Not sure if OP is a Marriott employee or the family member of one. Either way, I suspect his/her behavior is jeopardizing the job of whoever is entitled to the MMP rate. Tread carefully..:

Tread carefully as your family or friend will likely have issues​​
Now that we have (finally) learned what an MMP rate is, what is MMF?
