You won't see this from reading the list of Gold vs Plat.
Having a several thousand miles or more will help in addition for room consideration.

The Front Desk Check in and other staff are much more attentive to Plats. Playing Marriott's Elite game is rewarding enough to remain loyal. Location of their properties are best for me compared to the other chains.

I just wish most hotels had not lost their ability to make a good military or hospital bed, where the bottom sheet stays in place and does not become loose even before you get into bed. Pulling out the tucked in top sheet only adds to the mess. By morning you might wake up wrapped up like a mummy. This is a pet peeve of mine, and I have to teach the maids how to make the best bed considering that the mattresses are now too thick for the size of the sheets. Marriott is not the only hotel chain, that has this problem. And they have no idea how to correct it from NY Marquis to Rio to the West Coast of the U.S.
