Shambles of a hotel
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No parking unless you paid for valet for 70 dollars which turned into 75 over night
They had printed that they stopped serving food at 10 but refused to serve us at 9.43 forcing us to leave the dining area outside after a long travel day
The room was listed at 185 a night with parking 215 wit taxes the next day I paid what I believe was that only for 250 out of my account.
So what I believed was 215 dollar room became a 325 room with out explanation a rip off

Good location but beware of hidden fees
Pros:

The location is good and you can easily walk to the City Hall and close to restaurants and shops. The rooms are tidy and clean.

Cons:

There are different hidden fees, there is a market fee of $5 which has never been explained. On top of the valet parking fee of $70, there is a "Convenience fee" of $4.50 which has not be disclosed or explained until when you have to pick up your car. The rooms are very dark and no hot water or kettle can be provided. Only one small bottle water is provided for each room.

Horrible staff and not worth the price
Pros:

Despite contacting the hotel roughly ten times across multiple staff members and departments, we received nothing but redirections and a complete refusal to take ownership of our lost item. When we visited in person at considerable inconvenience, we were passed from one person to the next, each claiming it was not their job. To make matters worse, the lost item website the Marriott call center directed us to did not even work for this hotel.

Beyond this ordeal, the breakfast staff were notably rude, and the rooms were poorly lit to the point of being uncomfortable. A deeply disappointing stay on every front.
