Q : Does a 1-night stay count as the first stay ?
A : Yes, this would count as the first stay as long as the one night falls within the promotion period.
Q : Does a stay that straddles the start / end date of the promotion period count ?
A : If you check in before March 19 but check out after, that stay will count as a Double Take stay. Likewise, if you check in before June 4 that stay will count as a Double Take stay, even if you check out after.
Thank you for these answers. I don't really have many complaints with Marriott, Bonvoy, Points.. etc.. But the Manager responsible for information that gets disseminated with promotions is really lacking in brain power. A link to FAQs or just a few more details in the terms would prevent hundreds(thousands?) of calls, misinformation, lost time, more money in Marriott's pocket. I just can't understand, when relatively simple fixes could be put in place, the same questions happen over and over again. Why is this information NOT included with the promotion/terms????
