RateBuddy Verdict
The Good
- The Annual Free Night Award at participating properties easily justifies the $120 annual fee.
- Receiving 15 Elite Night Credits annually gives a massive head start toward reaching higher elite status tiers.
- Exceptional 5X earning rate on eligible purchases at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels.
The Trade-offs
- Does not include emergency travel medical or trip cancellation/interruption insurance.
- The base earning rate is paid in Marriott points, which may have less flexible value than standard cash back or premium bank points.
