Well the new T&Cs do say that if a standard room is available for cash, it's available for points. I have just checked on a hotel i am trying to book for a saturday night stay. It's a residence inn and they have studio rooms available for sale for just saturday night so it's not a minimum night restriction that's causing this. But looking at the flexible date calendar, they have no points availability for any saturday night...even though they have points availability for every other night in september. Once things quiet down on the PP phone line, will call to test out their statement that if it's available for cash it's available for points. This seems like a pretty cut and dry test... will keep everyone posted.
