Very interesting, then.

I was at this property 2 weeks ago on a last-minute 1-night reservation, and the SPG app showed I was upgraded to the panoramic suite, with butler service, full breakfast, etc etc.

Upon check-in, I was met with extreme confusion by the Front Desk, who said that they didn't have butler service, and I'd have to choose between my 500-point amenity or breakfast. Front Desk asked me to send them the confirmation screenshot, and then ignored me for the rest of the night. I ended up checking out early, but the FDM then emailed and apologized profusely about the confusion.

I still don't know what my expectations should be at this property...what exactly does the butler service provide? Is it St. Regis-esque?
