Anyone Getting Tired Of The Breakfast Burritos / Sandwiches Yet?
I stayed in Grand Junction, Glenwood Springs and Denver for a total of 1 week. Each and every morning was a breakfast burrito or a breakfast sandwich (95% Breakfast burrito). After a week straight of this, I was kind of glad when the Salt Lake City Sheraton didn't offer any breakfast other than 2 Starbucks vouchers.
Didn't think it was possible but I'm actually starting to miss the terrible eggs that used to be offered at Springhill, Fairfield, Holiday Inn Express etc.

“So I just got an update on this from my boss. I don't have all the info yet but it looks like Marriott will be requiring more normalized breakfast and dinner service in most hotels starting 7/1. Previously it depended on occupancy levels (over or under 50% occupancy for the month, as an example)“
This is what someone on Reddit said. Could be cap, idk. Seems kind of weird to me but I would be pleasantly surprised if it is the case.

Just because they have restaurant service doesn’t mean they will bring back elite breakfast so I’m not sure why the blog made that connection. To me it sounds like to food service has to come back… lots of examples of restaurants open and elite breakfast are still points.

Lol, you are lucky you got breakfast at GJ. I got a room that smelled like dog urine and front desk person with an attitude that told me that the hotel "was full" and that she couldn't change us from our room. We came back last week from a 10 day trip through 5 states. We stayed at 4 Marriots, 2 Hyatt and 1 Holiday Inn. So far the best breakfast was at the Spring hill suites by Yellowstone and the holiday Inn in Moab. Both had a full buffet. The two Courtyards didn't include it and it was they were the worst hotels in both service and quality. The Hyatts did provide the breakfast to go and they were ok(breakfast burrito or sandwich) but they provided the best service and the best hotel experience to the point that I am considering switching my loyalty to them.

Yes Grand Junction Courtyard was a bit of a poop show. The agent up front did not understand that as a Titanium with others in the room with me, that I'm entitled to TWO $10 dollar certs per day. I had to go up to my room find the terms and conditions and bring it back down at which point I was given the second cert.

Except for the burrito's everything else is the same ole stuff one would get in a grab and go bag. Also, not enough hot sauce packets to make the burrito taste better.

Got Noosa Blueberry at the Renaissance Boulder Flatiron. While still not healthy for ya, it tastes 1000% better than the usual yoplait or dannon's served.

Brand is based in Boulder, not likely to be found anywhere else as it probably costs $.10 more a cup wholesale
