Update: after being ignored by the previous shift (see pic), new shift came on and WITHIN 5 MINUTES was able to get me a different room. Will be calling the general manager tomorrow to thank the helpful employee @MarriottBonvoy
Also PS to everyone who thinks I’m being overdramatic - the worker shrugged at me when I said I didn’t feel safe, which was very comforting let me tell you!!
Have you ever been a young female and put into a hotel room on the first floor (open access to anyone who walks in) where your room is right next to one of the unmanned entrances and also your window right where you sleep looks out into the parking lot
