Hey guys,
Any information or insight would be greatly appreciated. I have an upcoming long term stay at the Marriott Crystal City (Reagan) for 30+ nights. I currently have Silver, but I wanted to know if it was possible to get Gold status during this stay. I believe I will get the Gold status afterwards, but is there anyway I could get a Gold advance? 
I tried emailing, but the response I got back was that there are no current tastes/challenges at the moment. Should I try calling?
