Very good suburnan oasis
Pros:

Location and proximity to hospital and walking distance to several restaurants. Breakfast was exceptionally well done.

Cons:

Not much night life nearby, but not a big deal for us.

Pros:

Όμορφη τοποθεσία, ευγενικό προσωπικό. Νιώθεις ασφαλής.

Cons:

Σχετικά καθαρό δωμάτιο αλλα θα μπορούσε να ήταν πιο καθαρό. Λίγο εγκαταλελειμένο ξενοδοχείο στους εξωτερικούς χώρους. Το δωμάτιο μας έβλεπε έναν τοίχο με τούβλα. Νομίζω οτι η τιμή του θα έπρεπε να ήταν πιο χαμηλή. Αν και Marriott εχει μειονεκτήματα.

Clean convenient to where we wanted to be. And they charge for our parking where we could’ve had for free.
Pros:

We loved everything about the room! The room was clean. The staff was pleasant, friendly and listened to everything I said, and their responses were just what I want to hear. The location was just where I wanted it to be.

Cons:

The parking lot was confusing with the new pay for parking signs and where to park. We paid for our parking and they’ve never checked the cars and we could’ve parked for free. The parking was on our stay at the Radisson.

It was ok/expensive
Pros:

Breakfast started too late, had to be at work at 7. Disappointed

Cons:

Wish you would partner with Inova for discounts for hospital employees in snowstorms.
