Can you say UPGRADE?

Jeff and I arrived at the Portofino Hotel and were excited to celebrate our upcoming anniversary.

I had scored us a really good deal on LivingSocial.com which got us 2 nights for the price of one.  I opted for the minimal priced upgrade to an ocean view room versus a marina view room.

We checked and my very social husband started talking to the manager and mentioned we had stayed here our wedding weekend, our 1 year anniversary and again this year.  As a treat, he gave us a late – 5 pm – checkout on Sunday and the girl helping us upgraded us from a regular room to a Jr. Suite.  NICE!!!

The Jr Suites have a small dining area and the bed is facing the ocean versus facing the side wall.  Now we can lay on bed and watch TV and the ocean!

The only bummer so far…noisy neighbors.  WE CANNOT ESCAPE!!  They are 2 rooms down and playing bumping music and smoking on their balcony.  I swear, wherever we go…
