We cut our trip short. The facility was noisy both from the hallway and the street noises. Our bed was tilted with our heads at a lower point than our feet. This was not comfortable at all. We were disappointed, Marriott's are usually better stays.

the first room we were put in, the air conditioner would not work and the shower would only work with extremely hot water, when you would turn it to cold it would shut down completely. we informed the day MGR and when we returned that evening the night MGR was unaware of any of our concerns. he put us in another room and this one had a tub spout that would not work to transfer water to the shower head. I'm 6'5" tall and do not take BATHS. when we checked out the day MGR was not at all interested in our satisfaction

Decent hotel for the price
The hotel was a little old and beat down but was decently clean. Every member of the staff we interacted with was really friendly and helpful. The walls between rooms are decently thin so it was a bit noisy at times.

The young man at check in was very polite and helpful. I had some concerns at checkout. The young lady at checkout wasn’t professional and she never asked about my stay. She was kinda rude but the other young lady there with her said have a nice day ma’am . So fit wasn’t for her I would have been upset

The room and hotel were very clean. Staff was friendly especially the woman who served/managed the breakfast buffet. The hot tub was very relaxing after a long day. The room seemed old but was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Lobby was under renovation, however this had no bearing on the quality of my stay. My room was newly renovated and very clean. Very comfy bed and plenty of room. Pool and whirlpool spa were both clean and enjoyable in the summer heat. Staff were pleasant and helpful during entire visit. Would definitely stay again.
