Pros:

We were put in room 212. It was very clean, beds were extremely comfortable as were the pillows, perfect amount of coverings. Highest praise for comfort. I was told this was a trial room. 1. Shower doors did not stay closed. They both slid to open position. 2. There was no shelf for putting your own hair products on. 3. There was no shampoo, conditioner or soap containers or dispensers for the shower. Management was very kind and listened to above opportunities for improvement.

Pros:

I don't know if the hotel was having a bad weekend or if its always like this but our stay was disappointing. The hotel wifi wasnt working so I went down to ask about it, the hotel staff let me know the wifi was out for the building which is not the biggest deal. The women working the front desk gave me a paper with phone numbers to call to troubleshoot the wifi (why am i troubleshooting the hotels wifi? lol). The elevator needs repair asap. It is super slow and the door takes forever to close. Our room smelled like it wasnt cleaned thoroughly. The bathroom hadnt been swept correctly and towels didnt smell clean. We stayed 3 nights and they only came and cleaned the room once. I noticed half the 2nd floor rooms hadnt been cleaned either. I know things happen but the staff made zero attempts to notfiy people of what was going on. We used to pool area for a bit but the pool and sauna were dirty. We just ended up lounging in the sun. Overall im disappointed with how expensive our stay was vs what we actually experienced.

I have stayed at this establishment often and was pleased. This stay was a total let down and now, I will look for anoth
Pros:

The location is what attracts me to this place.

Cons:

The shower wasn’t draining properly. We ended up standing in water while showering. The shower head didn’t work properly. It seemed like the showerhead was clogged. While checking in,the attendant couldn’t find our reservation and after some time,she passed it on to another employee. They offered breakfast. Unfortunately the food that was supposed to to be hot were cold.

Pros:

Under construction, staff was so confused. Ask about late check out . Staff said no . I called Marriott and they told me because of my Marriott Silver status I could get late check out if available. Breakfast was a mess. Had to walk across parking lot then it was late then it was back at hotel then it was late .
