Delta (and the Marriott merger) brought me to Starwood and now I am seriously so pissed at Starwood that Marriott may bring me back to United due to the fact United associates themselves with a better hotel chain (amd believe me I am no fan of United).

It is just incredible - 1000 plus nights at Marriott with a handful of issues; three stays at Sheraton in one week and they are all disasters.
