This is not a strike against every property that has a connection with Marriott. It only is for certain contracts with certain operators. As of now, its San Diego, Boston, San Francisco, and Hawaii so nothing in Baltimore that I've heard of.

And not even everything in Boston. The Waterfront Renaissance is on the safe list. They are not actively striking the Copley Marriott AFAICT. The Sheraton Commander is on the safe list but that is probably an old franchise with a separate contract.
