Hey, it'd be ~$40 for the points, plus a cup of hotel coffee thrown in for free! (And, actually, a $5 Starbucks card if you do a Sunday - Thursday night stay, if that's your chosen Extras option.)
It does make some sense if there's even a small use case for the hotel room, though. I wouldn't pay $50 for a room for our Thanksgiving travels without a bonus, but the 10,000 bonus makes the hotel free (and then some) so I don't mind breaking up the drive a bit to make that work.
