Hmmm, I have observed some changes. Was able last week to book a night at RB in Germany for 30k points while the room rate was like 120€. Just had to pay 7€ tourism tax, which funny enough I got refunded to my card at checkout „since the whole stay was paid with points“.

Also this week in RB Hamburg, I used points to discount the absurd high room rate and the value for points was pretty good at double the value they used to have few weeks back.

Maybe there are positive changes incoming?

Or just random glitches in the booking engine. The webpage is still a mess and barely works.
