We have never stayed in a Townsuites by Marriot before and this is a very nice hotel. Beds are comfortable and rooms are extremely spacious. The lighting in bathroom and room were great compared to so many now that you can barely see. Great breakfast included in great price! I highly recommend this place to stay at!

The property was great but my wife and I slept two nights without A/C. We reported it and made them aware at the front desk, they said that they would report it and take care of it but it never happened. Having to spend two nights without A/C affected my wife physically and emotionally. It was just a bad unfortunity experience.
