The bar and restaurant close at 10pm. The coffee shop had a sign that indicated it would be closed for 30 minutes at 10am. Staffing seemed to be light. My assigned room was occupied (I was able to access the room with my key) The same thing happened to another guest. There seem to be some kinks that need to be worked out during the transition to Marriot.
