Stay twice at Marriott and earn 1 free night at a category 1-5 (so this will not include the high end expensive Marriott).

Register by July 31st click here

Make two paid stays between May 15 and Sept 2 and get one certificate

Free night Certificates are good for 1 year after you receive them

A stay is different than 1 night – the best way to get the bonus is to stay for one night at two different times. A stay is a check in and check out and you can't check back in on the same day.

If you are staying in hotels for work and you have some flexibility, you can switch hotels every night to collect more rewards. It can be a pain in the neck but sometimes its worth it.
