Thank you Yellowdog, I wanted to come back and mention that I called the hotel and gave them my Starwood Preferred guest number and requested double beds, they said it would be an additional charge of $10 extra, since it was purchased through priceline, but since there's no charge for parking, I'm gonna take it as a wash. :) The lady answering the phone was borderline giving major tude cause it was purchased through priceline tho... Which I've never had any problems with past Priceline booking and Starwood properties stay, we were even given an upgrade at no charge when we stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki, so I'm definitely drafting up a nice letter to management on this one.

We mostly see good reports from the Starwood hotels when it come to upgrades. I allways stay at some Starwood hotel on my longer trips and never had a problem with this when showing my SPG card. In my book has allways Starwood been on of the best when it comes to upgrades.

But i will add that we also see increasing reports of members that have to pay for double beds (not only for Starwood hotels).

Yes, I loved staying at the Sheraton Waikiki and Sheraton San Diego Marina!!! both times we went through HOTWIRE and PRICELINE respectively and both never mentioned where we booked the hotel upon check in and both offered upgrades, The Sheraton Waikiki was gracious enough to offer us free upgrades. <3 <3 <3 Very Welcoming hotels.

Yes, I don't mind paying extra for double beds, takes more work to clean up two beds rather than one. I totally understand.

I went looking at tripadvisor's comments on the Sheraton Carlsbad and heard mixed things about other's stay, the reviewers say there is a resort fee $12 to use the pool and grounds. And there's an additional $12 for parking or $16 for valet. Which is pretty normal for San Diego Hotels. So I wanted to post here for fyi to other people who are booking this hotel.
