I had such a great experience during my stay, and I have to give a special shoutout to Tracy at the front desk! She was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and made check-in so smooth and easy. You can tell she genuinely cares about the guests—she made me feel right at home from the moment I walked in. Her warmth and professionalism didn’t go unnoticed, and I truly hope her team knows how much of a gem she is. Thank you, Tracy! 💖

Not the most comfortable bed

The room was nicely designed and clean, but the mattress was saggy and there was so much city noise and such a lack of insulation that they provide a sound machine and earplugs.

Not the best AC or Marriott property

We came for a couple of days of work and booked AC as it is our go to hotel. This property has much smaller rooms than other locations which is not so bad but the room was not properly cleaned. A curtain was hangin tore from a corner, there was hair and dust on the bed, and the sheets are paper thin and old. Front desk responded promptly and brought us clean bedding. Assistant manager personally apologized and they brought us an amenity package with snacks to the room. We appreciate the response to the issue. Breakfast runs until 11 and consists of fruit, cheese, cold cuts as well as several a la carte items. The also have several coffee offerings during breakfast. Another thing to keep in mind is the noise level day AND night. We were on a high floor and were constantly awaken by sirens, horn honking and noise from the street at random times in the middle of the night. They could use some noise canceling curtains. They have a noise machine as well as ear plugs on the room so you know it’s noisy. There’s a good hall across the street and several dining options around. Parking is an issue in general but the hotel offers valet parking for $50 a night which seems a bit high but it’s the going rate around the area. it has a small exercise room, free to use laundry room consisting of a washer and dryer, and a roomy lobby. I wish the room had been ready and clean upon arrival. Overall a 6/10.
