How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

Well, I'm only a Pleb Silver with Hilton now, but here's some recent stays:

Hilton Little Queen St, Melbourne
April, 4 nights over Easter
Booked: Family Connecting Room
Received: 1 King, 1 Twin connecting rooms, Breakfast included, two water bottles replenished per room per day

Canopy by Hilton Washington DC
Across the circle from the Aussie embassy.
Booked conference rate through conference accommodation group, USD 349/night
Booked: King room
Received: King room
No water bottles, but each floor has a filtered water and ice station, and a milk-style glass bottle is provided for you to collect water in.

Wellington Doubletree NZ
Two nights, 3 adults
Booked: 2 Queen Delxue room
Received: 2 Queen Delxue room
2 bottles of water in room on arrival, unfortunately one was sparkling. Yuck. A couple of Whittaker's choccies.

I chose the room at the way end of the corridor. No views, barely a window, but a long entrance that made the room feel larger.
To my Teen's disappointment, unlike the DT Christchurch last year, there were no GF cookies available at arrival (2:30am due to flight delay) or even the next day.

Next Hotel Melbourne
1 night, 3 adults
Booked: Exec King 1 Bedroom suite
Received: Exec King 1 Bedroom suite
2 bottles of water in room on arrival. A note card and Koko Black choccies arrived later.
I expected the room to have a foldout sofa bed, but when you book for 3 adults, it includes a complimentary rollaway bed.
We were delighted to be able to check in at 12 midday when we arrived from BNE, before our 2pm matinee at the Regent.
We spent time with family that evening, so didn't attend Aperitivo in the Exec Lounge. Mr Katie did get some drinks from the bar to bring back to the room at 9pm or so.
Exec Lounge brekky was fine for 2 of us, but not-so-great for Teen with sensory issues. Wouldn't even try the bacon. The Teen generally has an omelette at hotel brekky buffets. She ended up making a GF toastie in the QF J lounge, as we left for the airport a bit before 9am.
 
With the Loft rooms, is the loo downstairs?
From the room description: ..." the Loft Rooms have a unique split-level design, featuring a lounge, bathroom and workspace on the lower level and a bedroom on the upper level..."
