So here is a prime example of The Edit ripoff:
Madison, WI - 2nt weekend stay. No Edit hotels but Chase offers the following rates.
AC Marriott = $392 all-in on Marriott. Edit = $494 or approx 30k points (.015 cpp). As Marriott Plat I get free breakfast.
Hyatt Place = 18k points on Hyatt. Edit = 44k Chase UR (note Chase UR transfer at 1:1 to Hyatt). Everyone who stays here gets free breakfast
To be sure these are both listed as Point Boost but not The Edit so I guess I would not even receive the $250 rebate or free breakfast
Have not checked Amex yet
