Check-out Date: 11 March 2007
Marriott rate reserved: $339.00 (before 14% taxes & fees)
Currency: UNITED STATES DOLLAR (USD)
(2 rooms reserved)

COMPARISON RATE INFORMATION
Lower rate found or reserved: $206 (all-in)
Currency: UNITED STATES DOLLAR (USD)
Where did you find the lower rate: octopus.com

We have reviewed your claim and have made the following modification to your reservation:
Rate: $135.53 per night ($154.50 all-in)

*Note: I pointed-out that the octopus rate included all taxes & fees (~14%), so my rate was adjusted to include these taxes and fees for a bottom line that was 25% less than the all-inclusive octopus rate.

Total amount saved (2 rooms for 4 nights): $1864.48
Currency: UNITED STATES DOLLAR (USD)

I'd like to add that Marriott's best rate guarantee team was very helpful, very professional, and very prompt. ^
