Check your booking carefully

Hotels.com overbooked the rooms I was asked if I could take a different room one with two queen beds and no pull out couch instead of the King bed I had booked so I could accommodate Marriott rewards members( which I was one a one time), because of the overbooking by your company After much searching the desk staff was able to find what I had booked It worked out but I don’t get the miss communication between your booking and hotel I was not the only person in this situation

There was a lot of repair and upgrades going on. Our room had a piece of blue tape with the room number on it. My wife has asthma and the smell in the room from the construction was really bothering her. We could not stay in the room so the person on the front desk was very nice and said we could leave and we would get our money back. Fortunately we found another place to stay. This was not a good experience !!!

Quite satisfied

Had a good stay. Room was clean and as expected. Had a really good spread for breakfast. There was unexpected construction happening at the hotel but it wasn't bothersome. The elevator is ridiculously slow, take the stairs.

They were renovating the property, which I did not know until I got there. But staff was very friendly. I did get a renovated room. Which had an open shower with no curtains. Didn’t like how close the vanity was to the shower because the vanity would just get completely wet. There was only one mirror in the whole room and it was tiny and not the best lighting. No full length mirror. I would stay again, but it is very pricey, especially for the renovations and the quality of the renovations.

Our room was not serviced at all. Bed was unmade. There were no clean towels, so we left immediately when we got back to the room after the event that we were at. We forfeited one night stay at the Fairfield by Marriott. I have never had such horrible service in any of my hotel stays

We checked into our room on the second floor. Things were good. Two days later we were told we had to move to another room. This room was clean but had no closet space, no hair dryer and had difficulty with the lock on the door not operating correctly when you went to leave. Beds were comfortable and breakfast was good.
