I see value in an expanded set of properties in Europe that give elite night credit for cash bookings. SLH properties were very difficult to book using points, I just didn't see them as a legitimate option for awards.

I've only really looked at Barcelona in the Fall, but the MMS options are far better than SLH. In just this city alone it expands elite earning options by 21 great hotels vs 5 SLH.
