I don't think I'm entitled to anything beyond program benefits ... as I'm staying 125 plus nights a year, that's 4 PM checkout, suite upgrades without games/begging, and a real breakfast. That's really not anything special ... just basic program benefits.

For hotels that deliver that, its a real revenue enhancement as many of us will stay at that hotel more often, rather than stay at hotels that cheat.
