I went to bed last night with my Dell S2722DGM monitor working perfectly, but when I woke up, it wouldn't power on at all. I've tested the power cord with my spare monitor, and it works fine, so I don't think it's the cable. Could it be an issue with the monitor itself, or is it just getting old? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

It might be worth checking if a power surge affected it. Sometimes that can fry electronics without any warning!
Have you tried completely disconnecting the power? Try holding down the power button for about 30 to 60 seconds to clear any residual electricity, then plug it back in to see if it starts up. Sometimes that does the trick!
Are you using the same power cable and wall socket for both monitors? If it works with the spare, it might not be the cord at all!
Yeah, I'm just unplugging the cord from the broken one and plugging it into the spare.
