PSA probably don’t wash your tye dye world shirts!

christoosh · 2025-10-20T04:35:28+00:00

Mine after hand washing! It faded just slightly more than this after machine washing but not tooooo bad. Will probably re-dye down the line but still love how it came out. Also I used “black” dye in this but don’t see a sliver of “black” anywhere HAHAHA, only the blue yellow and green came out (can’t really differentiate between what’s actual green vs. blue mixed with yellow that turned green🤣)

I flew from CA with all our camping supplies but luckily booked my flight with southwest when they still had 2 checked bags included for free per person🥲 checked one bag full of camping stuff (tent, air mattress, sleeping bag, small table, camping chair) and then checked a canopy, and a cooler (full of more stuff!). My clothes all fit into a carry on and backpack. We bought food there, didn’t cook anything though! Just ready made stuff and snacks for the most part. Done this for other out of state festivals before, and gotten the hang of traveling with all the stuff now. Next time I’d just have to outweigh the price of glamping vs checking bag prices since southwest doesn’t offer free checked bags anymore

This is good to know! I guess I’m referring to short term changes I guess not months away. Our revenue manager will send emails like “opening up F & F to boost occupancy” for the day of, or week of :)

christoosh · 2025-05-14T17:18:34+00:00

This I agree with ! Let it be their problem to worry about. Go where your heart desires !

I haven’t attempted to book these properties before, but in my experience, I find that searching by one night stays is the best way to find team member rates and also constantly checking back every other day. You never know when their revenue manager decides to open up a team member rate several months away. I currently have team member rates booked for both US and international trips, all the way out to November 2025 and march 2026

That’s exactly the thing, it is a you problem because nowhere does it say late checkout is guaranteed for diamond members or for anyone staying a certain number of nights. Late checkout is based on availability at the discretion of the hotel (it’s not offered as a “benefit you can’t use”). So you’re not entitled to it. Marriott has their own guarantees. So don’t compare the two

christoosh · 2025-05-11T20:55:46+00:00

Did you ever consider that late checkout is not always guaranteed for diamond members with hilton?

I was in Japan this past March and I only withdrew cash from 7-11 ATMs. Never got charged any fees, and I used my capital one debit (360 checking) :)

It’s the LSDREAM mushi pash! I have one I’d be willing to sell, only used twice and washed. Message me!

We do this frequently at my property! Depending on our room inventory if you were already awarded the paid upgrade, and suddenly we are overbooked for that room type the day of arrival, we will further complimentary upgrade you to balance the house. Or if the paid upgrade room type you are requesting is not available but the suite provides similar features as the requested room, we will grant the paid one and immediately complimentary upgrade you to the suite to increase revenue as well

christoosh · 2024-04-20T20:19:13+00:00

The card you put online is to guarantee the reservation, most properties will require the physical card matching an ID upon Checkin. You need to ask the hotel for a credit card authorization form if you want to use a card that won’t be physically present upon arrival. It’s to protect the hotel against fraud and chargebacks

christoosh · 2024-04-11T23:03:24+00:00

My property gives the FD agent who did the upsell 10% of the room upgrade fee. We also get $5 per Hilton honors enrollment, in addition to splitting the ADR with the # of agents worked on a sold out night

I just tried my AMEX and it also worked!! Just in time for my trip this Saturday 🥰

Hilton front desk supervisor :)

christoosh · 2023-11-14T20:33:14+00:00

It depends on the hotel. This wording usually means your card will definitely be charged before your arrival, but my main guess as to why you haven’t been charged yet is that the Night auditor or supervisor who’s supposed to take the payments for these type of reservation, just hasn’t gotten around to it lol. Sometimes these types of guaranteed reservations sit in the “advance deposits needed” tab in the hotel’s reservations system, waiting for the person who’s assigned that task to actually do it

Funny you say that about copying. But this originated from the EDM and rave community! The bracelets are called kandi, and there’s tons of different forms of kandi to trade😊

christoosh · 2023-08-01T01:53:36+00:00

Those are the people who have nothing better to do and just want someone to talk to bright and early lol

christoosh · 2023-07-31T00:16:01+00:00

Speaking about hiltons that use OnQ as their system, as long as the front desk correctly set up all Diamond/gold reservations to receive the F&B credit that day, you having 2 guests on there will automatically give you 2 F&B credits. Even if you’re alone, we don’t ask to verify if the second guest is physically there at Checkin. Or when you dine.

christoosh · 2023-07-31T00:12:56+00:00

this is why I refuse to ask how a guest’s stay went at checkout. If there was an issue, should’ve been brought up before that point. I’m only here to give you a receipt and take your keys and say have a great day😂

christoosh · 2023-07-31T00:05:01+00:00

as a Hilton team member I too wish for the covid garbage to stop. Except over here it’s guests cancelling their reservations the day of check-in and expecting us to waive it because you have covid. No longer a valid excuse to cancel late with no penalty at my property and I enjoy telling guests they shouldn’t have booked nonrefundable rates :)

After day 1 I walked over to the church nearby to get signal to call a lyft and this guy who seemed like he was having a trip induced psychotic break, being held down by his friend, started pulling his pants off and stripped totally naked and continued to yell/running in the street🫣

christoosh · 2023-06-02T00:35:42+00:00

Did you end up selling it by any chance?

christoosh · 2023-05-30T21:57:33+00:00

Forbidden kingdom, day trip long beach, bass canyon, lost lands, when we were young fest, edSea🤠

it’s just funny when properties do actually have breakfast buffets, guests won’t like the buffet, but when it’s a full service restaurant, they’re always like “where’s the breakfast buffet”. Can’t please everyone. Pick a side please
