I was surprised by the size of my room. I also had a full kitchen which was nice. I had an amazing sleep v/c beds were very comfortable and pillows weren’t overly big like others. Only issue was when I got off elevator you could hear ice maker beeping but I couldn’t hear in my room. Overall great experience and I would recommend. Ps breakfast was fair… just eat waffles and fruit and skip the rest because it didn’t look too appetizing

Just ok.

This hotel was just ok. Pretty tired and in need of a facelift. Service not great. Breakfast very mediocre. Little things like no stand for the suitcases in the room. Guy at desk didn't know what one was. I can't remember a hotel that didn't have them and we travel a lot. Expected more from Marriott.

The staff was great. The room was decent with a relatively comfortable bed, but the road noise was a bit much and the breakfast only had a few things worth eating.
