I then spent 2 nights in a independent hotel which was very unique and plush (about $300 for 2 nights). My flight was leaving Thursday evening from Narita, so I took a limo bus to Narita from Tokyo on Wednesday afternoon, stayed at the Narita Hilton for 20K points. I was able to get a 2PM check out. Very nice stay. And I used that time to visit the temples and gardens in Narita which were much more accessible than the ones in Tokyo, much less crowded, and absolutely stunning.

Buy buying a few more points you could really max out your stay in Tokyo with 5 nights in Shinjuku and 1 night in Narita.

I think that would be a great redemption.
Thank you so much! I have decided to defer my Japan trip until next year (Europe this year) but I will keep your recommendations in mind for travel either prior to or after the olympics!
