I stayed more nights than needed but it is the stays that count. So I am staying at a Marriott this weekend to keep Silver.
Next year will be a busy year and I will earn it easily. When I sent an email to Marriott Rewards they said there was nothing they could do for me. I didn't like the answer but will do another stay to keep my Silver.
No, it's nights. 10 for Silver, 50 for Gold, 75 for Platinum just as the OP stated.
The only thing with Marriott I've ever seen tied to stays is promotions, such as the double points when paying with Visa beginning on the 2nd stay...
