Thanks
Someone else already did a calculation, but if you needed the Marriott stay then it would be a great deal. Marriott has more airline options for transfer than MR (for example the Southwest companion pass), though SPG has more options than Marriott.
But for Marriott travel packages it is 1:1 point to mile conversion after you take out the 7-night stay cost. Which is the best deal ever!
