10/10 Excellent
"The beds were excellent. That is why we love to stay at Marriott hotels. The hotel is in a great location. Our room was very quiet and clean. Our one complaint is that only one elevator was working. In a 10 story building, this is a BIG deal. We realize things happen but a gentleman that stays there often for work told us it has been down ALOT. We had to take the stairs and go out by the pool area because we couldn’t continue to wait for the elevator as we had a procedure scheduled at a nearby medical facility. We had already waited around 15 minutes before it opened on our floor and was already full of people. Would definitely stay again as long as the elevator is repaired."
