Can I use a debit card to check-in Marriott?

Marriott: At check-in, you have the option of using a debit card instead of a credit card. No matter which type of plastic you use, your card-issuing bank will place a hold for room and tax charges, any applicable resort fees, plus an amount for incidentals per day for the entire stay (amount varies by location).
