Good clean property. Only issue is one side is facing the metro and there is a lot of noise from that station. Request a room not facing Colorado Ave/Metro to sleep better.

For $500 for a night, I would expect a little more

Got in pretty late. Valet was only option. $60 overnight charge seemed a bit steep. No one at valet at check in. Other than that, place was fine. No real dining options other than the “cafe” downstairs that was just a knock off starbucks

Great location just a couple of blocks from the pier and promenade. The hotel was really nice, clean, and modern with a unique colorful aesthetic. The room we stayed in was incredibly spacious and comfortable. The pool was a bit small, could easily get crowded. We would stay here again.

Wouldn't recommend

Unfortunately this wasnt a good stay with Marriott. Started off with hard to find parking. Then Valet was $70 to park when I spent $405 for a night for a small hotel where the fold out bed was broken with no blankets. Once requested the sheets were dirty. The water pressure was awful in my room to the point we couldn't even take showers. Then I text Valet for my car and it states there to busy so they can't take the text function. However there wasn't anyone down in Valet waiting nor was there 20 minutes prior. As I was down there for breakfast. Overall not a good experience.

Decent hotel, but for the price I paid I expected a little more. Bed was lumpy and uneven, pool and spa area was average, my rooms window was directly facing another rooms window so I had to keep the curtains closed or risk someone watching us. Parking is essentially valet only.

Nice, but would look elsewhere next time.

Standard as far as hotel goes. Pro - location close to all. Con - water pressure is dismal. Ask for a room not facing the train. You can hear it at night. Coffee shop only open mornings and evenings. You out if you need afternoon snack. Wall and ceilings ate thin. You can hear your neighbors easily even if they aren’t making much noise.
