Westin all they way

like

The Westin opened sept 25 2016. I haven't stayed but have talked to the people who built it and it is supposed to be really top notch. They have a roof top bar that is supposed to be excellent

Meant to say annoyed that Amex Plat removed the SPG gold benefit. EY1 have you stayed in the new Westin? It's for a pleasure anniversary trip with my husband.

Westin. The Doubletree is gross and the Hilton by Bridgestone is ok but not if you can get into the Westin.

I have a room booked at both Westin & Hilton.

No I have not. It is brand new. Zero reviews on the hotel's website. I prefer a new Westin to a new Hilton. The Hilton downtown Nashville is a bit older. Diamond at Hilton could really impact your experience with Hilton, especially if you let them know it's an important stay.

Thanks guys!!

Vanderbilt Marriott is in a good spot. Also the Renaissance allows you to walk to downtown if interested

Platinum dropped the spg gold? When?

April 2016. Total BS.

Anyone do the 15 nights mandatory quarantine in Taiwan? I need to go back for visa reasons and looking up which hotel to stay at. Thinking of staying in Marriott for the points but would love any recs! Can I use someone’s Marriott Bonvoy Ambassador Elite contact or something? Overwhelmed with this whole process 🥲

How many points? Caribbean Marriott Cat 3 property, 5 nights. They have an issue with the boiler so no hot water and shower stops in between. Ice cold showers for 4 days in a row 🥶. Hotel phones don’t work because network is down and only local channels work on tv. Last night they had a huge leak in the lobby. They kept knocking stuff all night to fix it and then left a large floor fan running. I understand it’s tough reopening so don’t want to push, plus they upgraded our room at check in.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
