Please double check into this card. With the 2 for 1 nights it is the best credit card out there right now, provides you with gold (not a great benefit), and provides you with plenty of points...including for the Rad Blu in Paris. Don't waste 75k points by booking a room for two nights that you could have paid only one night for!
