The bar is extremely small. Almost non-existent. The bartender was trouble. First two drinks were very weak. After i asked for stronger drinks he charged me double the price of the first round.

Great location and clean and the staff is friendly..the bad is they want to charge 15 per person for a standard breakfast buffet that is the same quality and food they give you at cheaper hotels that is generally free with the room. They also charge 15/day to park and they do not cut off charging the parking fee if the hotel is over parked. Drove around each night I was there trying to find a place to park that I was billed for only to find every spot taken. Also I did not see any type of parking security on sit so it made even less sense to charge customers to park. Do yourself a favor and stay at a cheaper place that doesn't charge you an absurd amount to eat substandard hotel buffet food that is included with the stay at other places and also doesn't charge you to park.

First, the room. I boom a king size bed room and was given a handicap room which I’m not complaining because it was more space. Next, the parking! You have to pay to park! If I’ve paid to stay with you then my paid should be free. There was a free parking garage across the street but you could only park on 1 or 2 which was always full. Now, the fire pit that’s shown in their photos, it didn’t work and according to an employee it hasn’t worked in over a year and it’s the main attraction that made me book. Last is my biggest complaint the breakfast. They charge you $15 and the food is trash! It’s the exact same food as any other mediocre hotel with free complimentary breakfast and the food was cold. They didn’t even have flavored coffee creamer but the room itself it was clean but the a/c wasn’t working properly

Nice location. Clean room. Good location. Five night stay and 3 days we had to go down to Lobby to get our room key activated. 1 day had to get the shower drain cleared out so water would drain and the next day for the counter sink to be cleared. Albeit they came quickly, it was an inconvenience. Web site didn’t inform us there was a $15 daily parking charge or the free option was across the street in a parking garage. Breakfast was $15 or no food for you. With all the hotels in the area? I’ll likely choose one of them next time.

Booked for the courtyard open fire-pit and garden area. Fire-pit broken. Courtyard had cigar/cigarette ashes all over the grounds. Cushions stained with ants crawling all over them. Area had trash on the ground. So shocked this was a Marriott hotel. Sad for such a newly build hotel. Staff friendly.

A very nice hotel with possibly too few people working. I say that because the pool was not stocked on towels, and they seemed to have just one girl handling all the requests that night. But our junior suite was great! Very comfortable, loved the bathroom, and the breakfast was the highest end of middle. Pool was very large, so the water was not as warm as "heated" would imply, but it was not completely intolerable. Truly a nice facility. It just seemed very... empty.

Parking can definitely be a hassle even if you pay, considering their parking lot is small. What they don’t say is the 3rd level of the parking garage is also paid parking. They need to have better pricing for parking closer to the building vs 3rd level parking garage.

First off Javion at the front desk provided the BEST customer service in a housekeeping related bad situation. He did his best to accommodate but the overall cleanliness ruined this stay. Kudos to him! He went above and beyond to help. Had to request 3 room changes for a total of 4 rooms. Room #1 -Arrived and found hair on the bathroom counter and sink. Requested room change. Room #2-Arrived hair in the bed when I checked and pulled back covers. Requested change. Room #3- Hair in the bed. Slept on couch due to the fact that I had a long day at work and needed rest. The hotel is beautiful, and my previous stay was great. Housekeeping needs to be held accountable for their lack of cleaning detail. Housekeeping missed the mark in a major way. I hope this is better for the next guest because we will not stay here in the future.3 room changes due to uncleanliness is not acceptable under any circumstance. Again Javion, thank you for all your effort!

The hotel is located in a great spot for shopping and eating. The parking garage across the entrance is easy to get in and out of. The lobby was presentable and always had water and cups. The bad part was the actual rooms. They are seriously outdated. The bedding, towels, and pillows are old and so thin from washes. The worst part was the plumbing. The bathroom produced a horrible smell of sewer. We were originally on the 7th floor where the adjoining lock was broken and due to safety issues we requested to fix or move us. The smell was worse on the 7th floor too. The 6th floor smell was bad but we knew it was a deep plumbing drain pipe issue that the engineer wouldn’t be able to fix while we were there. Luckily we were out of the room most of the day. We did not use the pool or buffet.

Hot water didn’t work in the shower - makes you think it will until you’re in there and it goes straight cold. Walk into the room set at 70 and can barely function bc of the heat. Mini fridge didn’t work properly either.

Overall good. Bed was little uncomfortable but I was supposed to have 2 queen beds and they gave me 1 king. They didn’t tell me this so we went up and then had to go back down to the front desk where they said they didn’t have 2 queen to give me. My guest slept in the same bed with me. Disappointing

The outside areas of the property are gorgeous but the room was a little stuffy. The bed and the couch were not cozy and there was only one area to get ready in - the bathroom. Facility needs to update beds, couches and add a mirror or place to get ready so when there is more than one person they both have space. We woke up to the next door neighbors cell phone alarm going off. I was expecting a little bit more. It is in a nice area close to shopping and walking distance to coffee and breakfast. There is an indoor pool which is a perk. We got a balcony room but the balcony was tiny so wouldn’t recommend upgrading to that. Would probably ask for an inside room as there is a ton of road noise.

Very disappointed. I arrived at 2:20 and when I went to check in, the front desk employee, Donnell, told me there was a $25 early check-in fee if we arrive before 3 PM. I was very surprised about this as I received a text message at 10 AM in the morning that said my room was ready and did not stay that extra charges may apply. I also paid extra for breakfast and they did not give me my vouchers until I went down to ask the next morning. Finally, when I checked out, they assumed I parked on the premises and did not even ask if I was parking there. They went ahead and charged me $15 a night without my consent to park my vehicle on their premises. I actually parked across the street but nobody even asked if I was planning on parking on site.

Very nice hotel but arrived at 2:35, with no other guests in the lobby, to see about checking in. Was told there is a $25 fee for early check in prior to 3. So decided to go get a drink at In and Out and came back. Also advised, you have to pay for parking on and around the hotel in an ample parking spaced area. Not much is complimentary for the price.
