Marriott really needs to take this issue up and get it fixed. [Emphasis added.]
This is an excellent way to put the burden where it should be -- on Marriott. Make the staff and management put the pressure on their Information Technology (IT) personnel, not the guests.

Plus, saying one's home telephone number out loud where it might be heard is not secure.
