For booking marriot hotels, should I use my CSR (3% redemption), or should I use my Bonvoy Boundless (6%) via Chase?

Just so people know, if you don’t value Marriott points that much, Uber Barclays will give you 3% cash back on hotels with no annual fee

You still get the Marriott points from your stays of course, just not from the dollar spend cause you get cashback

From a valuation perspective (how much each point is worth), the numbers I found say that using the CSR I think? I also read you can transfer from Chase Ultimate Rewards to Bonvoy at a 1:1 rate, but didn’t find anything about the opposite direction

Values are usually around (varies on how you use them of course):

Marriott: .008
Chase UR: .018
