I'm not sure what sort of upgrade we would've received had we not asked (granted we had been upgraded from ocean view king to an ocean front king already), but we'll probably take the room we get tomorrow as we mainly just wanted a suite for the plunge pool and added space.
I'll keep you posted on the potential additional $44 credit - would be nice to use on a couple mimosas every morning!
Just to give my own DP, I completed a stay that was booked with the Family Funcation rate directly off the Hilton/Conrad site. With that stay, I got $200 resort credit, full breakfast included for two (this is the breakfast you want to go for since it includes the hot items which are actually pretty decent) and as a Diamond MyWay benefit, I got $30 credit ($15 per person - they have reduced the $22 per person credit now to $15, since they have started offering hot items in the "continental" buffet breakfast).
