I logged into my account today to find that it is now 140,000 points for the 5 night stay. I thought that reservations made before the category change would still be honored at the old rate? Is that not correct? I sent an email to Marriott and almost immediately received a canned response about the category changes and nothing specific about my situation. Very frustrating...
