As a frequent traveler, this is the best Courtyard I have ever stayed at. The rooms are amazing and the staff is so nice, but the food was superb. I usually skip the hotel food, but I was lazy here and it was an excellent breakfast. I found out the chef was a chef at a local restaurant and the meals were frankly amazing. This is a jewel and I suggest staying here and eating here!

Great value and location

The stay was very comfortable and the gym facilities and breakfast bar area were above average. The room was clean, safe, and provided a good nights sleep. The parking garage facility was right next door and allowed for unlimited entrance and exit. The staff was extremely polished. The reason for the 4 star instead of 5... our bathroom was not okay. Rusted shower fixtures and patched walls and ceilings indicated water damage from the bathroom above. We were on floor 3. Regardless of the bathroom, I've stayed at this location before and would book again. But I also hope that Marriott does some facility improvements soon before guest bathrooms start to feel run down.

Paid and overpaid

Stay was going well with pay later booking used until I woke up to a charge on my card when the room was already paid for. This then put me in a position that I did not have the access to funds to feed 4 children breakfast. With the transactions still pending I may be over charged and have to dispute for a refund.

When I got to courtyard, they told me that my reservations had been canceled for some reason but when I looked on the Expedia app, they were still showing my rooms booked,. I was there from California because my son was graduating from Pittsburgh University, the woman at the front counter was very helpful and she was able to still get me my two rooms & She honored Expedia prices. All of staff there was very friendly and helpful with whatever we needed, we were there for a whole week.
