Large experience
Pros:

I wanted to share the experience I faced at Marriott Del Mar.

Firstly I ordered the Vegetarian pizza and they added Pepperoni in the pizza. On raising they mentioned it’s a mistake but I feel it’s a blunder to add non veg in vegetarian dish

Secondly I was given a room near electrical panel. Even on raising they said they don’t have option as hotel is full and they would change next day.

Thirdly they security lapse. One of your guest was taking the pet unleashed in the lift and corridor and even after mentioning he didn’t care and on raising it with your front desk and security no action nothing happened.

I mean this is not a one star hotel. We come to Marriott for a brand and this is not we expect

Poor Guest Service
Pros:

Great clean hotel. Customer service subpar at best at the time of stay nothing wrong just slow with requests or just forgot but generally nice. It was post stay that was bad. I left an expensive headset behind and no one cares. The only who was helpful was the security director. Everyone at the front desk to guest services were far from helpful. I had to call numerous times just for nothing to help me. All I want is a form for insurance purposes and can’t even get that. We enjoyed the stay but to be treated like this post stay definitely won’t come back and will find a new place in San Diego to stay in the future.

Great experience at the Marriott Del Mar!
Pros:

Lukas Farinacci is a valet superstar at the Marriott Del Mar. Super professional, fast service, and genuinely helpful—he assisted with our car seats for the kids and gave great tips on nearby attractions. Made check-in and check-out a breeze. This level of personal service is what sets the Marriott Del Mar apart!

I won't return
Cons:

I had three small children with me and was given a room with one bed and shower. Though the pictures show baths in the room. I was told all rooms had showers (im not sure if this was true). I had a terrible night sleep bc there was simply no room for us, there was no pull out sofa as described. The guest service brought an extra blanket and pillow for the chaise seating. I wish I would have stayed somewhere else for the money. $400 wasted. Staff was not helpful at all

Won’t stay there again
Pros:

Good location for our purpose

Cons:

Makeup cloth was filthy. Dirtiest windows I had ever seen. Very large stain/mark on sofa. If you weren’t careful, faucet would continue to drip with all of the water landing on the counter and flooding it. Room was not cleaned the first day even though we were gone all day. Toilet roll holder was broken. Water was too expensive.
