This feels like playing a game Pacman where you go about collecting the energizer points .
Find a city/town with two different Marriott brands, not too far apart, and alternate betweens them , yourself.

Well, if if the couple of properties are ...in another country/city far enough away that you must fly or otherwise the transport cost to get to the couple of properties is relatively "large", factor that and your time into the cost of those couple of properties , and is it worth the price including transport to/from the properties.

Stay at one Tribute brand , that completes the category
