I'm just commenting on the inconsistencies of BW's elite perk practice, nothing else. What's the point of announcing these perks, when they in many cases obviously don't plan to offer these to their elites once they check in? And by the way, I haven't considered BW for their excellence in whatever area (number of properties, price etc.), but merely to have more choice and to try a different chain for once. The point of my original post was to get an idea of what to expect, and I have gotten a fair amount of insight out of this post, so in that manner I'm enlightened (although not in a uniquely positive way). Again, thanks all.
