Hotel Key Cards

IMPORTANT! To avoid deactivating your hotel key cards, we suggest keeping them away from cell phones, other electronic devices, and anything magnetic.

Hotel Safety

• Verify all unexpected deliveries or hotel staff room entry requests with the front desk and always look through the peephole to see who is at the door.
• Be observant. Don’t venture into isolated or darkened areas. If needed, the hotel should be able to provide a security escort, so don’t be afraid to ask for one. It is not an uncommon request.
• Use the deadbolts or auxiliary locks provided on the door.
• Never sit in a room with the door left open, and don’t leave the door open for an extended period, even to get ice.
• Use the in-room safe (hotel vault or safe deposit box) for your valuables.
• Don’t reveal room numbers within earshot of unfamiliar people. If a front desk clerk mentions your room number aloud in front of suspicious strangers, you can request another room.
• Don’t enter your hotel room if the door is ajar.
• REMEMBER - DON’T TAKE CHANCES. WHENEVER IN DOUBT, CALL FOR HELP.

Smoking Policy

The Anaheim Marriott is a non-smoking hotel. Smoking is not permitted in any area of the hotel, including guest rooms, suites, public areas, restaurants, and meeting/banquet rooms.

Pet Policy

No pets are allowed except for service animals for people with disabilities. While there is no dedicated pet relief area, there are plenty of grassy areas around the perimeter of the property.

Elevator System

The Anaheim Marriott uses a smart elevator system. Simply push the appropriate button to set your destination; you will be directed to the elevator that will take you to your desired floor in the shortest amount of time.

Steps to Follow When Using the Elevators

1. On the keypad, enter the floor you want to reach.
2. Wait for the system to assign you an elevator bank, which will be displayed on the keypad.
3. Once in the elevator, floors will be listed on the screen located on the elevator door.

Accessible Service: An accessible button is marked in Braille at the bottom of the number pad. The system will use voice prompts when the accessible button is pressed. You will be prompted to enter the number on the keypad; numbers are also in Braille. Once a floor is selected, you will be directed to your assigned elevator. For example: If the fifth floor is selected, the prompt will say, “Fifth floor Elevator F.” It will then provide directions to Elevator F.

After you check into your guest room, please return to the hotel lobby and follow the signs to Xforce Registration. There you can check in, print your name badge, and receive Xforce materials. You must wear your badge at all times to access Xforce sessions and events.

At the Xforce Registration Desk, you will be asked if you are attending certain events and if you are bringing guests, e.g., for the Awards Banquet. The information is important to have an accurate count for meals.

Registration dates and times:

• Sunday, May 21 - 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• Monday, May 22 - 7:45 a.m. to 2:15 p.m.

PRE-REGISTERED ATTENDEE CHECK-IN
All pre-registered Xforce attendees can check in and print their own name badges at self-service kiosks located in the Xforce Registration area.

You should have received a QR code in your confirmation email when you registered online. To receive your name badge, you will need to either scan the QR code or input your first and last name.

For touchless check-in, you can log into your Cvent Xforce registration in advance of the event, either to print or take a screenshot of your QR code - you will need to scan the QR code at the kiosk. The system will ask you to verify the spelling of your name, update any errors, and print out your name badge.

ON-SITE REGISTRATION
If you or your guests have not yet registered for the Welcome Reception or the Awards Banquet, you can purchase these tickets onsite.
