We had an okay stay at this location but would not return
Pros:

Breakfast was great, beds were comfy, room was mostly clean. Restaurant food was good

Cons:

Very outdated building, elevators would open up in between floors which was very concerning, buttons in them were upside down and falling off. Pool room seemed very outdated and didn't appear clean. Side doors were able to open without hotel keys... concerning for safety reasons. We always prefer Marriott hotels but this location did not meet expectations

Cons:

Place was a mess. Under construction unannounced to us before making reservations. Wreaked of every kind of gas. Wouldn't dare eat or drink here. One positive, staff were very kind.

So disappointing to see the deterioration of this once nice hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast ok. Pleasant, efficient waitress.

Cons:

I have been staying at this hotel for 20+ years. Ownership no longer Marriott. Facility very dirty (carpets, furniture, pool looked as if not cleaned in ages). Very surly staff at reception. I have booked at another location for future travel.
