I was at the Monaco in San Francisco over the weekend and recited the secret word at check-in. The clerk told me, "With your Inner Circle upgrade and amenities, I'm not sure what else we can do for you."

I chatted up the front-desk supervisor at wine hour the next day and brought up the exchange. She was apologetic and gave me a $15 minibar credit (on top of Raid the Bar) and an in-room movie credit.
