Marriotts Suck!

I'm in Dallas this week meeting with my boss to get some back ground information on my new client. I'm staying at the Marriott Las Colinas, one of the newer Marriott properties around this area I guess, at least thats what the website tells me. I have Silver status with Marriott which is pretty easy to get but it nets you next to nothing. Anyway, I'm at a regular Marriott while I'm here, not one of the Courtyard Marriott's but so far I have the impression that you get so much more at the lower level Marriotts tthan you do at a regular one.

For example..... at this particular Marriott, I don't get free internet (pah the gall!), no free breakfast (I have Diamond status at Hilton so I used to having that), and no free waters (boo!!). Also the towels feel like sand paper against my skin, bleh!!!! These reasons alone make me hate going to Marriott's. I have been assured that at my client site in Memphis, I'll at least get my free breakfast which is what I miss the most and that the property is brand new and the staff will take care of me because there are so many people from my company staying there. I may get Platinum status but thats little consolation considering Hilton's give me more perks (like double points,my waters, and free breakfast).

Oh well, I only have to suck it up for about six weeks unless I'm extended which may be likely,but who knows! Maybe I'll be lucky and they'll build a Hilton right next to the Marriott.
