Room was filthy, crumbs and hair on the floor, black dirt on all the doors, cabinets falling apart, dishwasher wouldn't close, refrigerator was dirty, empty soap and shampoo in the shower, dirty shower, no coffee maker in the room (front desk got us one promptly). Even the hallways needed vacuuming. One plus was clean and comfortable bedding and towels. Also, we liked the layout of the room. Would NOT stay there again. Very disappointing for a Marriott property.

I loved being able to book a 2 bedroom suite. The room seemed freshly remodeled. The overall look of the lobby, hallways and suite was impressive. Unfortunately, there was definitely a lack of attention to some details. In the freshly tiled bathroom, there was leftover grout all over the tiles. There were no hooks or a towel bar in the bathroom or sink area. The bed was very comfortable but the sheets were scratchy. The breakfast was decent. The front desk staff was amazing! For what we paid, I would recommend this hotel, even knowing that some things still need improving.

Our check-in was quick and easy. I think the hotel is undergoing renovations. The beds were comfortable, but the bathroom needs some attention. The carpet was ripped up and I stepped on the carpet staple. The bathtub had a large rust spot. Overall the hotel is fine, just dated.
