This hotel is undergoing massive renovation. There are very limited public areas with comfortable seating to sit and visit. The main area in the lobby is right next to very loud construction. We were there for a conference and while I understand they weren't able to allow us to check in early, I was surprised that a hotel of this caliber was not able to text/email when our room was ready. We just had to keep checking back. Just a bit disappointed overall given the rate we paid.

The front desk staff are super friendly and as accommodating as they can be. The room I booked had robes listed as an extra. No robes. Hotel doesn’t have them. Really not a big deal. Prior to heading out noticed the comforter had a stain. Pulled back and the bed was dirty. Front desk changed rooms. It happens. New room in hand and bed checked headed out. Came back and thought why not visit the hot tub/ whirlpool and relax. Follow the signs. It doesn’t exist. Oh well at least the breakfast buffet they advertise on site and on the walls was something to look forward to. Went to bed and turned the air on. Room was warm due to being unseasonably warm. Woke up at 3 AM to realize the AC had no cool air. In fact…hot. Closed. Order a la carte. Stale croissant and hot chocolate. Barista used Swiss Miss. Same packet as the coffee area. Hotel is way to pricey for Macon area not to maintain or even approach the standards Marriott is known for. When I mentioned all the things that were closed or supposed to come with the room, they said they should update the website. But the website sure knew I was gonna pay $10 to park in a completely empty abandoned looking parking lot… With security lol

Booked online, got to hotel, was not told it was under construction. Our room had a workman in it installing lights. Was given a free breakfast ticket "for the inconvienance. The bathroom sink on the room did not drain. The main lobby by the restaurant and bar had workmen working with loud equipment til well after 9. Tries to charge us for wifi but we are members, made to pay for parking and extra 10.00. Ridiculous.

The property is under renovation so there were supplies in the hallway and it looked unappealing. The doors were hard to open and close as if they had been painted shut. The ballroom chairs were disgustingly stained. There was limited food to order because of the renovation. And I was charged $40 extra dollars for an upgrade. What the upgrade was I still don’t know. Very disappointed in my stay here.

The room was not clean - had a smell - and no basic toiletries - ie - bar soap. Housekeeping didn’t even come in between our 2 nights. The breakfast menu was not available-only a limited Buffett for $17 tax that was not much better than free continental at some hotels. After looking at the food and one of the covers closing loudly - from across the room a restaurant worker yelled at me for “slamming it down” and then two others joined in as we were walking away - to get breakfast elsewhere. We have stayed here many times over the years - but will not make that mistake again.

The hotel was convenient. The people at the desk were nice. I prepaid, but one of the clerks charged me again, but when checking out, everything was straightened out. I think the hotel is a old, ended up killing a roach in the bathroom. Not sure if its the hotel cleanliness or the guest....so hopefully that was just a one off. Other than that, everything is fine. People were nice and parking was easy.

There was a long line at check in, apparently because part of the system was not working. There was a fan/vent in the shower caked with dust. It looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years. The shower didn’t get hot enough. Housekeeping was knocking and tried to enter my room at 9AM while I was getting ready. I thought Marriott would be better than this.

The mattresses on the beds were the type that were made in 1930. The bed was so hard and lumpy I should have laid on the floor. I didn’t sleep a wink all.night. The bathroom was way too small too. Overpriced for what I received. Won’t be back.

phone system did not work. Neither the bar or the room TV could get the Thursday night football game. Had trouble checking in because the system did not work. Only breakfast choice was a $13.99 extensive breakfast. In the past a light breakfast was included with the room. I have written to Marriott customer service two weeks ago with no response. The bar could not call our room to tell us to come pick up our room service. We waited and waited and finally had to go down to the bar to pick it up. Very disappointed . We have stayed at the property a number of times. Likely no more.
