We liked the unconventional setup of the room and the overall modern look and feel of it. The area around the hotel was extremely noisy with cars and motorcycles loudly revving engines and racing up and down the main road nearly all day and night. The room was fairly soundproof but not totally. Also, on the second night there was a large leak from the room above and several calls to the front desk unanswered. The leaking finally subsided but without response from the front desk or management. No one seemed to care very much. But that seems to be the overall attitude of the Marriott Corporation as of late.

Location excellent. Staff friendly. But. Paid extra for River view. Only view of the river was from the toilet. Room not clean. Grey stains dripping down bathroom wall. “Cafe” had only refrigerated food and no microwave there or in room - or even on our floor! Heat/AC glitchy. Set to 72 would go up once - then back to 62. Saturday afternoon they played extremely loud booming music by pool. Shook the room. “Closet” rod wasn’t even a foot long. No night lights. Only glaring overhead lights in bathroom. Had to pay $44/day for parking. The battery in our brand new car was completely dead when we picked it up. They had parked it and left it running.

This Hotel Does Not Work With 3rd Party Booking

They said they do not honor thord party booking sites, such as Hotels.com. We never got to stay and had to drive 3 hours home in the middle of the night. I will never use Hotels.com again.

Awesome hotel, some complications.

We had some highs and lows staying here. We loved the location and the hotel was so perfect and we loved the uniqueness of it. However, we never got room service even though we repeatedly asked for it. By the time they got to our room, it was very late, after 4;00 pm, so it was too late for us even though we asked as early at 1:00 pm for it to be done. There was also a massive pool party that we knew nothing about which took over the hotel and there was no place we could go to escape the very loud pool music. It would have been nice to have been informed and offered a consolation since the space was being taken over. However, there was a gentleman working at the front desk in the evenings that was so wonderful to work with and he went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. He was a huge bright spot to our stay.

The fridge did not work. There was no hot water the night we checked in. It was supposed to be fixed by midnight and the next morning at check out we still had no hot water. There is no self parking and the valet service was terrible. I paid $47 to park my car overnight. They tell you to text the valet 15 mins prior to needing car, it took over 30 mins. At checkout they couldn’t find my keys or my car! I had to walk through the garage to look for my car! I would NEVER recommend this property and I would NEVER return.

Upon arrival we were informed there would be no hot water 10pm -12am due to a technical issue. Upon awaking there was still no hot water. The other issue is the poorly located, lighted thermostat. When in bed, the thermostat's night light shines directly in your eyes making sleep troublesome.

solid 7/10!

a really nice choice for a less-expensive hotel that is still very close to the riverwalk. very clean, the shower was super hot (which i love), and the beds were comfortable. however, the walls are quite thin and the tv is pretty old (despite our room being newly renovated) so you only have access to cable networks. the thin walls meant that we heard people snoring and a dog barking in the next room, but that wasn’t anything a pair of earplugs couldn’t fix. valet parking is really your only reasonable option, and it’s $44 a night which kind of sucks. overall i’d say this is a good place to stay if you’re a student/on a mid-tier budget.
