Wonderful stay!
We stay here many times a year and always enjoy our stay. We love the King Suite with the extra sitting room that has a sofa and 2nd tv. The rooms are super clean and the hotel is surrounded by great restaurants and shopping. We also love the good breakfast buffet and friendly staff. We’ll be back!

We really like this hotel. My only complaint is the lack of USB ports. There was only one in the room which is very unusual. We actually needed 4. Even the desk in the room had no USB ports. Very disappointing.

Our 3rd floor had too much traffic noise. Asked the desk for another quieter room at 10 pm . He said they were booked up and nothing available. He offered me a pair of ear plugs.I then asked for a refund ;if we would move out. He said to ask manager the next day?? He had no idea about refund policy. So we got no sleep. When you spend $200 for a room you expect a nice quiet environment. I'll skip Marriot Properties in the future.
