The last report on the exec lounge sticky is that a full breakfast is offered in the restaurant, so that might be worth giving up 750 points if you're a breakfast person.

If the hotel balks at the points, tell them to check this link:

It's shown right there that it's 750 points or breakfast.

Cheers.
So an update on the Wichita Marriott. After talking with the front desk manager she said she would need to investigate what I was saying because she had never heard of it. After 20+ hours of investigation (really just the next time I saw her), she said she saw what I was talking about but she would still need to check with the F&B manager to see how they handle it. I wasn't sure why that mattered but when I told her we were leaving for the airport right then she said she would just give me the points. I then let her know there were two others as well.

Of course, two days later when the points posted they weren't there. Other than that, the hotel was great. The whole lobby was remodeled and the lounge was key accessible over the weekend for drinks from the fridge.
