Previous Promo:
-500 App Bonus per Stay
-Double Points
New Promo:
-500 Bonus per night (after 5 Nights and at every 5Night interval)
-Double points
It is slightly better if you rack up longer stays rather than short stays.

not terrible, i kind of dig it - with the 500 pt per night bonus, its really like a triple point promo (at least for the rates i book).
could do without all the opt outs (seems less the usual though, i may be wrong however). thats really my biggest beef

Lots of opt-outs, but otherwise looks like a decent promo. No complaints here.

When entire cities like Boston, Manhattan proper, San Fran are opted out... It's lame. Previous opt out discussions were around the franchises... But now company owned properties are opting out....
