They got the Boundless a few months earlier planning to upgrade to the Ritz-Carlton, but struggled to find hotels where the free night reward worked, though replies showed they misread per-stay point prices.

They had the five sign-up free nights on their Boundless and found them hard to use, eventually booking Los Angeles hotels without resort fees. They find Marriott points poor value and will likely not renew the card.

They receive the annual free night certificate on the card but often struggle to find a property that fits under the point cap, and did not know about topping up with points.

It's how well reviewed Chase Marriott Bonvoy Boundless is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a product needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed products here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
Category: Travel rewards card. Type: Hotel credit card. Fees: $95 annual fee. Rates & rewards: 6x points at hotels participating in Marriott Bonvoy; 3x on the first $6,000 a year in combined grocery, gas and dining purchases; 2x on all other purchases.
