This hotel used to be nice. It is now overrated and overpriced. The location is great but the rooms and furniture are less than what you would expect. The valet parking was not well received and you can’t charge the cost if the valet to the room. It’s a pass for me next time. No thank you!!

We arrived late in the evening and got a room with no heat. We didn’t get a new room till the next day early afternoon. We waited and waited to move rooms. The second room had hardly any hot water. We were told” that’s probably because lots of people are taking showers now”! Seriously! The staff was rude and very uninterested in helping resolve both issues. Food was awful in the restaurant. There was no manager of the premises all weekend. This is not what we’d expect from a Marriott.

The room was clean and situated in a convenient location. A lot of the historical sites are walking distance. Those that are farther, no problem, the metro is very near and well the rest is being able to fit time in order to do all the activities that you want.
