I currently have a reservation for the Courtyard Long Beach for tonight (8/31) for 1 night booked at a "Best Available Rate". When checking this morning, it looks like the "Best Available Rate" has now dropped by $20 on the Marriott website. If I call Marriott, will they honor the LNF rate and give me the extra discount or do I have to submit a form? The reason I ask is that I'm flying out this afternoon and need to have a reservation in place before I arrive.

Should I cancel the existing reservation and just book it at the new lower rate or should I try for the LNF guarantee? If I have to submit the request, will Marriott honor the LNF rate after the stay is completed if the request isn't processed today? Can I call Marriott to honor the LNF rate? This is the first time I've run into the rate actually dropping the day of my travel so any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks!
