And this is what I didn't realize myself. I had always assumed that the MVC Owners package was including a night free on a 5 night package, but that's not really the case. If you're getting a cat 1-5, and don't want the 7 nights, it is a bit of a difference, but not as good as most wouldn't probably expect.
