I TOTALLY ECHO what Mardi Gras says.
That said....the current plan is to reduce the number of Marriott Platinum's. and to "try" to execute on a "higher level". We have seen this fail before, but the higher ups...not the staff...had made it clear to me. They want the 1k$+ people. not like us owners are not.....
and yes, I am one of those people who spend too much time in Marriott hotels. but have never turned points there.
But the people that "maybe they think their entitled to a private pool" because they are 2 of 20 in the hotel....meh
