What guests think
At Courtyard by Marriott Starkville MSU at The Mill Conference Center, guests often praise friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and the convenient location for Mississippi State University, but ongoing renovations and altered entrances or parking access have affected some stays.
Many describe rooms as clean, modern, and comfortable, though maintenance problems (doors, plumbing, AC, or hot water) and inconsistent housekeeping are mentioned by several. Dining is limited: there is no complimentary breakfast or lobby coffee, the bistro can be closed or understaffed, and some guests felt prices were high for what was offered. Rates can spike significantly on game or graduation weekends. Overall, it's a solid choice for MSU visits if you're comfortable with ongoing works and minimal breakfast options.

Facilities
Active renovations have closed the main entrance at times, with access routed through the garage/back entrance, and a few reports of pool or hot tub issues. Parking is generally free in the adjacent garage, though clearer guidance on the best level helps.

Check-in was seamless, and the front desk manager was super professional and informative. I really hate I forgot her name. The parking, however, is trash. There is a free parking garage for guests. To get to the actual hotel, you have to walk across the courtyard and past the poorly- lit patio to reach the back entrance to the hotel. At night, in the cold, that walk feels extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. As nice as the hotel is, I will not stay again. There should at least be security available at night.

Room very nice, had a lot of room for myself, wife and mom. The water in shower took a long time to warm up, but other than that, everything was fine. Renovating was going on, but hotel did notify me before my stay.

I booked through Expedia, soon arrival the front entrance was completely boarded up and blocked off, I thought the hotel was closed down. I had to call the front office, then I was directed to enter the back of the hotel which I arrived at night so I had didn’t like that. Then when I got to the little ass concession stand check in desk he said it stated it through their website. Not Expedia but their, which I think if they allow third parties to book their hotel, they should have them put it in their description as well. They tv kept freezing up in the room I had to unplug it twice, followed by being woken up 7/8 with construction work on the hotel. In my opinion they need to close it down until they get finished, or rooms shouldn’t be 240$ for one night for the inconvenience. That was ridiculous

The hotel was under construction. Booked to swim no pool- no warning when checked in. Shower curtain smelled sour. Bathtub handle so tight it took two to turn. Dropped all night. Part of dinner was burned. Will not stay here again. Hotel.com should not have recommended this hotel. You are not current with their construction

First time at this property in Starkville but appears to be our new go to when visiting. We did have a few issues and asked about getting them addressed but we’re told maintenance wouldn’t be back until Monday. I have never understood why an operation that is 24/7/365 doesn’t have support for the same period of time. I’m sure little things observed by housekeeping or guests would be addressed during off hours. One of our examples was the hot tub was not hot, but that couldn’t be addressed because there was no maintenance during the weekend. Still all in all we will be back.

The elevator had an odor of burning motor oil, and I could feel that the floor was broken under the carpet when I got off the elevator. One of the floors was under renovation, but I felt unease that the floor was in such bad disrepair. The staff was courteous. Also, parking is behind the hotel in a garage, but no one told me the best level to park is the 2nd level. Level two is the same level as the hotel, and you can enter from the back.

The property was being heavily renovated. The front entrance was not even open. You had to park around back in the parking garage and access through the pool area. And none of this was noted when we made the reservation. Overall, it was an OK stay. We were just in quickly for student orientation. Hot water in the bathroom took literally 5 to 8 minutes to reach our sink or our shower.

We stayed here for one night on a road trip. I was worried by a lot of the negative reviews but it was fine. Yes there was construction work ongoing but the room was fine, it was big, it was clean, for a one night stay basic but all was fine (we didn't pay a high room rate for this room). We didn't really use facilities there as we arrived too late for the pool and had breakfast out of hotel.

There was mold on the bathtub walls and under the rim of the bathroom sink. There was also pubic hair in the tub. We specifically asked for a handicapped accessible room but did not get one, even though we were assured we would get one. No grab bars anywhere near the toilet and only one on the bathtub wall and it was up too high for a short person.

I recently stayed at this hotel and, while the overall experience was decent, the bathroom left much to be desired. The bathroom door wasn’t properly aligned, which meant it wouldn’t latch securely—definitely an inconvenience. The shower faucet was loose and didn't feel secure against the shower wall, which made using it somewhat uncomfortable. Additionally, the toilet paper holder was so loose that it barely held the toilet paper in place. To top it off, there didn’t seem to be a working vent in the bathroom, which made the space feel stuffy after a shower. These issues, though not deal-breakers, certainly detracted from an otherwise pleasant stay.

My daughter and I stayed at the Starkville Courtyard Marriott for a long college tour weekend. We were greeted with a clear MSU bag for the football game with waters, bookstore coupons, and treats. The staff was beyond friendly and accommodating and the hotel was beautiful and clean! I can’t imagine staying anywhere else when in Starkville!

The hotel is under construction and they could not accommodate us in the correct room we booked. The shower was dirty and would not drain. The hotel smelled. There were no towels when we requested them from the front. Overall, it was not an enjoyable or comfortable stay. We have stayed in the past without this issues so I am hopeful that it is because of the construction that this is happening. We could have spent less and stayed elsewhere had we known what the condition of the property was, but we chose this hotel because it tended to be the nicest in the area. For what we spent, they should have offered at least a breakfast with the reservation to off shoot the rest of what we needed to deal with while staying there during construction.

The stay was terrible. The door to the room kept sticking. Had a hard time getting in or out of the room. There were no extra sheets for the sofa bed. The shower drained slow. Water was just standing in the shower for hours. And they did not notify us about the construction going on above us. We woke up on Saturday morning 8am to loud bagging and dragging of materials right above our room!

The rooms for our stay averaged $350 per night, a three night stay. First we went down for breakfast and coffee first morning NO FREE BREAKFAST OR COFFEE! So on top of $350 per night we paid $7 per cup of coffee. Next we didn’t see housekeeping for our whole stay. Third the water in the bathtub ran continuously. Could not shut it off. When I got off the elevator my first impression was that the carpet seemed old and worn but dismissed as me being too picky. Now I think they’re over priced, not well kept up, maybe trying to pay for the remodeling that’s ongoing. The room itself was roomy except for the constant running water. When I made a comment to front desk about being pricey and not worth it her comment was that I shouldn’t have booked through Expedia, they charge more.

The property is under construction at the moment, which I understand. However, when I pay $657.00 for a 2 night stay, I expect to have hot water, a fridge that works in my room, and a door will easily open with our key. Our door did not latch properly so one of us had to pull it hard while the other held the key to the door. Our tv remote was so dirty that I would not let my son use it. I feel like I paid way too much for what I got. I will not be staying there again.

Not many choices in Starkville and this is probably the nicest hotel they have. That said, they need to freshen up a few things and probably offer a little more staff. Can’t get blankets or towels at night without going down to the desk and have had the air conditioning not work and the tv not work. This past stay was fine except for shortage of staff.

Room desk lights did not work ( when i reported at desk, employee was ambivalent and had attitude), bathtub had hair from previous occupants and missing hand towels. only 1 coffee pack in room. Paying over 500$ for one night for this is ridiculous. No breakfast bar was available. Had to pay 11$ for 1 slice of toast with guac that took almost 20min for them to prepare. OVERPRICED but had no choice since it was graduation day. Mind you I booked this room in advance by 60days.

Paying over 500$ for one night for this is ridiculous. No breakfast bar was available. Had to pay 11$ for 1 slice of toast with guac that took almost 20min for them to prepare. OVERPRICED but had no choice since it was graduation day. Mind you I booked this room in advance by 60days.

A Marriott Courtyard is usually a better hotel and priced accordingly. The positive was: they didn't cancel our hotel reservation (there were no other hotel options for that weekend.) The negatives were: they changed our 2 queen room to a 1 king room for 3 adults. There was a sofa bed that was extremely hard and uncomfortable. There was no bedding for the sofa bed so we had to go back to the front desk and got sheets but were told "there are no pillows because housekeeping is shorthanded." The room had a really strong chemical smell either from the new carpeting or recent painting but we all had headaches in the morning. I am used to paying for breakfast at a Courtyard but there was no one working the breakfast bar in the morning so we had to drive elsewhere. The room was not serviced, despite chatting with the housekeeper on our way out and letting her know we were out for the day so she was free to go in. So that afternoon we had to go back to get towels so we could shower. I understand hotels go through renovations, and have stayed at hotels under renovation, but this was over the top a cluster and to pay as much as we did, I do not plan to stay there again.

My daughter and I stayed at the Starkville Courtyard Marriott for a long college tour weekend. We were greeted with a clear MSU bag for the football game with waters, bookstore coupons, and treats. The staff was beyond friendly and accommodating and the hotel was beautiful and clean! I can’t imagine staying anywhere else when in Starkville!

Very convenient for Mississippi State University, with easy walks to Davis Wade Stadium and campus events. A few guests felt the walk from the garage/back entrance was uncomfortable at night.

Check-in was seamless, and the front desk manager was super professional and informative. I really hate I forgot her name. The parking, however, is trash. There is a free parking garage for guests. To get to the actual hotel, you have to walk across the courtyard and past the poorly- lit patio to reach the back entrance to the hotel. At night, in the cold, that walk feels extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. As nice as the hotel is, I will not stay again. There should at least be security available at night.

Dining
No complimentary breakfast or lobby coffee, and the bistro/restaurant was sometimes closed or understaffed. Food and beverage value felt poor to some, though individual cafe staff received praise.

The hotel was under construction. Booked to swim no pool- no warning when checked in. Shower curtain smelled sour. Bathtub handle so tight it took two to turn. Dropped all night. Part of dinner was burned. Will not stay here again. Hotel.com should not have recommended this hotel. You are not current with their construction

Our room air conditioner was leaking very badly on the carpet and caused a horrible smell the entire weekend unless we had the air on. Which the air was not needed most of the time. The fire alarm went off due to steam from the bathroom shower and would not go off. I also added the $10.00 breakfast ticket which was not needed due to no breakfast without paying. Overall, it was an average experience.

The rooms for our stay averaged $350 per night, a three night stay. First we went down for breakfast and coffee first morning NO FREE BREAKFAST OR COFFEE! So on top of $350 per night we paid $7 per cup of coffee. Next we didn’t see housekeeping for our whole stay. Third the water in the bathtub ran continuously. Could not shut it off. When I got off the elevator my first impression was that the carpet seemed old and worn but dismissed as me being too picky. Now I think they’re over priced, not well kept up, maybe trying to pay for the remodeling that’s ongoing. The room itself was roomy except for the constant running water. When I made a comment to front desk about being pricey and not worth it her comment was that I shouldn’t have booked through Expedia, they charge more.

DO NOT stay here if is there is a game! They charged almost $700 a night for a very basic room. There was a cart parked in front of the window all weekend so we couldn't even open our window. No breakfast or coffee. No restaurant. I guess they are riding the location.
