Even at their top JW properties, their rooms are away worse than *wood hotels, hyatt, few Top Hiltons and Intercontinental.

I have checked the room picture taken by some tourists at Aruba, which I guess it is one of the best marriott hotels, but compare to room at Hilton Maldive, Seychelles. Intercontinental Bora Bora and lots of Luxury Collection and st regis hotels, Marriott's rooms are very very "cheap"
2 Points/Questions:

Why would you not stay at a hotel for 7 nights (besides, you are not forced to stay 7 nights).

You realize you can redeem points for Ritz Carlton stays, right?
