It was my first time staying with Marriott and I was not disappointed. It was clean, staff were friendly and it was quiet. I highly recommend staying here, it was close to the boardwalk and I paid for valet parking but I didn’t use my car during my stay because everything was within a walking distance. Will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful hotel.
We were extremely impressed with this hotel! Our room was huge and spacious (we actually had a handicap suite it was the only room left with 3 beds) the ceilings were high so it made it just feel very large. The outside of the hotel is beautiful. It’s in walking distance to the boardwalk. The protected valley parking was also a plus the food at the restaurant was quite pricey and not horrible, but very small basic portions for the cost. We never felt very full after eating and spending $100 for the three of us.

Beautiful and clean hotel,very close to the boardwalk.Breakfast was delicious. Some of the downside is only valet parking in the parking garage at a cost. Loading and unloading on main street.No complementary coffee or tea station in lobby.
