I think it was USA Today that ran a series on the "day in the life of a hotel housekeeper", and one of the comments was that they were usually very cautious on taking money left out unless it was clearly a tip, for fear of theft complaints.

[I'd suggest moving this to TravelBuzz, as it's not at all Marriott specific]
