I'm actually really curious as to just how good this rate is!
Interesting that the booking didn't say it was non-refundable even though the rate description did. That was the sole reason why I didn't try booking it myself.

Given the data you've provided, it would seem that this was a wholesale rate that Hyatt provided to other internet reservations companies to resell...which would explain why the prices were so low when they were coming up.

Glad you were able to sort this out!
