Courtyard by Marriott Stockton

Location I booked a king room and was given a room with 2 double beds. I passed on another hotel that was $10 cheaper because it only offered 2 double beds. Explained to the clerk, he said he did not have any other rooms.

Quiet, late check out, friendly staff Scratchy towels, no extra amenities, cost more then comparable hotels with nothing above standards to set them apart.

Stay in Stockton once a year for a couple nights for a local convention. Usually stay at another Marriott, but this year the rates went up, so we did the Courtyard. The room was nice enough, but the first one was in the front with noisy street traffic going by, next to the elevator. Asked for another room, clerk seemed confused on what to get me. I asked for a room in the back away from the elevator. He got the elevator part, but I was in the front of the building still with the traffic noise. Tired of hauling my stuff and the trip, I gave up and just laid down in bed. Room did not have a fridge, but 42'' flat screen was nice once you found a channel with a decent reception. Other problems: Something was wrong with a service or hallway door at the end of the hall, bang, bang, half the time. They charge $9.00 for the free breakast now, but the quality was poor, very surprizing for a Marriott. Denny's does a much better job for less. For a three star hotel I was very disappointed with this one. Next year a search for something better -- and cheaper!
