Hmmm, be careful here:

Per the Terms of the promotion, you must choose points for your eligible stay in order to receive credit for free nights with double stay credit OR 3,000 bonus points with double stay credit.
I'm not sure what the implication is here. Maybe you only get stay doubling if you choose points vs miles, but you might be eligible for FFNs? Don't rely on that without confirmation from GPC.

I'm not testing this (I'm still taking points + the 3k points), so if you are, I would get confirmation from GPC first.
