Prive for us was "unlimited". But it's hard to predict until you check in, check what the actual benefit there is with your TA.
I just checked out of Andaz 5th avenue last week and it also was "unlimited" under Prive although we didn't go wild. (added aBowl of fruit one day, a bagel another day etc) The only issue I had was they applied the parts of $100 prive credit to the breakfast. On check out I had them correct it and it finally got done after two visits by the FD to the manager on duty. The only part of breakfast that wasn't covered was additional tip beyond the 18%. (although some servers didn't add the 18% service charge so the extra did come off of those mornings.) I think I paid $5 x 1 for one of the mornings and nothing extra for the 2nd and third morning. The card they put in the key case for Globalist did list 1 + 1 and a drink so maybe their is some confusion when you are a globalist versus the Prive rate.
