Friendly and helpful staff. Nice lobby, small but adequate gym. Starbucks is only open until 10am which is fine for breakfast but early to close possibility of coffee for the whole day. Room needed.some updates - light bulbs were blown out, one of the two mattresses was old and springy. Good location for highway access, quiet, plenty of parking although paid parking here isn't justified, all aroun...

Pros (+) Booked a night here at the last minute. My partner and I were looking for a respite after camping in the desert. The room was clean and updated. The bed was pretty comfortable even without the comparison to camping. We had a balcony with a view of the pool.
Cons (-) The staff was friendly, but definitely seemed a bit inexperienced. This is a minor flaw because checking in only was extended a few minutes because the concierge had never processed a reservation via a third party.

Pros (+) The breakfast option - food was good, and menu selection has a lot of options.
Cons (-) The cooler to control the room temperature. While it was nice to have the thermostat to control the air, I was very difficult to make the room temperature comfortable. One degree lower in temperature made the room freezing, while one degree higher made the room hot and stuffy.

After finding out that we were extremely sore from an ATV trip, they allowed us to soak i...

Pros (+) We were able to make a reservation through Kayak when most other hotels were already booked for the 4th of July.
Cons (-) Pretty much one of the most disappointing stays we've ever experienced. The room smelled musty, the room was super overpriced due to the holiday, the staff was unpleasant, continental breakfast was not included, the room was small and had an awkward setup. This hotel was unlike my past Marriott stays at other locations.
