2 nights offer is better than 40,000 points, you can use this at any of their most exclusive properties. The most exclusive properties require at least 30,000 points per night, so I'm not certain why the preference for 40,000 points bonus.

I agree two free nights is better than the points. You got lucky!

How is the scenario a "switch and bait"? Didnt really switch from anything. But I agree with others, 2 nights free has a higher value, if you stay at a higher CAT hotel.

I never even travel out of state so I wouldn't even know where to use the two free nights lol. Unless there's something spectacular in california, which i will be visiting soon that's a very high category maybe?

Hyatt has high end properties all over California. Use Hyatts own site to see what is in the area you will be visiting.

Two nights are not always better than 40k.

1. The nights can expire if your plans change. The points don't (though there may be devaluations).

2. Not everyone is going to stay at premium properties. Five nights at a Cat 2 may be more convenient.

They also have occasionally done targeted 50k offers, and even 50k + $50 ones.
