Exactly. It doesn't say anything about the benefits that supposedly are provided by the fee being unavailable because you aren't paying the fee. If that were the case, it would say something more along the lines of "Destination fee exempt, and the benefits normally included with the fee will be available for purchase at additional cost." IMO if the rate is "Destination fee exempt" you are not being told that you won't get the benefits, only that you won't have to pay for them. Maybe the hotel has decided to give you the benefits because you're a regular guest, have elite status, or for some other reason. This is something that I'd love to test in court.
