Conclusion
This is a great promotion, but probably highly targeted. No one was lucky here at MtM as we all received a message saying “You are not eligible for this promotion.”
Take a quick look and let us know if you are targeted.

I did not get it. Off topic has anyone had issues trying to redeem Bonvoy annual free night? Mine was near expiration date lucky I travelled through ATL and used it to book a night at the St. Regis. I did online booking and booked the room with my eCertificate. The hotel showed also showed a rate of 50k points. A week later I checked my account and noticed 60k points were deducted for the stay. I wrote to CS and was informed sorry we are unable to fix this issue as St. Regis is a Cat 7 location 60k point and the eCertificate is only valid for up to 50k points. I went just yesterday to check the same hotel for random date in Dec & Jan the hotel is still showing 50k points and it still lets me book it with my now unused eCertificate. I wrote the CS back again but they basically blowing me off saying sorry its unfixable. I only booked that room for the sole purpose to use my eCertificate before it expired I for sure did not want to blow 60k points on it.
Just for fun, I checked, saw the offer and registered. Given the free night awards are only valid for 6 months, however, am unlikely to pursue. OTOH, with Hyatt’s major overlapping promotions, am planning on a (Hyatt) mattress run starting at the end of the year.
My wife got it (gold), I didn’t (platinum).
I was targeted, but this is what it said in the detailed description of the promotion: “A Free Night Award is good for one night, for one room only (for a studio or one-bedroom at Residence Inn, TownePlace Suites and Element)”
I got it. The paid stays have to be by March 31. Not sure I’ll have any organic travel before then. I’m considering whether I should mattress run 2 $75 nights locally to get the two certs, but without concrete travel plans, the short expiry on them has me thinking maybe not.
I received the email from them yesterday . I hope to use this promotion in January
