However, most discussions around the value of *wood points agree they are much more valueable that Marriott points. As much as 3 times, thus now we are comparing 150K Marriott to 144K for *Wood; about equal. Amex seems to agree with this: they transfer 1:1 to Marriott, and 3:1 to *wood.
I just want to know how you got a 5 night stay for 48,000 points?
The Princeville is a Starwood property, and takes 48,000 *Wood points for 5 nights.
