Omar, the front desk staff member was ver friendly and helpful. He offered places to see in Thunder Bay and made restaurant suggestions. He made us feel very welcome. The hotel was nice, but the public areas and hallways could use a good cleaning. The room was clean, large and had a full size frig, which was nice. Linens were fairly plush. Bathroom was large.

Very nice property in Thunder Bay

We enjoyed our stay at the Marriott TownePlace Suites. The location was close to restaurants and hotels at the waterfront. The bed was comfortable and the room had more storage than I had ever seen, even in a suite. It had a full kitchen as well. The only downsides were the very poor quality of the pillows, and trying to avoid the big potholes driving into the parking lot.
