In #3 I really just wanted the charges reversed for bottles of water that I didn't use. No request for points.

#2 was exactly what you said. The FD asked how the room was and I told them they should have maintenance look at the shower. Didn't expect anything at all and was surprised at how apologetic the manager was. The gesture was enough that it's my first choice in that city now. It's consistently sold out which is probably why management is on the ball.

#1 (no pun intended), never seen anything like it and hope to never again. Didn't see a single point and would've preferred to just have had housekeeping done their job and never had a puddle of someone else's pee in the room.
I had a room at a SHS when it was 7 degrees outside the heat stop working over night and was very cold by very early morning. Would that be a 5000 or 10,000 point payout? A free night at the property cost 35,000 points. Also should mention they knew about the heat problem from the previous stay but was believed to be fixed by engineering before the room was given to me. Any feed back on this would be appreciated because similar to the OP I am now curious about service recovery payouts.
