Nice big area to stay. There were dirty dishes in the microwave. Also breakfast was disappointing- no eggs, no oatmeal, out of most things.

Very few amentiies (no lotion, no iron/ironing board), and the sink stopper was broken and sitting beside the sink. The furniture is quite old and tired looking, not what one would expect for a Marriott.

We arrived at hotel at 1515 (check in is 1500)in the afternoon. When we came in we were told there were no clean rooms and had to wait with my wife and children in the hotel lobby until room was ready. Shower leaked all over the floor in the bathroom. Smell in the room was bad and musty. Not terrible. But not the best either

The room was good size and would have been nice if it were cleaned properly - furniture was dirty, floor was sticky, and I saw a mouse in the hallway as I was leaving. The staff were not friendly nor accommodating. I was very disappointed and disgusted with the cleanliness of this facility. Would not recommend!

Have stayed here several times & have always had a great experience. Only issue I found this time was that the fitness center needs to be attended more often. I notified the desk once that I took the last towel - the next day there were 4 (other people may have used some in the 24 hrs). I was there 2 wks and never saw any changes in the room other than that. Was a spray bottle for cleaning, but the paper towels were never replaced.

I would not rate this hotel as 3 star anymore. Due to time this place is in need of maintenance. The pool was shut down due to no maintenance. There was garbage all around the buildings including dog poop that people did not pick up. The staff was great although we had someone pop in our room every day without waiting for someone to answer the door. In one room there was wax melted on the floor and wall. In the other room there was rusting in the bathroom due to no fans in the bathroom to help with moisture control. Molding on some of the wall edges were missing. The was also has a stack of cardboard supporting one of the legs of the bed.
