I used this at the Hilton Warsaw earlier this year. I wasn't due to arrive until about 10pm, but was able to check in in the morning.
I had been pre-upgraded to the Executive Floor and got a room on the top floor adjacent to the lounge. I've no idea if I'd have missed out on that room by leaving it to check in.
It should more accurately be called "Select Your Room"...other check in functions still get performed at the front desk/Lounge depending on property.
