Thanks for the update! One question, when the exec lounge was closed, did you get a breakfast credit at the restaurant? That is supposed to be one of the Gold/Plat perks but sometimes I get a look like I have 3 heads when I ask:

Guaranteed Lounge Access/Free Continental Breakfast
Help yourself to light snacks, beverages and complimentary continental breakfast in our Concierge/Executive Club Lounge at participating Marriott Hotels, JW Marriott Hotels or Renaissance Hotels. For Marriott Hotels, JW Marriott Hotels or Renaissance Hotels without a Concierge/Executive Club Lounge, we invite you to enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast on your weekday stays, Monday-Friday. Just show your membership card and room key in the hotel restaurant. We guarantee you will always receive access to either the lounge during normal hours of operation or complimentary breakfast, or we will reimburse you $100 USD at full-service hotels. (Not available at resort locations)
