If you want a Marriott, your best choice is either the Renaissance Stanford Court (I think it's still in the chain) or the JW Marriott ? on 4th Street. The former is a nicer property but the latter may be slightly more convenient for tourism and is walking distance from a number of attractions.
Personally I would go on priceline to see if you can score a room at the Grand Hyatt, but that will take cash, not points.
