Were you at least offered a respectable hotel for your stay? I mean, if you flew out there for an MVCI presentation, did they at least put you in a mainline Marriott/Renaissance?

Come to think of it, I think the frequent HGVC and MVCI direct mailings I get for Kauai and the Big Island only promise rooms in the hotels, not apartments or villas in the timeshares, during my preview stay. So we're talking Marriott Kauai and HWV. I guess I can understand that. But if one of the chains teased me in with a low rate and then put me up in a roadside motel, I'd be pretty disappointed and probably not in a mood to do further business with them.
