It's actually about the minimum point value that I would use before to book a reward stay at Hilton. Now if they would apply the same value to premium room it would be better. Right now it is like:

Standard room with no view:
$150 per night or 30000 PT

Premium room with Ocean View
$199 per night or 70000 PT

When paying with points, you don't have to pay resort fee and local taxes. So that $150 room that would have cost over $200 yield about .7 cents per point. It is actually pretty good. But for premium reward, I think they are using .3 cents or even lower.
