The check in person and the casino host had the same answer, so......
Basically we are checked in as a "Casino guest" so, we aren't a guest at the hotel, we are just occupying the room
No benefits - I was also told that benefits are the result of a paid stay (either $$ or points) but between being comped the room and being a guest of the Casino, that they don't provide any normal Marriott Autograph benefits
One thing that irked me is they put a $450 hold on my CC (I don't care about the hold per se, but $450, I think that is a bit steep but oh well)

I am oddly fine with this - other than the fact the prices are literally stupid for stuff - but you do get 2 free bottle of water daily - that saves you like $7 a day LOL
Wifi is surprisingly fast
Thats all I got - enjoy your stay
