How many nights did you spend in Marriott hotels over the last three years? The answer would depend on how much the three nights cost and how much value you get out of them. If you find 5 additional suite nights, additional points, the possibility of better upgrades and United silver more than the additional costs for the three nights, then chasing a higher status level makes sense.
