6 nites bonus bucks?
 
Can I use more than 1 bonus bucks if I stay more than 2 nites? 1 buck for each 2 nite stay? Or do I need to make saparate reservetions?

Please experiences not just opinions,thanks

In my opinion, you should be able to use 20 of them on a 1 nite stay for a $2000 Presidential Suite.

In my experience, I've been able to use 1 per 2 nights stayed in the hotel. For example, I used 2 Premium Pounds on a 4 night stay last month. One reservation: no need to break it into two separate two-night reservations and have a little check-out-check-in ritual in the middle.

However, given the fact that many clerks have never seen these certs and aren't too familiar with how to process them, it wouldn't surprise me if someone else has had a different experience. I believe what I did - using 2 certs for 4 nights on 1 reservation number - was totally within the rules though.

Sorry...whenever someone says "I don't want opinions", the first thing I feel the need to do is express my opinion. :D

You can use 1 bonus buck for every 2 days of stay.
Example:
2 days: 1 bonus buck
4 days: 2 bonus bucks
6 days: 3 bonus bucks

I normally give them to the desk on checkout.

There's been a lot of discussion on Bonus Bucks and where/when to use them. Some people claim it's better to present them when checking in; others say hold them until check out.

One good tip is to make copies of them, so that when/if the front desk "misplaces" them, you have a backup. After all, they are equivalent to a hundred-dollar bill. Protect them accordingly.

I go down the before checking out and give the front desk the bonus bucks and state I will return for the updated bill when I check out. This seems to work for me. Never have I been told you need to hand them in when you check-in.
