Noob here- What is the ballpark average points per night for a regular room/how much is too much for a redemption? 18k SPG points for Sheraton standard room too much or reasonable? 🤔

7k is usual for Sheraton. 10-12k for a nicer Sheraton- which does not exist.

A JW Marriott is the SPG equivalent of 13-15k points, and not many hotels are better than a JW.

You need to compare it to the standard rate offered. But usually that is high
