Property is a Construction Zone right now
Property undergoing major construction - not informed in advance. Front entrance, lobby and hallways are in shambles. The tile around the pool is removed. Elevators out of order, ice machine on our floor out of order, construction started @ 10 AM New Year’s Day. We were there for a local late night NYE party and morning quiet respite. Could not comfortably sleep in. Room was clean and as expected. Employee @ front desk took forever to check us in, very polite and chatty - but his colleague checked in 4 guests while he assisted us. Unsolicited he was repeatedly disparaging of Union members - not knowing anything about us. Not cool. Not a pleasant stay for a Bonvoy Elite member with hundreds of nights on Marriott properties - first critical review ever left - very disappointed.

Can’t trust the staff
Had a microwave sent to the room while we were out to dinner on our first night and returned to find medication and clothing was stolen. An incident and police report were filed and the hotel did what they could to rectify the situation but since we were staying at the hospital that week we didn’t feel as if our belongings were secured. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful and accommodating after I had surgery but the security of our room is such an issue that we probably will not be returning which is a shame because it’s centrally located to the hospital and a clean property

Mediocre, could be good
Booked as it had a pool but that was being renovated. The rooms were in a separate hotel to the reception which involved going past lots of flapping plastic sheeting that hit and soaked you with water as you passed. The lift was lined with cardboard to protect it from builders - I felt like I paid a premium price to visit a building site. The location is good, room was okay once inside it but the hotel guest areas were poor and the Wifi was dire and barely worked in the room and reception.
