I must preface that I am on the road 12 weeks a year and stay in all sorts of hotels. Im a Gold member of Marriott and also Sheratons Club but this stay took the cake

I got into Clearwater New Years Eve. got to the hotel about 12:30a extremely tired and hungry.
Just drove in from Atlanta with New Years Eve traffic. I walked in to check in and met a young man at the desk. First, he was genuine in every way. He checked me in and I asked if there was any restaurants open in the area, he said no and room service ended at 11p. He did say that there were sandwichs and salads in the cooler. I took my stuff to the room and came back down to check out what was in the cooler. This young man (David Giaco) stopped what he was doing to see what he could put together for me and my wife. Again, I felt that this was an extremely sincere gesture. He found us fresh sandwiches, salads, drinks and just did everything in his power to make us comfortable.
The thing that struck me so different from any other encounter with any hotel chain was his attention to me and my situation. The way he did it and with the sincerity, was the best I have ever experienced anywhere at anytime. Great job David, I would love to hire you

The hotel looks great- new lobby, nice rooms, lovely pool. However---the walls are so thin that I could hear the next door neighbors opening their drapes. The tub had mold, the hair dryer didn't work, and the hall carpets were dirty. Their new bistro concept only works if they actually provide service there. The front desk was not helpful or familiar with hotel info ( one girl was good, but the rest were not). We travel alot and this is enough to make me shy away from Marriott.

I stayed for 5 nights for business...the food in the new renovated lobby was actually really good. The rooms are a bit dated, but really clean so it wasn't an issue for me. Small pool in a really nice courtyard, so it's not on the side of the road!

I needed to get away for some peace and quite so I decided to stay at this property because it's usually used for business guests and typically quiet on the weekend. Overall the property was nice but average. The room I was given was located next to an exit door. There were more people at the hotel than I anticipated and it felt like everyone used that door. All afternoon, evening and night I heard the door slam. The property manager needs to tighten the tension arm so it doesn't slam so hard.

The bed was the softest bed I've ever slept on, unfortunately, I prefer hard beds. I tossed and turned all night because the bed was making my back sore. The room was clean, well appointed with nice bathroom soaps and shampoo. The tv was a large flat screen and the free internet was great.

i was disappointed to find out the pool area was sort of closed. There were painters painting the outside of the building and there was a slight wind blowing the paint spray around so you really couldn't enjoy the pool. The hotel should have mentioned that during reservation and/or check in time.

The hotel had a great eating are and store area to buy sundries. The staff was friendly. The parking was free. Overall, it's a pretty decent value for the amount they charge. Just ask for a room away from any outside doors.
