This is beyond a gutting, Marriott nuked it.
It seems like in many cases you are getting 0.5 or less cents per point many times when redeeming in these popular European hotels.
Your post is making me consider re-upgrading to the Chase Sapphire Reserve. The cents are worth a consistent 1.5 cents per point, which is starting to become more attractive...
