I'm not too pleased with this. We didn't want to walk over 10 mins each way with our newborn to Sunset Grill. Can the hotel just randomly provide the benefit at an outside establishment?
SPG is pathetic.

This "free" breakfast benefit is creating more negative publicity than anything.

Rule of thumb:
international properties-choose breakfast
domestic properties (incl CA)-choose points
