I also saw this and my eyebrows raised. I was even more surprised that over half of them were already scheduled (though the ones that are scheduled tend to be the cheaper ones where $120 might mostly cover the costs). The ones that remain are the really expensive ones (I see one in my area that would be over $300 for just the room - which means that this wouldn't even cover half the cost of the hotel).
I suppose if you were going to stay there anyway, and eat dinner and breakfast there anyway - maybe?
And as others have stated - it is very clear that they know that $120 will not cover the cost of the room + taxes in most cases, and that $120 is the reimbursed amount. It also states that you must eat (and report on) dinner and breakfast and that a maximum of $50 is reimbursed for both meals.
The interesting thing is that these are the same rules for all properties in a chain that varies widely at price point. In some cases this could be very close to covering things at 100%, in other cases - it's like 25-30% of what it's going to cost you.
Will be fascinating to see if these get scheduled or if they up the reimbursement for the more expensive ones.
