Conclusion
I am eagerly awaiting for the first SPG Keyless & Bluetooth hack that would allow third party to access the guest room without consent (will eventually happen).
Those that received the offer and are staying at any of the hotels that are part of the Keyless initiative, this could be an easy 1,500 bonus points (if they can get the Keyless to work).
Here are the terms and conditions of this offer:
