The lack of upgrades is in the SPG T&C.
a. Upgrades to the best room at Participating Properties at time of check-in, based upon room availability for your entire stay, including Select Standard Suites, except at Aloft, Element and Starwood Vacation Ownership properties.
If this is similar to North American Alofts the rooms are virtually identical. The only upgrade would be to a higher floor.
