If you are P you will get breakfast coupons, evening cocktail/ light food access to exec lounge from 5:30~7:30PM and swimming pool/fitness pass. So you don't need to be on executive level floor for these extras if you are a P...but executive floor rooms might be a little better then standard if you want to secure such a room before arriving by using more C&P as you posted earlier.

Hope this info helps you. Any other Questions about this property please ask as I've stayed there many times over many years.
Barefootdr: I'm SPG Gold, so we're planning to upgrade with points for exec level privileges. We've also decided to opt for a "family room" with four beds rather than the Japanese style rooms, since in the latter they can only provide 3 futons and there are 4 of us. So we'll be using extra points for that upgrade from the regular C&P rate as well. Still comes out to be fewer points than a room paid exclusively through points, and that way hopefully all of us can eat in the hotel restaurant and use the pool. I'm not sure what floor the family rooms are on but hopefully they're recently renovated!
