(EXPIRED) Back again: Stay 2 nights, earn 1 free at Best Western in the US, Canada, or Caribbean

Best Western is offering a free night certificate for your next stay when you register for its latest promotion and complete 2 qualifying nights between February 18 and April 20, 2020. Note that qualifying nights must be completed at properties in the US, Canada, and the Caribbean and your free night certificate must be redeemed within the same region. The free night certificate expires quickly, but this could still be a decent opportunity if you have a good use in mind.

The Deal

Quick Thoughts

This deal could be pretty good if you can complete two cheap nights and then leverage the free night certificate in an expensive market. Note that the two nights required can be completed in a single stay, which makes it even easier to complete than a promotion requiring two stays.

The geographic restrictions on this apply to both qualifying nights and the free night certificate: all stays related to this promotion must be completed within the US, Canada, and the Caribbean.

The biggest catch here is that the free night certificate expires 70 days after being issued. The terms indicate that the free night certificate will be issued within 2-3 weeks of completing the nights for the promotion. You’ll have to keep a close eye on your email and be able to use the certificate relatively quickly. Further, I’m not sure how easy it is to use the certificate: you’ll need to call Best Western to redeem it and it is subject to availability. I would guess that you may need some flexibility in terms of when and where you’d be looking to use it.

Still, since Best Western has plenty of cheap locations as well as properties in most major cities, I would guess that one could come out pretty well ahead. I probably won’t complete this promotion myself, but I’ll still register for it just in case.
