Thanks.
The key to understanding this is knowing what the property considers to be a child. Standard Starwood family policy is that children, 17 and under, stay free in existing bedding with a paying adult. If a property has a different family policy, they must state it on their Announcements page. In this case, there is no mention of a different family policy, so you can assume that a child is anyone who is 17 and under.
That being determined, the award is then limited to two adults and children stay free. However, adding any additional bedding or a third adult may add additional charges to the award booking.
I hope that helps.
