OK, I just recently got a Marriott Rewards Card, and now I will be traveling frequently for business. When I was browsing for hotels for upcoming stays in April and May, I was having a lot of trouble locating Courtyards and such at a government rate. However, what pops up on the Marriott site , but a government rate for Ritz Carlton in my preferred location. Now I made the reservation but I was wondering do I get Marriott Points for this since it was on the Marriott site because I want to have enough nights to get gold/platinum status?

Also, when I went back to book additional dates, this particular Ritz disappeared from the directory.
