This is why I never stay at the Marquis. I go to NY every week. I dont like to be in a crowded hotel. and they never upgrade me to a large room. I just got back from NY on Friday and stayed at the new RI on 6th AVE. that is my new favorite Marriott hotel in NY. I love the free full breakfast and the evening recption. They treat their plat's with alot of courtsy and reward them with good upgrades.
