The 4th night benefit would save money, but it only ends up being $10 - $20 per reservation due to this.
- You have to call the Citi concierge, and it takes a looong time to make/cancel bookings through them on the phone
So for me, I'm leaning towards cancelling the Prestige card.
I have had success in asking the Citi concierge to find AAA rates or apply rate codes for SPG properties (e.g. Z3R).
YMMV of course.
