Reservation still says free on my account reservation details. Does this mean I am "safe" to use the free night? Or could hotel deny it? Have not heard of any recent data points.
Not sure about your specific predicament, but you're lucky. My cert is Book By June 7. There is no stated Stay By date, but from searching various cities, and then confirming by calling in, I have to stay by June 16th. Queries for June 17 and onwards in numerous cities show no room availability at all. This is my last uncapped cert. I also hope that I'll have my capped cert by June 10th ish. I have an expensive 40k hotel in mind for a desired mid June stay (HI Vancouver BC).
