Hmm. Perhaps non-compliant Marriott properties are really a money-making opportunity!

What's the source for identifying property operators? I'd sure like to add the Huntsville, AL Westin to the wiki for their nonsense.

Did you report them or is this one of the exempt properties?

Most of the time you can find it through Google, as the large third-party management companies all have websites with their portfolio listed. I don't think knowing the management company is necessary for listing a property here.

Unfortunately can't even really list Atlantis here (and the Cosmo too) given they are exempt from even a crappy coffee and crappy muffin

I think Baltimore, however, was a new-build Delta.

Delta's Detroit airport property has a lounge. I think it was called the "concierge lounge." The soon-to-open Muskegon property will also have a lounge, which strikes me as unusual given that Muskegon isn't exactly a business destination. I think most or all of the legacy Delta properties in Canada have a lounge branded as a "Signature" lounge.

There seems to be no consistency whatsoever, which is very frustrating. Anyways.
MSP was a nearly gut renovation of a Wyndham or Ramada, IIR. It was very nice but surrounding area very MEH. But I was chasing brands for points on that stay.

I'm not sure I understand the point of this thread. I understand naming and shaming properties that offer terrible breakfasts, but including properties like Beaver Creek, where it appears they aren't even offering enough for a continental breakfast... why not just claim your $100 compensation?

because they are refusing and insisting the 10 is sufficient. With the exception of the Renaissance above, they all say they are compliant so they wont provide the $100.

I think it's worth trying to identify the operator. For example, I didn't realize Kessler ... which operates nice properties... is a consistent violator.

Are you there on a paid stay - either with cash or points? OR casino Guest

Casino Guest get nothing - even the deal with Caesars for free nights

If you are paid with cast or points, go back to the desk you checked in at and they have silver flyers and there are a few check boxes with your choices, you check the one you want, fill in your name and stuff and that is your choice.

The program is very clear that you have to pay for your stay in order to receive benefits - I wasn't expecting anything as I was a casino guest, but I did inquire as there is a biggesh thread on it in the Caesars section of the FT, but i did inquire to see the changes post Aug 18 (Basically - None)

Where is this Delta hotel at MSP? I don't think I've ever noticed it.

Can you imagine the surprise of some guests? "Look hunny, Delta has hotels too. I didn't know that."

In Detroit, it seems Delta crew mostly stay at the Delta hotel. Southwest and American seem to use the Marriott. United the Sheraton.

As far as Beaver Creek is concerned, I'd recommend elevating. They offer enough for Coffee and a pastry, but even a light continental would at the very least include fruit or something else in addition to that.
