We chose this property for the amenities. The pool and hot tub were not able to be used. Big bummer for our weekend getaway. Also lots of kids running around the hallways and outside unsupervised and loud!

I would like to start by saying that this property was less than I expect from a Marriott. My son and I stayed for 4 nights due to a summer camp he was attending. The air conditioning was not working/turned on in the halls on the floors or in the elevator, it was stifling hot. I told the front desk and the staff member said they were aware. He also said “ is the AC working in your room? That’s what you are paying for” I thought this was ridiculous to say. Next, the pool is not adequately maintained. No chemicals could be detected by smell and the water was yellow. I asked the front desk about this and I was told the pool chemicals were checked once a week. I am sure this doesn’t meet standards. The gym needs a mat to do floor work/sit ups. Both myself and another woman were not happy…it costs a minimum amount to provide this. There is a Starbucks in the lobby (awesome!) but which is open for maybe 3-4 hours in the mornings. The rooms were clean, the location was excellent for us. The beds were comfortable.

Very clean and quiet. My son enjoyed the pool. Hot tub was nice as well. It was a quick trip . Easy in and out . Only minor issue was you had to pay for parking by scanning a QR code and paying seperate. It could not just be included in the bill. Seems like a hassle for no reason. parking was plentiful

The lobby puts on a big show, but the rooms were pretty underwhelming. I also booked this hotel 4 months in advance and specifically booked this one because it was one of the few in the area with an indoor hot tub and pool. When we got there, it was closed. When we asked the front desk they said that it was, “Just the time of year for the pool to be transitioned outside.” I can certainly understand that there are times pools will be closed for scheduled maintenance or even surprise unscheduled maintenance. But if it is going to be scheduled maintenance, I feel like they should have to put a note up in advance on the website. Feels misleading otherwise. The staff were so incredibly helpful. The service was great. They made it right and were very kind with what was honestly somewhat of a silly complaint. Grateful for the staff but was overall unimpressed with the hotel itself.

The rooms were average Marriott rooms. What is actually included in the price of the room is minimal. There was no complimentary coffee, so I bought 2 cups for about a total of $13 from Starbucks in the lobby. Parking is not included, even though it is not located in a city setting, just a regular parking lot. Only an indoor pool, that looked less than desirable. Fan in the bathroom didn’t work and this might be the smallest bathroom I’ve ever seen in a Marriott. A small area is provided outside to hang out with a fire pit and a few chairs. Beds were fine but disappointed with parking and no complimentary coffee - also no microwave. Fell short of what I expect from Marriott, I will say check in was pretty fast and the front desk staff was friendly.

I don’t like the fact that they charge you to park at the hotel now. Makes no sense whatsoever. You pay to stay period.

Hotel was very nice. Beautiful lobby and bar area. Room was clean with comfortable beds and bedding. Nice bathroom. The only downsides were that they charge for parking even though it is a pretty remote area & also not sure if it’s the usual but the pool closed at 6:30pm, which was a bummer.

My family and I were thrilled with the hotel. Room was clean and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. When we got off the elevator we saw our room was the first door, and maybe we got lucky with considerate guests, but it was still a quiet night's sleep. We appreciated the front desk giving us all the bottled water we needed or wanted--seems like many places would charge you for that. Finally, the hotel is literally across the street from the Friday Center which was convenient for picking up a bus to take us to the Smith Center. Will return again.

The hotel staff were very friendly. The hotel is located within walking distance of a game day shuttle. The room was clean with comfortable beds. Our only complaint was the walls are very thin. We were in an adjoining room, and our neighbor’s cough kept waking us up throughout the night. Nonetheless, we will definitely stay here again.

I used to stay here when the rooms were less expensive. Ok, I understand. It's an ok place to stay if overpriced and you have no other choices. The breakfast isn't as good as it used to be. But the parking lot charging an extra fee to park when the hotel is not in an urban area or where parking scarce is just annoying and petty. QR codes posted everywhere make sure you don't forget to pay the additional fee. Don't forget! Get that code!

One overnight stay, Sat 5pm- Sun 11am next morning. The hotel was clean and welcoming. However, I did have trash in the bathroom trashcan in my room. At check in I was informed of the free breakfast and given the Bistro card showing "Redeemable for One Breakfast Entree & One Grande Coffee of the Day" times it was available, Mon-Fri: 6am-10am Sat & Sun: 6:30am-11am. I went to the Bistro at 10:42am prior to checking out and I was informed that they closed at 10:30. I inquired to the young lady at the bar was this a one time occurrence, she responded, No and proceeded to do what she was doing. I went over to the front desk to check out and brought it to the attention of the front desk personnel that the Bistro card shows breakfast ends at 11am on Sunday. She informed me that, no it\'s 10:30am. I would like the manager or corporate to be aware to follow through on the services you advertise. Often selecting a hotel is based on the additional amenities offered. Please consider reprinting your Bistro cards or display signage with the correct times of operation. I would stay at this Marriott location again.
