This review is based on the cleanliness of my stay and the housekeeper who was caught not changing linen. Once entering my room checking in, I noticed a lot of hair on my pillows and sheets. I knew the sheets weren’t changed at all. I saw a housekeeper outside of my room and asked her for pillow cases and if the sheets could be changed. She said “oh I ran out”. I’m wondering if she ran out, how are you changing room linen? She had no bed linen in her cart except towels and toiletries. This is beyond foul. She then said “ wait a minute” and proceeded to walk to the end room which might’ve been the linen room? She handed me a bunch of wrinkled linen for ME to change. Second foul! I assumed these sheets could be used. I am disgusted by my stay and the upkeep of this place! Never again.

I requested to change my two Queens to King as I was with my spouse. The answer from the Front desk that as the reservation was from an OTA she cannot change it. After much convincing she said the property was sold out. The parking lot at 8 pm was not very full. I personally think this was not a mistake of the front desk as Marriot needs to train their staff that OTA or direct booking customers must get the same hospitality treatment.
