This is not the first time booking through a third party website like hotels.com. Whenever the room is not booked through the Marriot.com website I am automatically given the most undesirable room available. This time the door didn’t close completely and had to be locked with the latch. When mentioned to front desk staff, the only response was “oh I’m so sorry”. This is unacceptable and beyond disgraceful to customers

I didn’t stay. I had booked the wrong day on Hotels.com AND purchased the insurance to get my money back in case something happened. I discovered the mistake when I showed up two weeks early for my stay which is when I found out I had mistakenly booked the wrong day. The hotel was unmoved. The front desk clerk seemed annoyed I had used a third party service such as hotels.com. When I went to file a claim I didn’t meet any of the requirements for a refund. The booking mistake was my error. I own that. But will never use hotels.com again. I’d love that money back. And the insurance fee.

This courtyard has seen better days. Outside it’s located in a great little area with lots to do. Inside needs a good cleaning and repairing. I didn’t shower due to the funk on the shower floor. Dust and lint on the AC intake showed further lack of attention to detail. AC and internet were both on point. Staff seemed very friendly. I’m sure you’re on candid camera but you can walk from outside into the parking garage and up to the back of the lobby and then up the separate elevator to room floors without need of a key or room card. Not great.
