I've never experienced these difficulties. During Ramadan last year I stayed at the Marriot with 3 friends, one male and two female. We got a double room and requested at the desk for four slippers and four robes. After that we drank the contents of our mini bar 5 times. They had to keep coming up to restock it. Not once did anyone give us a hard time. On Christmas we went back and brought through the scanner in a bag, a case of beer and a bottle of Whiskey. "Pary on Wayne." "Party on Garth."
