Our stay was great. The room was very clean. There were some HVAC issues in some of the rooms upon our arrival. However the staff was extremely accommodating & got us a room with no HVAC issues.

Great Stay
I liked the way the room was set up. It was clean as well. Getting off the elevator you can smell the clean carpet. They must have just had them cleaned. I was very happy with the stay.

The hotel is very nice and the area is great. Samuel, the valet, was awesome! Great customer service. On the other hand, the pregnant woman we dealt with on checkout had 0 customer service skills and is the reason I gave this 3 stars - otherwise our stay was excellent.

I already reached out to Marriott and I recd a partial refund. While the staff was friendly and somewhat helpful the room was extremely small, no addl pillows were provided for the bed and no pillows were provided with the linens for the couch. And more importantly we had to park on the street!

Everyone was very nice and welcoming! We did find an unused condom on the floor. But other than that the room was very clean! Some carpeting was missing in a small spot but nothing major!

The staff were nice and I felt welcome. The only reason for the low score was due to the paper thin walls. I could hear normal conversations clearly. But overall it was a nice stay.

Great overall, parking is tricky
Check-in was a bit tricky due to the lack of temporary parking in front. We were able to leave our car in the middle of the street with our hazard lights on. Once we checked in though, the room was spacious and quiet. The parking is 24.00 a day and limited. I would estimate there were about 20 spots. I would stay here again if I needed to, but there were other hotels in the area that might be better suited.

Perfection… except the shower
Everything exceeded expectations. The room was amazing, the bed was super comfy, staff was super friendly, and even breakfast was great.
However, I took one shower and it was HORRIBLE. I jumped in fairly quickly after turning the shower on and turning the handle completely on the hottest setting. The first 4-5 minutes were a little warmer than lukewarm. Then the temperature was nice and kinda hot… for about 2 minutes. Then I got shocked by freezing cold water. Put such a damper on my morning, but literally everything else about this hotel was perfection.
