I loved absolutely everything about my stay at this property. They made me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived! The food was delicious, the staff was warm and friendly starting with Christian at the front desk. My room was amazing, The bedding, those pillows and that shower has always been a staple to the Marriott Hotels. The pool was amazing, sitting at the bar sharing with others was so much fun after a day full of fun out on the town. The location was exactly where I needed to be. Great choice, great time, fabulous place!
Overall, the hotel was nice. There was a lot of construction in the parking deck, very poor lighting, there was a homeless person sleeping on one of the levels, it did not feel safe. This forced me to use valet parking, which was nice but an unexpected expense. The room was fine, the bed was very comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was excellent. There were some areas in the bathroom, however that need some maintenance, drywall and baseboard repair. The doors in the suite were also squeaky. Last thing, there was an additional charge for Wi-Fi, at the rates we were charged. I don’t think it unreasonable for this to be included. It was fine for a two nights stay, don’t think I would book here for longer trips.
Great customer service the in house restaurant has great food

Great property, have staid there several times. Nice staff , good rooms , shower is great. Quiet neighborhood and an amazing restaurant right across the street
The hotels in a fantastic location for walking to restaurants and for Soda City. Breakfast was not good at all and very slow. There are other much better options in the area. Very nice bar in the lobby. Hotel is old and could use some love
