"HP (alt 2) Marriott code 5444 is a second secondary HP/HPE code. HP has three documented Marriott codes (HPQ, 5105, 5444) reflecting HP's complex corporate structure post-split into HP Inc. and HPE. FlyerTalk notes that "HP's deep discounts — cheapest in China" make it a high-value code worth monitoring. The same enforcement pattern as HPQ applies: Bay Area/Houston properties are most scrutinized, international properties more enforcement-active."

"I mean, it depends on the size of the hotel. Having one person on night shift for a Fairfield isn’t uncommon. The better hotels have more people working at front desk even at night simply due to the size and brand. I’d however say though, if the property has been notified of the guest’s check in time in advance, and part of deal of getting into night shift is to check people in at unusual hours like that, then it certainly does not sound right to me that the front desk agent cannot have the meal earlier or later out of that many hours of the shift."

"My employer does not have a corporate rate but when I'm consulting for a company that does, I use theirs. I've only been challenged for identification once. In that one situation I explained the consulting arrangement, and the desk clerk accepted it without a badge or business card (neither of which I had anyway)."
