The room was very nice with comfortable bedding. Though something was wrong with the heater in the lobby, it was freezing, and they couldn’t ring up food purchases, there was no offer of compensation. They gave me COLD coffee, and they knew it was cold. There was a buffet with food, but I think it was some kind of package with the room. They did not offer me a plate to get some-what the heck! The desk person in the am was not friendly at all, with no apologies given for the heat/ food status.

It was actually the service. I know that it's cold outside and even inside since there was a heating issue. But the lady who checked us in said nothing about the hotel, gave one word answers and had an air pod in her ear. The girl next to her seems perfectly pleasant so I am sure that it just wasn't her day. But checking into a hotel the front desk and the lobby set the tone. Once we got to the room the heat wasn't working, but they fixed that in minutes. The room wasn't cleaned properly, there were water marks and small amounts of hair around. All around it's sorry to say that this is what I have come to expect. But there are other hotels that do this correctly.

I recently stayed 2 nights here on a business trip. The room was clean, however I was given a double queen when I had booked a King room. The most frustrating part, though, was that I chose this hotel because their website clearly advertised airport shuttle service. I confirmed this by telephone the day before my arrival and even set the time for the shuttle to take me to the airport. However, upon arrival, I was informed that the shuttle service is only for pilots and flight crew. After confirming the day before and even setting my departure time, they acted like they were doing me a huge favor to let me ride the shuttle with the flight crew which left 45 later than I had made arrangements for the day before. Very unprofessional and unapologetic. When I informed them that their website is very misleading if they don't really offer airport shuttle service they didn't seem to care at all. And why would you schedule a shuttle ride by phone that you have no intention of actually providing? I would definitely hesitate to stay here again. To many things not delivered, without even an apology. There are plenty of other hotels that will appreciate your business and at least apologize when they drop the ball.

The hotel was beautiful, clean and had a very pleasant atmosphere. I had the smallest room, a king bed and pull out couch, and I felt it was plenty roomy. The bathroom had quality toiletries and the bedding was clean and comfortable. The tv system left something to be desired, considering it is 2026. The satellite was out for a good portion of our stay, and the internet options were very limited bc it wasn't a smart tv. I had to request multiple times that my room be cleaned and bedding changed, etc, but I gathered they were a bit overwhelmed with a bunch of events during my stay. Not a deal breaker, but worth noting. Overall, I would definitely recommend the Marriott at ISU. Nice staff, spacious and clean rooms, convenient parking and located right off the main drag through town.

The reservation was for three people, and the room wasn't stocked for three, there was no bedding provided for the pull-out couch and no extra towels. There was hair in the shower before we used it. We had a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door, which was ignored the following morning. Overall, this place was not worth the money.
