Happy to take a free night but worried there’s some annual fee accruing somewhere that I’ve lost track of.
The other most likely source of free nights is if you have a Chase Marriott card open. If both Amex and Chase say you don't, then may be a clerical error in your favor. It's also possible you received a free night directly from Marriott for some reason or another, possibly including as a 75-night choice benefit, or as some sort of promotion or freebie (Marriott sent a bunch of elite members free $30-50 gift cards out of the blue recently, I suppose it's also possible they're sending out free nights to some people?).
