Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was handicap and shower had no curtain. The tile in bath was disgusting. I asked to switch room and the guy at the front desk was so unprofessional and passive aggressive. Almost to the point where I felt unsafe and considered leaving. He was more concerned reading his book than offering a solution. Complete psycho path and should never be allowed to represent the Marriott brand. I would never stay or recommend this place.

Great experience. Clean facility, spacious, inviting. Guests above my room were loud all night. Breakfast options, or the lack thereof, were poor. Only had pork sausage. I dont consume pork.
