Seems like your stay pattern fits HH pretty well. What are you looking for from a switch?
The only place I see Marriott with a clear advantage is greater total coverage with FS properties. I see a lot of cities with three or four large FS Marriott/Ren/JW type properties and only one or two Hiltons. That can be helpful if you need to stay in a certain budget range (greater chance that some Marriott will fit). But if 60% of your travels are out where it's just Hampton vs. Fairfield, I think you're better off in HHonors.
Marriott points worth far more than Hilton points.
