I put in for a lakeview and when I get there that wasn't the case. It was the whole purpose to my trip or night get away for my birthday, I live and the city and wanted a different view for the night. And the room was very small I ask for king size bed seem like I was in a queen. Also the hotel needs to update their plugs and put some more modern day plugs in. But it was ok.

Stayed during the week of New Years, picked this hotel cause I wanted the view of the lake which was really the only part that made it worth it. You turn the tv off and it’s just silent I mean so dead silent you hear everyone in the rooms around you, everyone in the hallways, all the cars in the street below like I’m so glad I brought headphones I could blast rain sounds but even that doesn’t stop people slamming their doors. The pillows don’t pillow at all, deflate immediately. New Year’s Day the cleaning lady walked in my room while I was sleeping even though I opted out of room service and the front desk lady (who could’ve been speaking another language wouldn’t make a difference) offered me $30 off and an oopsie sorry. My first night your bartender with the glasses and dark hair made me two margaritas which were so dirty I threw up and was so drunk when I went back to my room I had a horrible hangover the next day. Two drinks. Like how is that even… and the other time we went on New Year’s Eve the bartender lady with her cutout leggings also made extremely strong drinks that’s just not safe…. I will never be staying at a Marriott hotel of any kind I mean I am absolutely horrified. I would recommend atleast stuffing the walls and the beds I should mention the last day my back hurt so bad when I got home I wasn’t walking for days, like that bad, how is that even possible I don’t know I wish I was being dramatic.
