I am currently staying at a SHS in NYC with the same sad state of affairs. They still have oatmeal and cold cereal. This is all part of the new breakfast rollout across FI, SHS, RI, & TPS brands which is projected to save operators %15 to %20 on breakfast costs IIRC. Of course, Marriott spun it as an enhanced breakfast based on customer feedback. In reality it is just another downgrade and reduction in service. YMMV...
