If this is a "work," meaning they were working in conjunction with the Rio to promote this suite and the Rio's renovations, all under the guise of a lucky random upgrade, then that's extremely lame. They'd essentially be treating their audience as low-IQ nitwits.
Since this couple apparently writes about credit card points, travel, etc., I sense a "work."
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
work:
(noun): Anything planned to happen, or a "rationalized lie".
(verb): To deceive or manipulate an audience in order to elicit a desired response.
