Standard Room Hilton reward – charges?

[bthorn]

Hey,
Im trying to make a booking over in the states, when I click through it says Standard Room reward – 70k. But when I go to book its tries to use all my 95k in the pot and still charge me $430 USD – I thought the whole point of the standard room reward is that the stay would be free.

I understand if there are some taxes to pay but the room is only $600 usd so not sure what im doing wrong here.

Maybe there are no standard rooms left and its booking you into a higher category room reward?

Doh, ive just realized, its as im trying to book 2 nights so need to buy the extra points to make it 140k points.

My bad. The heat getting to me already haha.
