Anna, Jun 2022

My only complaint is that despite my Marriott status and being a Marriott cardholder, they only gave me an extended checkout that was 30 min later than the normal one. Also the toiletries in the lobby are WAY overpriced. You charged my husband $3.50 for 2 advil pills. That’s ridiculous.
