You do NOT qualify for the 5th night free in any way. You MUST book a 5 night POINTS AWARD reservation to get the 5th night free. It is a bonus ONLY for POINTS awards. The 5th night free does NOT apply to $$ or points/cash award reservation.

If you book less than the 5 award nights, no discounts.

You could have checked to see if there is a discounted rate for the cash nights (MVP, AAA, etc).
