Pros:

The facility and staff met the standard that we have enjoyed at other Courtyard by Marriott locations.

Cons:

Unfortunately, when we booked the hotel, we didn't know how close our room would be to the freeway and airport. The freeway hums constantly, and you can hear airplanes coming in for landing. That is on me. I should have paid more attention to the location or asked for a room on the other side of the building.

A disappointing stay, made worse by repeated issues and a lack of follow-through despite multiple promises from staff to
Pros:

Good location with a great view of the airport. The communal areas were also clean and well maintained.

Cons:

Unfortunately, there were several issues during our stay, including a bathroom ceiling leak which meant changing rooms, a faulty iron that was never replaced, and an ongoing issue with my Marriott Bonvoy account and points. Most frustratingly, multiple members of staff repeatedly promised that these issues would be passed to management and resolved, but nothing was actioned. We were even promised a follow-up call after checkout, which never happened, and the Bonvoy issue still remains unresolved.

The stay was pleasant but would like the amenities should be somewhere else.
Pros:

It was really close to everything, was near Seaworld, the zoo, the beach and lots of dinning experiences.

Cons:

I didn’t like that the coffee maker and microwave was in the closet.
