My Reservation Preference profile also has "King/queen." The Marriott.com reservation system tries to book a king room (or, I assume, a queen room at properties where a large bed is a queen), rather than a room with 2 beds (2 queens or 2 doubles, depending on the property).

What really matters is the kind a guaranteed reservation. The system always tries to guarantee a king for me.

I guess I don't consider it a problem to have "King/queen" in my profile. The three choices for Bed Type in Marriott.com are:

• King/queen
• 2 Double beds
• No preference
