Took 20 minutes to check in . They tried to give me a room with a broken dead bolt until I asked for a new room. I asked the front desk if they had any water , the answer was no . The area around the hotel is dirty and filthy and you can hear all the traffic on the 90. Stay anywhere else

After traveling 480 miles celebrating our 11th Anniversary The facility did not have proper dining for our dinner. There was not adequate spacing in the bathroom you couldn't even close the door to use the bathroom properly, and to make makers worse the facility had NO HOT WATER after I discovered there was NO HOT WATER 2 staff members came to our room. Verifying that there was NO HOT WATER upon speaking to another manager. He did not want to address the issue because he felt it should be addressed by booked 3 party Expedia The Marriott, Courtyard, should regularly check their facility before renting there rooms out. It is not our place to go in and pay full price for a room and then discover that we're being taken advantage of as seniors. The manager who's name was Mark did not want to discuss the issue with me. And then made a statement.do you have water problems at your own house, which was totally out of character.

Very good

💯 polite, warm, efficient staff everywhere who went the extra step to be helpful. Bravo- front desk folks, bistro server and cook who adapted a dish for me, ( I appreciate the bistro a lot with minimal options nearby for a tired traveler), housekeeping! The marketplace options were decent and also nice to offer wine full bottles instead of.sub par single servings. NY has some good canned single serving wine options from their own wineries, so that would be a nice touch. My only comment is to provide a bathtub option in some rooms if possible, and the shower sprays water all over the floor when you turn it on and then get in. Maybe better quality coffee in the in room service. Great to have Starbucks in the bistro

House keeping is horrible. They took the dirty towels and put them with the clean ones. Didn’t even bother to clean one of the rooms; spill in bathroom was not cleaned and they left the dirty glasses and ice bucket in the room, didn’t bother to change or clean.
