do you really ask if this is free, if that is free? Really? Do you ask if the upgrade is free before you take it? Lol.

If they advertise it as butler service, and from the same chain, it better be the same butler service that guests know and use.
I can just see him now asking what services are free and what are not. Must make him or her seem like he belongs at a StR.

Are the towels free for use too?

The real litmus test is reasonableness. What is reasonable to ask a butler?

​​​Is coffee really that much to ask? It is unreasonable to ask the front desk agent or a concierge for coffee. A butler? I think that's reasonable.
