I don't think you have anything to worry about. other than the possible stay/no stay issue being discussed in this thread.
I agree with
Notenut. Especially if you have a confirmed reservation that you've got printed out, setting forth the rate you will pay for your stay. I don't see how they can change horses in the middle of the stream, so to speak. I seriously doubt anyone will ask you "who do you know that works for Hilton?" or similar question.
