This is excellent.
How has *wood been about multiple "stays" in the same week? I'd break each trip into 3 or 4 one night stays at the same property if it would work. Or do you have to stay one night using your number and then another without ad inifinitem to maximize this?

It should. All Starpoint-eligible rates are supposed to count, and William has stated in the past that Travelzoo promos (e.g., Fairfax Embassy Row in DC) are point-eligible, despite posting problems on the part of the hotel. You should be able to get credit, even if it might mean a follow-up with SPG post-stay.

Don't worry about it; it's not applicable this year or to this promo.
"Buy 2 get 1 free" is similar to the terms of Hyatt's Faster Free Nights -- but with summer redemption!
(FWIW, prior to last year, Hyatt FFN restricted one-night award redemptions to weekend nights.)

I don't understand a few things. Why make the awards limited to 3 of the 7 days of the week only?
If I've earned an award night & if the hotel has the available rooms, what would it hurt to let me use it on a Tuesday or a Monday?
I'm glad that so many people are happy about this promo, it just doesn't fit well with my travel patterns.

I thought room booked with points do not count as qualifying rate/stay...

Wow, great promotion. Rather short redemption period but that's okay!
I am not fond of hotel hopping (and don't need to do it), but I guess when I am in Bangkok in May for five nights, I should hotel hop between SGS and WGS to get two free weekend nights
