So it turns out my "free night" was actually a discount equivalent to average of previous 10 stays, because next hotel cost more. So not free, but a significant discount, and had I stayed at a cheaper property, it would have been free.

That sounds like a fine program for someone else. I would have to pay for 100 nights to get a 10 day vacation's lodging for free. Essentially a 10% store credit. I'm really looking for the credit card program that will get me actual free rooms. Which program gives the most global access is the question.
