Lazy staff and poor conditions/amenities. Our room wasn’t ready at 5:30pm (2.5 hours after check in) bc the staff didn’t update the room cleaning in their computer system. The next morning around 7am, we were woken up by not one but two fire alarms bc the kitchen staff burned food. On the second morning, there was no hot water. Multiple people called the front desk and were told that there was nothing wrong with the water, and the reason why there was none is because the hotel was at full capacity and it was too many people showering at once. I’ll never stay at this low rate hotel again. Marriott has gone down hill anyway.

Everything was great except the location of the hotel. We had a room by the busy road and it was very loud. We were offered a noise machine but still it was hard to sleep.

Some things were great and other not so much. The hotel appeared clean except for Ceiling in lobby appears very worn with possible water damage/mold and the carpets were so dirty in the hallways. breakfast was lacking. No fresh fruit and the waffle maker was not working. The overall selection was very limited. Coffee ran out.
