Everything above is updated.
That's incorrect. You only get points and stays credit if you book directly with the hotel. You are still entitled to elite benefits if you book with a third-party site, except opaque bookings (where you don't know the hotel until after you book).

It's already mentioned; I don't tend to put in things like "hot food is of variable quality" because (a) it gets cluttered and (b) it might be a once-off.

Hilton Colombo
Hilton Colombo gives full "American" breakfast in the lounge or you can take full breakfast in the restuarant. We chose the lounge and it was pretty good with eggs made to order.
But, why do they call it "American breakfast" when there was cold cuts (German), beans and tomatoes (English), and assorted Asian dishes available as well?

Update to Hilton Conquistador in Tucson, AZ:
No longer restricted to pastries (as it was briefly last year, not even bagels or toast!)--now basically the whole "cold" buffet:
orange juice, coffee, milk, hot oatmeal, fresh fruit/whipped cream, bagels, toast, pastries and yogurt basically but you can buy up to hot full buffet for aboout $9 or use against other menu items (each voucher worth 9.68? per guest). This is not as good as it used to be when they first became a Hilton but works for me now.

A very polite reminder to please specify the state (two letter abbreviations are fine) for hotels in the USA, except the most obvious major cities (New York, Boston, Chicago, LA, Miami, and similar). I can look them up but it saves time when updating a stack of posts if you mention the name upfront.
