What's the discount code to get the MVCI discount when booking a regular Marriott hotel online?

TIA for any answers!

Though MOD really only applies to MVCI properties (a few exceptions). There are no owner discounts at regular hotels.

It would be good to have some idea of which hotels the MOD discount might work for and when - it does seem to be rather random.
Out of interest, I just checked using MOD for the UK for a month out and found just this one hotel.

I can't answer that one, but if this is an anomaly there are other anomalies around so for example with another fairly random search I found

I wonder if the exceptions are only outside the USA. I haven't found any hotels in the US where the MOD rate applies.

I further wonder if the MOD rate exceptions are based on MVCI's contracts for explorer type trips and then they just allow the MOD discounts since they have the ability to book. Anything MOD is booked and controlled by MVCI so this would make sense.

That could well be, I have not found any in the US although I can get a little closer!

Perhaps these oddities are where someone at Marriott just mis-typed a code when entering them in to the system?

I seem to remember that MOD-code rates are generally available at all of the timeshare resorts and at non-US hotels, but almost never at US hotels. Also, they're capacity-controlled so demand will drive availability.
