I'm curious... How do the front desk staff assign rooms when ppl are booking via RCI vs Wyndham vs other r timeshares. Some resorts are owned by multiple companies and some also have private owners as well. Do the booking staff or front desk staff have much say or leeway in it? Can Anybody in the hotel industry comment?
What has been your experience when you book into a Wyndham mixed ownership resort? Did it differ when you booked it via RCI?
Likewise, does rci/hilton/holiday inn/sheraton /etc... Treat an RCI-Wyndham owner differently than a non-timeshare booked room (eg Expedia booking).
My gut... Expedia and travel websites get the worse rooms. Competing timeshare owner may get better rooms and vip on your own exchange gets you the best rooms. Non-vip but developer purchase gets you a good room. A resale owner is on par or a bit below par of a retail Non-vip owner.
I would love to hear what you think and your own experiences in booking via Wyndham and via RCI or II.
Thanks
