Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I recently stayed at a Courtyard Marriott property and, unfortunately, the experience did not meet expected standards. While the brand typically delivers reliable accommodations, this location fell short in a key area: cleanliness and air quality. Upon entering the room, there was a noticeable musty, mildew-like odor that appeared to be coming through the air vents and persisted throughout the stay. This created an uncomfortable environment and suggested potential underlying issues with the HVAC system or moisture control. For a hotel operating under the Marriott name, this was disappointing and not in line with the level of quality one would anticipate. Overall, I would rate this stay as closer to a 2-star experience due to the condition of the room. I hope management addresses these concerns promptly, as the issue significantly impacts guest comfort and perception.

1 of the queen beds seemed to have a bit of a support issue on the left side in room 328. Bed might have even been a bit sloped down on that side. Ordered a full egg breakfast with eggs over easy. Eggs were raw on top and yolk was cooked on bottom. Told the server they were not right and he said "that's how over easy are supposed to be". Actually, over easy done right means no ra white on tip and yolks big and juicy. We only stayed one night so really can't say much more. Nice view if you get a waterfront room. Bar closes at 10p but the girl at the bar says they stop server at 9:45p. That's pretty early and they serve until 10a. There's nothing stopping you from sitting in that area as that's what it's there for. I can't say we would not stay again, just not have breakfast there or use their bar as it has zero ambiance.

The room was clean but TV didn’t work, there was NO shower pressure and it would cut in and out turning cold and hot randomly. I called ahead of time to confirm they had a hot tub and was told they did. This is WHY we booked here in the first place. When we arrived it was broken and gave no indication of it being fixed. We told them about the issues in our room and it was never addressed.
