Absolut/Smirnoff type stuff, nothing home brewed in a bathtub. There are no cocktails on the menu, and they’re not willing to do any appreciable mixing. Rum and soda yes, mojoto no. My sense was that they were reluctant to give me even that, except I ordered a rum and a soda and made it clear that I would mix it. As Chihster says, they’re not the most motivated bunch, so probably figured mixing it for me was the path of least resistance, compared to cleaning up any mess I might make. No vouchers and no limits on number of drinks. The hot plate they bring out is forgettable (spring rolls, samosas, etc, usually lukewarm and soggy), and there’s a small buffet with cold cuts/cheese/chips/etc. You just walk in and say Platinum, and they will take your room number and sometimes make you sign a $0 check. I believe this benefit also comes with certain room types, so it can get crowded at times.
