I could see shades of my stay when I was at the resort in Fort Lauderdale at the Marriott but the wa
Pros:

I was charged for several things that I don’t know what they were for and I tried to call the local Homewood location and tell them to take it off my bill. They told me when I checked out it wouldn’t be charged out yet. I was charged anyway, and the guy, the old man at the checkout at the check-in that night was so Nosy about my business so asking me all kind of questions. I wanted to talk to the manager. I called Monday and left a message and nobody’s called me back yet.

Cons:

See above. I called Marriott corporate and held for eight minutes and never got through either.

$10 a night parking fee!
Pros:

stayed there this past Saturday night (march 14,2026). I was shocked when upon checking in that they now charge $10 a night for parking. usually hotels charge for parking if they are located downtown. This hotel is not close to downtown! I would not stay here again because of it. There are many other hotels in the area that don’t charge an extra fee for parking.
