Hilton charging for early check in now?

I just booked a room for later this month for one night at the Palmer house in chicago. The discounted nor-1 options came up like they usually do for PH and there was one for an early check in for $25. It said normal check in time is 3 p.m. and had the NOR-1 option for $25 for an early check in between 8 and noon. I have never checked in at 8 a.m. before but there have been times I have arrived at 11 a.m. and been given a check in if the room was available with no problem at all.

I hope this won't be the norm. This isn't a guaranteed early check in either. It's like the other NOR-1 upgrades, charged if space is available. If the property already has the room available, why are they charging for an early check in? There is realy no additional work on the propertys part for this.
