"Qualcomm's Marriott code QUA is listed on AeroPenguin's Marriott code compilation. Qualcomm HQ in San Diego means properties there encounter genuine Qualcomm employees regularly. FlyerTalk's general Marriott tech-code enforcement: "Hotels within 5 miles of tech company HQ are significantly more likely to verify." Qualcomm has a smaller footprint than Intel or Cisco — less nationally recognized — so verification is primarily concentrated near San Diego. No specific QUA denial incident documented in public forums."

"I work for the front desk, at a Marriott, & have for the last 8 years .... So when it comes to room upgrades; it goes based on AVAILABILITY... sometimes no matter the tier, if we have it available - I will upgrade the guest. Now of course, higher tiered members get dibs on the upgrades first but after we go through the higher tiered members, Ambassador, Titanium, Platinum - then we go through the other ones. I cannot express this enough : BEING NICE & POLITE AT THE DESK GOES A LONG WA"

"I have a close friend who is a GM at a Marriott property in a fairly large US city (top 25 metro population). Their opinion is basically, "Hey, it's business. I'm not turning away a paying guest if they don't have the right ID." In this person's younger days as a front desk agent, they enjoyed catching people trying to use a corporate rate that the guest was not entitled to. As they became higher up and saw the books, occupancy rates, etc... Corp ID's became far less important than filling rooms."
