Great rooms for family of four
Pros:

Room was spacious and clean - perfect for a family stay. Breakfast buffet great.

Cons:

Expected to pay for wifi - I am a member, but because booking.com had much better value for our family stay, I was not able to use wifi without being asked to pay for it. should be inclusive as a guest irrelavnt of rewards programme status

disapointe
Pros:

the hotel was lovely and nice decor and comfy rooms, nice for anniversary, however...

Cons:

we arranged to have our evening meal whilst watching the football, i called down to reception at 9.15 and asked what time food could be ordered, i was told that we could walk in without booking and food can be oredered until 10.15, we got downstairs at 930 menus were given to us and we browsed and waitied for waitress, we requested our order fish n chips and calamari as we were ordering she interupted and said the gas was off and wasnt working we could only have grilled food, none of that was non meat and we only eat fish and veg, this was annoying as we wasnt told ahead so we had to get a taxi to get food-very disapointing. i did mention it to the reception by stating you could have told us when i called and he said you should be able tio get the whole menu and he didnt know anything about it.

Helemaal prima.
Pros:

Altijd top bij Marriott.
Heerlijk bed.
Lekker gegeten, ook al kwam ik pas laat aan. Prima service.

Cons:

De wegen in de buurt van het hotel zijn erg slecht. Veel gaten en kuilen.
Kan hotel niks aan doen, maar zou opgelost moeten worden door de gemeente.
