Points booking? Fees or?
I recently made several POINTS room reservations for several cities in Ireland and have received confirmation E-mails from some of the hotels mentioning the room rate of 25 with no mention of points. Is this normal and perhaps the 25 is the amount CP reimburses the hotels? Or do I need to worry this is addition to the points paid? A sample below of part of one of the Emails. Thanks

In my Ireland stays using Choice points, my e-mailed reservation confirmations did not look like the one in your post. Mine looked like the reservation confirmation I would get if I made a reservation for Amarillo using points. (I haven't stayed in all the Choice hotels in Ireland; maybe some of them routinely send confirmations like the one in your post.)
I was never asked to pay a cent by a Choice hotel for a stay using points. Everything always went smoothly at check in and check out.

But those are not the "rate", those are additional fees. So none of those things should explain what's in the reservation above.
