It may be worth discussing, on the topic of breakfast fees for platinum members, when was our last stay.

My last stay at this property was in 2016, and at that point I had one guest and both of us were not penalized for having a hot breakfast. E.g. there was no additional cost for having a hot breakfast vs. continental.

Perhaps other members can chime in here with respect to their last hotel stay date and their experiences (some upthread have indicated they were charged for a hot breakfast, and others such as myself were not)
