MR redemptions have really gone downhill, I have been trying to get an award for NYC in December and both SPG and HH have rooms at various properties available in Manhattan but MR has nothing! Yes...before you say it I will redeem with one of the other two programs but I was really looking to use MR points since I am trying to clear out my balance considering all the recent devaluations and changes to the program. Marriott also most be out of the mind to think that the two Courtyards in Manhattan are seriously worth being a Cat. 7 redemption! I wouldn't pay that even if they were available!
