What's the best method to use to cancel the extra nights? Usually the spg reps say, that they see the hotel has a min stay requirement?
Also, have you done so recently?

I hope your joking the hotel is breaking many rules of it's contract with starwoods by requiring 7 night minimums and blocking out availability for almost all nights!

Does anyone find availability? Website just says call about awards and when you call they say there are none (at least in June).

I've been having a back and forth with SPG about this for the last 2 weeks.
Hotel management said they're working it out with SPG, and SPG is still investigating.

I'll update you when I hear an answer.
