So I went down to the front desk tonight and asked the FD agent if this is all that I need for the breakfast tomorrow (sat). He looked up my room to make sure of my status and said that they only do the free breakfast M-F but not on the weekends. And the reason is because they don't have a concierge lounge, and if they did, it would only be open M-F, not on the weekends. Does that make sense to anyone? Shouldn't Golds and Plats have CL access, or free breakfast if it's closed, 7 days a week?
Sounds like you might be at the IAD Suites.....?? If so, I have gotten breakfast (i am a Plat Premier) every time i have stayed there, 99% of the time it's on weekends, but they may have stopped that......

However, breakfast or lounge access is M-F so no, you are not guaranteed that 7 days a week.....
