I stayed 3 nights in the largest room at the property. The room did not have a microwave (later put in by the staff after bringing it to their notice). The room wasn’t serviced for a day even after being asking for it to be. The bathroom was dirty and needed to be cleaned on that day but wasn’t cleaned even after requesting it. Finally when asked to be moved to a different room that request was not considered as well. I prefer to stay in Marriott as I am a bonvoy member but this was the worst experience by far.

Staff could have been a bit more hospitable. There was not a continental breakfast and I was told it had one when reserving the room. Couch bed was very uncomfortable and was very small.

Like I was in another Marriott’s location and this one is so poor and not enough clean. I mean the bedding smells like someone was before us with the perfume on the pillows and also like a smoke of cigarettes… So, it was such an unexpected experience in Marriott…

Under construction when we went. Bed and room are decently clean but almost no space when sofa bed is opened. Sofa bed and it’s mattress dirty with hairs and shoe marks everywhere. Water marks on the painting in bathroom and ironing board. Towel bar above sink broken. Front desk staff doesn’t know where the ice machine is. Cheaper price compared to similar level hotels in vicinity. I guess you pay what you get.

Everything was terrible. First is all, the property is under renovation and you have to walk through it to check in and get in and out of the door. We’re talking dripping paint on the ceiling, saws buzzing, tile being cut…it’s a mess that was never mentioned during the booking or subsequent confirmation. The room we were given faces the main highway where trucks from the nearby warehouses travel day and night, so the noise is overwhelming. The hotel was not sold out, so why give us the worst possible room? The tv remote didn’t work. They never cleaned the room until we asked. We stopped by the front desk and they sent someone to replace the tv remote, which stopped working again on day 2 of our 3 night stay. When we asked to get it replaced again we were given another which would never turn off so the tv remained on all night. The housekeeping staff must’ve been angry that we complained about the room not being cleaned because when we came back later the bed was disheveled as if someone had just gotten up from it. We ran out of toilet paper and had to go hunt down some. When the trucks weren’t making noise the ice machine located right next to our horrible room was being loudly used. The room does not even have a safe and is, at best, a motel - even down to the old-school floor air conditioning unit. Marriott should be ashamed!
