We used points for a 5 night stay in Denver for our daughters wedding which was free. However, this year we are using our points for hotel stays in Rome, Venice, and Paris. Choice hotels in Europe usually reduce the number of points per night from 25,000 or 20,000 to 8,000 to 10,000 per night in the fall. Check the Euro rate at these hotels and you will know why to save your points.

It makes a wonderful trip affordable.
