Double-Billed and Over-paying
Pros:

Hotel is extremely well-located right at the harbor. Has all the amenities necessary.

Cons:

Way overpriced for what you get. Very generic, corporate hotel. Got double billed for self-parking--which is ridiculous. So many conventioneers there. Pool is very crowded. Restaurants/bars are underwhelming. Gate to re-enter wasn't working and had to walk all the way around

I would definitely stay here again!
Pros:

Everything!! We loved our room, we loved the Marina Kitchen staff, the bell hops, the front desk, the pool staff, the valet staff.l, the pantry staff.

Cons:

I did not like that we requested extra items (blankets, towels and pillows) on both nights and they never came either night.

Valet of the Year
Pros:

Val at the Valet was amazing! So professional and went above and beyond the call of duty for me in my time of need. I was performing violin for Mother’s Day Brunch at the Marina Kitchen but had so much to load in with sound equipment. Val not only greeted me warmly but made sure I was taken care from load in to load out. He elevated my experience and my entire day at the Marriott so it started out great. I wish he was at every Valet stand I went to! Give this man a raise!!!
