Bethesda, MD Marriott Suites
Gold - BF coupons (made clear it was for Continental) for TWO (not three) provided only after I asked- I say this because my reservation was for 1 adult 2 kids
actual - restaurant automatically upgraded kid b/f to full but kept mine at Continental
Could have taken 750 points in lieu of the BF coupons
four internet terminals in the lobby for anyone to use with printer access
FYI, parking is $15 even on the weekends

Staff great but issue at sports bar with speed of service (45+ min for food) but handled well by manager. Was embarrassed to say anything, but 3 tables that showed up well after us get food before us. Other hiccup on checking in for two connected rooms got two doubles instead of one king and one double.. . Place is packed with multiple weddings but still a great property and recommended.

Small update to the sydney marriott. On the sheet I was handed during check-in, they allow you to either do breakfast in the lounge (which is good) or the Icons Restaurant (which is outstanding). That breakfast is A$38/pp. They said you are allowed two guests, but were unclear if that included yourself. Anyway - I just had one guest anyway.
It's been a few years since I have been here - and it was not this way in the past. Also, they have completely renovated the rooms and lounge. Also got a upgrade to a spa suite for a 5 day award stay.

San Juan Marriott Lounge CLOSED PERMANENTLY!!!
Puerto Rico
San Juan / San Juan Marriott & Stellaris Casino Hotel and Resort / CLOSED PERMANENTLY at end of May 2014.
Was given coupons for "Breakfast Combo" at the coffee bar. Not sure if this is standard as a small screw-up with reservation failed to recognize my Platinum status even though they had my Rewards number. First time ever "enforcing" the Guaranteed Platinum Arrival Gift provision. Then upon learning the lounge had closed forever and complaining it was a reason I selected the property over another this trip, was presented with the coffee bar coupons. YMMV

I believe you need to remove the Marriott Horseshoe Bay Resort in Texas from this listing since it is no longer a Marriott.
