"Also depends how the management company or if it’s a corporate company actually trains the front desk associate. For example, some agents are required to ask for your government ID to get the perdiem government rate which is usually heavily discounted if offered at the hotel. I’ve worked at various hotels each with varying policies. One hotel might have a front desk team that’s more trained to ask for ID’s or proof in order for you to get that rate. Deloitte, Accenture, Kaiser etc all have corporate negotiated rates that come with steep discounts and perks. For example Kaiser usually had a lower rate, discounted parking, lounge access etc. It’s not hard to obtain these corporate negotiated codes so that’s why some agents will ask you for proof that you work for said company. It’s not personal they are just doing what they are supposed to do."

"I wouldn’t mind that at all. Credit Card companies have super weak security and it’s very easy to defraud them - they just pay our money back, and counts that as losses so we’ll sure up about it and keep using the cards What I mind is that the mobile check-in is basically a lie. Marriott is deceiving me. Random hypothetical people that might or might not stole my credit card are not. Hilton works just fine btw"

"I always see people saying that they aren’t able to do mobile check in. I’ve only stayed at two Marriott hotels where I tried to do mobile check in ( both of them never been to before) and they both let me without having to go to the front desk which I was really happy about because I had lost my ID and didn’t know how I was going to check in. Also I think I only had about 20 nights at the time, I usually stay with my boyfriend because he’s titanium."
