100th night gift
I was recently given a 100th night stay "bonus" award at a JW property.
Choice of:
1) $100 Marriott Gift Card
2) 1 Free night at the property
3) 20,000 MR points
Wonder if anyone got the same award at other Marriott properties, also should I just go for the points?

20,000 MR points seems better

Depending on the property's rate, the free night might be more valuable as the points (assuming you want to stay at this property again for leisure) since JW properties require more than 20000 points for a free night. The points gives you more flexibility and count towards your total lifetime points earned, one of the criteria for lifetime elite status.

I have stayed at over 100 nights at an individual Marriott, Rennaissance and Residence Inn, and have never gotten a gift for it, so I don't think it's s standard. Perhaps at the JW brand?
