We stay at this hotel once a year to visit relatives. We like the fact that it's one of the older hotels since it offers "large" rooms and great parking that is free.

Breakfast cost way too high.

My biggest issue was the fact that every hotel around the world has free continental breakfast and the Marriot does not. I thought paying $56 for the both of us was very high considering it was no different than the breakfast at the best western for free. We do understand the area but come on breakfast?

Just Okay.

Tedious process when it came to checking in because the front desk spelled my last name wrong. I also paid for breakfast but the front desk forgot to give me the vouchers and I had to ask for it on my last day there. Overall, the experience was okay.
