Free parking for Globs, yes, a nice perk while it lasts for three more days and it's allowed me to stay at properties I would ordinarily avoid -- I refuse to pay $30+ a night to park a damn car even if it's OPM and that usually puts me over $150 -- but I wouldn't expect Hyatt to make this a permanent Glob benefit.
I know I’d rather have something like that than the Club Access Awards.

I’d be perfectly happy with a straight 50% discount for Globs on parking on paid stays, as a permanent benefit.
It drives in more revenue for Hyatt in the long run Anyways because I know that many Globalists avoid properties with hefty parking charges. They’d be much more likely to stay and spend with Complimentary or half off parking.
I know as a Glob myself prior to the pandemic the only time I’d stay at a property charging $30+ for parking would be an award stay. I’d have been happy to pay the cash rates but with the free parking on award stays only it pushes Globs to only book award stays at those properties.

A decent promo. Moved my Hilton stays to Hyatt. For 10 nights at USD41++ per night, I receive a 2665 points for stay including Globalist bonus, 10000 promo points, 10000 Milestone Rewards points(not choosing TSU) and Cat.1-4 Certificate. Refund points value for me is USD340 plus Free Night voucher.

I’ve never seen one below $50 and I’ve searched and searched.
Must be a property in Mexico or Brazil, definitely not US.
As many have said this promo is most definitely aimed for stays at the lowest priced (both cash rate and lowest Category) properties.

It does indicate those things, but again I’ve still never seen a Hyatt hotel base rate in the US under $50. Plus taxes are usually 10-15% so that’s let’s say $6 and resort or whatever fees are waived for Globalists so they don’t matter much.

For Hyatt's own branded hotels, Hyatt has some cheap Hyatt named properties in India. Like sub-$50 ... some Hyatt Place with a rate as low as $31/night. At some points I had booked a bunch of nights at that cheap Hyatt Place in India, but never got there myself. Unfortunately I won't be making it there during Q2.

Hyatt's MGM/mLife-affiliated properties have resort fees. I had assumed that resort fees aren't waived at mLife/MGM properties for being Globalist.

If you find a HH or HP in the US for sub $50 send it to me, because I’ve been searching for months for one.

Just what I assumed that it wouldn’t be in the US.

I have to correct, the total price is currently slightly less than USD42 with taxes and fees, net price is below USD40. It will be different when the stay starts due to the currency fluctuation but hopefully not much. ++ means net price before any taxes and fees.

Of course corporate rate plans and negotiated rates may be lower.
I’m not sure if it’s guidance provided by Hyatt Corporate but I haven’t seen a rate lower than $50 at any US Hyatt published on Hyatt.com.
I did a BRG for a 7 night stay in Q3 that got the rate at a HH down to $48 in Texas. So yes, it’s definitely possible, but I have never seen a publicly available published rate under $50 at any US property.
