BTW - here are pics of the AMS Marriott for anyone interested.

Also, a thought just occurred to me. I remember reading either HKG or one of the China Marriotts people thought they were getting charged a fee, but it was some internal accounting thing & the way Marriott/hotel get compensated. There is no fee to the person redeeming awards & normally you never even see the internal stuff. My guess is that how the 'rumor' started w/ AMS Marriott.
Cheers.
