What guests think

At Courtyard by Marriott St. Cloud, travelers frequently praise clean, comfortable rooms and helpful staff, while noting the convenient location near SCSU, restaurants, and venues; however, recurring late-night street noise and some maintenance or cleanliness issues appear in reviews.

The adjacent parking ramp is handy, though some guests disliked fees or found the layout tight and confusing. On-site dining is limited, Starbucks service ends early, and breakfast is not included, though a few found the simple dinner offerings good. Good fit for short stays and event trips that value walkability.

It went very smoothly. Early check-in, free parking (weekend) and very nice room.

I appreciated having dining options (though very limited) on-site, as well as sheltered parking. A/C system is noisy but most hotels are. Information in the room suggested there would be housekeeping service, but there wasn't. Should be clearer on that message.

Parking 🅿️ ramp, small, tight spaces. Worried about people hitting me. Just the whole layout of the ramp and hotel was odd and didn't make sense to me. Why would I pay to walk all around a weird ramp that I cannot easily determine which spots are for the hotel and which are for private spaces, then go back in and out to start over while it's 3 degrees outside. No, not happening again. WIFI not working, as in, not working at all. Unacceptable for anyone much less business travelers. Won't be back here.

We stayed one night for a concert at the Ledge. Room was clean, bed was very comfortable and had lots of space. The room had everything we needed! We would stay again. The front desk could have been friendlier, the ramp was free to park nights and weekends (we stayed a Friday night) but we were still charged to park in the ramp by the hotel. I feel for the price of the room the parking fee should be included.

Per usual, I was asked to use a card for incidentals upon checking in even though the room was paid for in advance. When I entered my room and read the "welcome card," I discovered that the guest parking was contracted in the adjacent ramp & the $4 nightly fee would be charged to my card as an incidental fee which I found off-putting. I didn't complain because, after all, it's $4. But, still. C'mon! The room, at a glance, all appeared orderly. When I 1st used the toilet I noticed that there was toilet paper in the water. I dismissed it as a simple house keeping oversight during cleaning. The bedroom television never worked properly. Each channel was pixelated & choppy. The living area TV work perfectly so I simply chose to do all my viewing there since I was staying only one night.

Perfect location for the convention center. Parking garage is great. Staff is super friendly and helpful…. Everyone is nice. But… the hotel seems run down. It needs a “not so gentle” facelift in the guest rooms. I had a suite and you have to close the bedroom door to walk into the bathroom because it opens across the bathroom entry— seems simple, but not fun in the middle of the night. Positives: The little restaurant area has Starbucks coffee - if you can get there before 9:30am, when it closes. The food for dinner is a simple menu but food is good. Also, it is in a great location with many restaurants to walk to.

Room was clean and had all the things I wanted. However, if you have a west facing room (towards the Red Carpet bar), late at night on the weekends you can hear everyone out and about. Otherwise everything else way great and we didnt hear other patrons in the hotel which is always a plus.

Our rooms smelled of either mold or musty/wet smell. Paint spill on the walls. Only 1 garbage can. The carpet was dirty making our shoes, feet, socks black. TVs could be upgraded to smart tvs. We couldnt even watch 20 minutes of a show without the cable digitizing or pausing during it. The issues were brought up to the manager but no refund was offered. We only got an apology. This hotel doesnt offer free breakfast unless its 4 hours past breakfast and they have extra fresh fruit to get rid of.

You have our stay dates wrong. Courtyard is very clean, neat and the staff was wonderful! It was raining, so asked if they had an umbrella we would borrow. They found one for us to use two different times...different staff. The maintenance staff was also extremely helpful when needed. The hotel is within walking distance of many fun dining places, flower shop, gift shop and antique shops. We felt very comfortable with the surroundings. Nice weekend getaway.

“The Red Carpet” across the street had an all night bar brawl that lasted through a thunderstorm; and the yelling was louder than the thunder. If you look it up online apparently this is not unusual for the area. It’s also rated “F” for safety online; we did not know this when booking.

Everyone was very nice and helpful, but the wallpaper was covered with white paint and it looked like a bug was squished on the ceiling. Our view out both of our windows was a brick wall 10 feet away unless we sat on the window seal so we could see what was going on in the street. The elevators had a better view….
