Not sure if we're staying there anymore, but marriott Islip
One of the things that I was extremely disappointed with in this contract was not guaranteeing getting points at every hotel we stay at.

Nobody but fractional operators seem to be able to get this benefit. Perhaps Hotel Connections/Travel Alliance is to blame?

I was fractional for 8 years, the last 12 i have been 121 (NK, but hey, still airline). Look at the T&C for any hotel/airline point program. They ALL specifically exclude airline crew rates from benefits. The room isn't booked for you, it is booked by the airline long time ahead, by the dozens, at a reduced rate. At the fractionals the room is booked day of, at the current rate, in my name, and with my CC. Would spend about $75K a year on my AMEX with 5% cash back on travel expenses, double dip on Hilton&Delta, always fly first class, take my family PS anywhere, and used my last free hotel stay 7 years after leaving CS. Awesome. Was it better than 121? Well, just look at how many leave 121 for 91k.... I did enjoy it though.
