Patty, Jun 2020
Pros (+) Very accommodating and willing to answer all my questions even during these uncertain times. Very friend staff very willing to help and still offered breakfast even if it was still a grab and go. It was a unique choice.
Cons (-) Honestly I think they are doing very well with the limits they are given right now.

Jill, Jan 2019
Pros (+) Nice rooms with full kitchen.
Cons (-) Room was not clean. First was put in a room that had not been cleaned at all, then moved to one that was not well-cleaned. I'm not picky about this stuff, but it was definitely sub-standard. When i pointed it out, i was offered extra Marriott points, which are pretty useless if you son't stay in Marriott's often, as i don't.
