Overall, very disappointing. When we first arrived, there were no washcloths or hand towels in the room. The following d
Pros:

The location met our needs

Cons:

1) Parking fee of $14.95 per night.
2)Overcooked breakfast sandwich (only 1 choice) Too hard to eat or cut thru
3) Fluctuation in shower temperature- hot/cold water. (Stuck on too hot or too cold) Had to call the maintenance man
4) First night no hand towels or
wash clothes
5) No maid service except every 4th night. Daily “freshen up” was not completed. We were there for 4 nights and only had maid service once. Trash not emptied except once.
6) The sign said Starbucks, but no decaf available
7) No complementary drinking water

We enjoyed a comfortable room with views of the mountains in a great location.
Pros:

The person that checked us in was really fabulous. She made us welcomed and very comfortable. Also, we loved how quiet our room was in general.

Cons:

We could hear dogs barking in the room next to us. Thank goodness this only happened once. We realized that Courtyard Marriott allows dogs at certain locations.

Cons:

I booked a suite through booking.com when I got to the hotel to check in they gave me a different room and gave my suite away. I paid for a suite and they gave me one room and expected all of us to fit in one room.

Pros:

Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Location to where I needed to be. Room was nice and comfortable. Needed a different chair as the one in the room was damaged and got a better one quickly. Over all very nice.

Cons:

Paying for parking in a non secure area. Restaurant could be upgraded to a nicer eating facility.
