Cheers.
I stayed at two Marriott properties (Cosmopolitan Vegas and a Courtyard) this past weekend using associate rate, I did receive elite benefits and no night credits like I normally have in the past that is just like normal but I have been unable to find availability at any SPG property using associate rate even the option that shows availability on month calendar is grayed out while it works for Marriott property, I have tried going through StarHot link as well.
Would anyone like to give more info on property/ procedure on how they were able to search associate rate availability at SPG property using marriott.com
