My only complaint was at check-in I had reserved a King room and somehow they were out of Kings and only had two queens, but yet the hotel was only half full. The rooms are very comfortable, great beds, and the staff are very freindly and helpful. Housekeeping does an incredible job. Very comfortable week long trip on business.

I am staying here for 12 days and am on my 8th day. It's a nice hotel. The rooms are clean, the staff are very polite and the bed is comfortable. The restaurant in the lobby is okay for simple meals but you will tire of it quickly.

Just stayed here for 2 weeks on a business trip, and as I packed I realized that I had not had a single negative experience at this hotel over that entire time.

I booked this hotel through Southwest.com as part of a package. I chose the selection that allowed me to pay at checkout, but well before my trip, the hotel was calling me, leaving voicemails at home, emailing, informing me that prepayment was required in order to get the rate specified. Well, when I finally spoke to someone at the hotel... More

That was the reason why our team members were proactive with your reservation. It is also every Marriott hotels' policy... More

The check in was quick, easy, and Eva was very friendly. The property was quiet and clean. I called the front desk at 11pm to get a wake up call, and never got the attendent. The location has several restauarants within walking distance. I walked to Sweet Basil Thai, about 1.5 miles. Had breakfast at the IHOP around the corner.

We checked in late in the evening. Service from the lady reception was very pleasant and she explained to us in details for breakfast and etc. The next day, we woke up late but the staff were accomodating when we purchased our breakfast. Overall, wonderful experience!
