Our room was dingy, missing grout in the shower/bathroom. Having stayed at many Marriott hotels and loyal to the brand. City express suites was a disappointment . Every employee from Security to the front desk was extremely polite, helpful, and attentive. It may be the decor or the lighting that is not inviting or gives a comfortable or welcome vibe.

Nuestra suite no estaba lista cuando llegamos que fue a las 5 pm y el check in inicia a las 3 pm, nos hicieron esperar con mi mamá de 93 años, mien tras registraban a otros huéspedes que llegaron después de nosotros y hasta que se le dió la gana a la recepcionista nos dijo que la habitación no estaba lista. Nos dieron una de menor categoría, bastante mala, y de menor precio y sin ninguna compensación. SOLO FUNCIONA UN ELEVADOR PARA 12 PISOS DE HOTEL, imposible bajar y subir por escaleras por estar en el piso 8. Según teníamos dos bebidas de cortesía al llegar, pregunté y me dijo la persona "ahí está la maquina de café si quiere" A lo que también teníamos derecho. Estuvo muy muy mal...

The staff was nice but they were unprepared for a family out size. Knowing we were a group of six, they had not place the extra bed sheets we needed. Also, the breakfast was not the best. The beans and the chilaquiles sauce were watered down. The room needed a renovation.

The room I stayed in was Room 401, located at the far end on the right after getting off the elevator, which is situated in the center of the building. While the room itself was acceptable, the Wi-Fi speed was extremely slow, to the point that it was difficult to even send emails. For guests who need reliable internet access for work, this was quite inconvenient and was the most disappointing aspect of my stay.

Bedroom floor was dirty & sheets definitely didn't appear that they had been changed. I requested my sheets be replaced, and I had to ask that the floor be cleaned. Amenities come with free breakfast but when I went there wasn't any breakfast and when I asked, they said they only bring out breakfast the first hour and the next three hours people basically have to hope there's food left.
