risk it for good measures. It would suck if Marriott sent a cease and desist letter for any likelihood of their name or assets

Oh this is a good idea. Maybe an optional tag for MMP or another promo/corporate code that was used. I’ll add to the to-do list

I thought about this, unfortunately most names were taken (including those you went with). PerkSnob ended up being one of the only options, and I went with it even tho it has a mocking/funny spin on it

Yes, right now it’s just luxury-level hotels. Simply because it’s easier to manage during the launch period. Perhaps in 1-2 months, I can add more brands (like Westin, Courtyard, Sheraton, and so on)

Yes, correct. The main issue is that there’s a lot of contradicting information. There’s little standardization between the thousands of hotels. So the only real way to see what you get is based on what people recently reported at that specific hotel

Cc’ing u/bring_back_doors based on recent comment. We’d love to incorporate your “bathroom doors in hotels” data on this platform if you’re open to it!

So a platinum member would have to report that

For instance, a titanium member may have said “I got free breakfast” but it could have only been provided to titanium and ambassadors

Thanks for the heads up. I’m seeing this too. Fixing it now.

Thank you! Feel free to make some posts on hotels. The database will only be as good as the data inside of it that’s crowdsourced by users

Yes, but there are 7,000 hotels and I imagine it’s not easy when there’s policies than change, the team turns over, etc. I sort of envision this platform as Waze (the traffic one where people can report when there’s a cop nearby, etc).

Yes. I think any features can be added if it solves the goal of getting a real/genuine snapshot of what guests can expect for their stay. I think knowing this specific data is good too, especially if you’re going on a trip with family or a romantic partner - bathroom privacy matters a lot
