This wouldn't be terribly surprising, although I'd be curious if they remove them at the 3x rate or not. I believe when Chase issues refunds, they simply subtract points at the 1x rate instead of any multiple.
You would still receive hotel points for the entirety of the stay, though. I'm using this for a few SPG stays and it will go nicely with the recent SPG promo for bonus points.
