Just Nope - Awful

Nasty filthy hotel. Had to be moved from first room - wonky backwards-working bathroom door, curtains torn & TV didn’t work. Got moved to another room - smelled like musty dirty smell. Carpet dirty with red stains. Didn’t sleep well because stale dirt odor constantly. AC ran every few minutes - annoying! Literally holes in hallway ceiling tiles. Elevator rickety, noisy & hot. Hotel clerk says they’re finally starting renovations after waiting for 5 years! Plastic sheeting on walls in lobby/dining area. Hotels.com should have disclosed this about hotel being renovated before I booked it. Marriott & Hotels.com, I am highly disappointed in you both! Last Marriott we stayed in I booked directly & stayed at was absolutely pristine. This place was a total disappointing dump! One of the worst places we’ve ever stayed.

Quick stop in town for a road trip. The hotel was as advertised. We had a nice run/walk the morning we checked out along the river. I messed up my reservation on this app and the hotel was kind enough to straighten it out for me to my satisfaction. I appreciate thier help.

Okay stay; good location

The location was great since I had a clinic across the street. It is an older property and needs some touchups on paint, carpet. The decor was updated but it still needed some touches. The hallways are dark and need some better lighting. The areas where there were exits were pretty ratty. I was disappointed there wasn't any continental breakfast that was free, but it is a higher grade hotel. I did like the complementary newspaper.
