I have noticed that Marriott has stoped talking about their "luxourius bedding". Are they already in need of updating their beds?
You must be pretty unlucky with your choices... the majority of Marriott's have up to date bedding.
You should be sleeping on the new Jamison beds "Supreme Plus" with the feather bed comforters. Obviously everyone has their own preference when it comes to bed styles but the Supreme Plus and feather bed comforter combo is a touch a heaven, I usually sleep like baby.
Older Marriott's will go with their usual traditional box spring mattress, same go's for most Fairfield Inn's as well. However, all Marriott's will have to comply with the new set up listed above by mid 2009, so look out for those properties who let you down to offer you some sleeping bliss.
Also, keep in mind that the Renaissance and SpringHill brands always have the most up to date amentities.... might want to go with one or the other next time you book with Marriott.
