One-night Labor Day staycation for 60k points
- Breakfast
- $100 credit
- No early check-in
- Late checkout
- Resort fee at the hotel
Their take: A very good value night once the credits were counted, since they spent nothing out of pocket, though the resort was overloaded and the room was not ready until after 4pm.
