Weird
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Simple slippers being reserved for only “complimentary guests”. Receptionists wasting your time or seemingly annoyed by the questions you ask (except for Anastasia, only reason this review isn’t totally catastrophic).
Plugs not working despite calling multiple times.
Ironing board leaking.
Chair in the room destroyed.
Just bare minimum all over and an overall feeling that if you’re not a vip you don’t deserve basic professional treatment.
Had to ask multiple times for my points to be added into my mariott account only to find out days later that it was not possible in the end because booking was made on booking and not on Mariott. But was told the exact opposite when checking in on the first day.
Breakfast bare minimum, no flexibility whatsoever on putting it.
The only nice thing I have to emphasise is the receptionist Anastasia who tried her best to accommodate.
Will not set foot there again and probably not in another mariott hotel ever again. Not for the facilities but for how I was made to feel.

Clean and comfortable
Pros:

Lovely air-conditioning in rooms, very welcome in the heat. Clean and comfortable.

Cons:

Caters a lot for coach parties, there were two when we visited. Be prepared for a wait both in reception and restaurant and bar if you are independent travellers.

Disappointing service
Pros:

Modern good-looking hotel, conveniently located. Good buffet breakfast and adequate lounge bar food. Nice room, modern shower. A/c worked fine. Unfortunately we had a frustrating issue with our room TV for our 3 night stay. This is not so much about the issue itself but the way it was handled by the hotel staff. With world cup soccer and Wimbledon on, our room tv kept turning itself off every few seconds and was unwatchable. Reported it straightaway on the first evening and were promised someone would work on it the following morning. The problem was exactly the same on the second evening with no communication from the hotel. The lady answering the phone at reception claimed to be too busy to even try to find out an update for us. The man at reception was more helpful and did at least track down a TV remote so that we could change the channel in the bar area to watch Wimbledon. He eventually established that they had tried to fix the tv but couldn't, had no replacement and no policy to supply one, and no alternative room we could move to. He promised to investigate whether we could move to an alternative room for the last night of our 3 night stay, but again we heard nothing more on this, and at this point we had given up on the issue. Another unfixed problem was that one of the two elevators was out of service for our entire stay. One working elevator for a six storey hotel is totally inadequate leading to long queues and overloading in the remaining elevator, particularly in the mornings.
