Does anyone remember if there is still a loophole in the room type guarantee that it only applies to the type as stated in the original reservation? I am sure that loophole used to exist.

Because I remember reading about this loophole, whenever this happens, I always cancel the reservation and call Marriott, rather than change it post facto as described below.

For some reason, you can add all the preferences you want at that point.
