A week booked with points boost, upgraded to a pool villa
- Breakfast
- $100 credit
- Upgraded
- $250 credit posted
Their take: A great stay with a pool villa upgrade and an easy-to-use credit; they were unsure the Chase markup was worth it, but still saw it as a sensible way to spend points and the Edit credit.
