I was budgeting $100 per dinner. So now I'm at risk of $100 just going to waste. Not a disaster, but not ideal.
My first instinct was to call hotel to see if they sell Hilton gift card for my remaining $100. But they said they don't.
So what now? Any advice?
I'm thinking to cancel 1 of the nights that was booked with points, and book with my Aspire instead. That way I could at least get full use of my $200, and get my points refunded for a future date.
Could you visit the restaurant 2 nights in a row instead of going to the one that can't bill charges to your room?
