Besides which they deny most of the time anyway.
All true, but it's still the case that with the new system, you get the fixed $50 credit to use regardless of the price of the room while formerly it was 20% of the rate. It's a counterexample to the hypothesis that the new WOH program is all about focusing on spend.
