Wait 2-3 days, then call the line again to shorten you stay to the nights you want precisely on points. Whether you have enough points or still need the points advance, globalist line/concierge will adjust to your selected nights.

takes maybe..10 minutes by calling. Just a suggestion
Interesting, thanks. I've tried to make a points advance reservation at a SLH as a Globalist and was told that I couldn't do that at SLH properties, only at Hyatt ones.

Without having tried it, I'd guess 50-50 chance an agent can shorten an already booked SLH reservation to circumvent a minimum stay requirement. If I do try it, I'll report back.
