I agree that I usually receive better service and upgrades at the non-Hilton owned properties. The Hilton corporate owned properties are the ones that seem to squeeze breakfast benefits, upgrades, and other perks (other than points) the most. Starwood's policies are a different matter.

The HGI TS hotel doesn't have suites. How do you know that they had a "better" room available?
