The 500 miles is the standard Platinum Amenity offer, i.e. not in lieu of the $100 Bonus Bucks cert.

I did (that's what the room rate additional information shows), but they didn't honor it. The night manager insisted the reservation must have been guaranteed with a VISA in addition to paying with a VISA, and that there was a minimum two-night stay requirement, therefore no Bonus Bucks, no breakfast.
A piece of advice: anyone who opts for the Bonus Bucks Stay for Breakfast offer should bring a print-out of the room rate description and the offer details!
Awaiting answer to an online complaint I filed with Marriott regarding this incident.
