    The windows in the room are foggy. There was an awesome storm the night we stayed, but you couldn't see it clearly. The washroom needs a fan, crucial when there is more than one person staying in the room

    The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The washrooms were very neat and the shampoo brand smelt amazing! The bedside table lamps were bright and great for reading . The pool area was attractive and the grounds were tastefully laid out and cared for.

    When we returned to our room after dinner, the TV no longer worked. Someone came and got it running again. I plugged it my phone, tablet and watch. None of the outlets worked, Didn't realize it until the next morning. Nasty.

    We were at a Memorial Service. That was fine. Food was plentiful and all seemed pleased. We also had dinner and breakfast with friends and food was good and service fine.

    Don’t know if the rooms on the 5th floor were all like mine but pretty shabby. Big rips in the curtain sheets, run down, scuffed furniture, creaky beds, old air conditioner units, poor decor. Very run down carpet in parts of the hotel. It’s like 1/2 upscale, 1/2 ghetto. Not worth a $500 rate at all.

    Easy to get to.

    That people who use the pool put towels on the lay out beds to hold it for themselves when they leave the pool area and Thier are people actually using the pool waiting for a bed to lay out in. That should not be allowed! I was out there for over two hours with some beds with a towel or clothing on it saving it for someone who wasn’t there the hole time I was out there. I got tired of waiting and left.

    The pool But it needs a good cleaning. The tile on the waters edge and a little under is filthy with yellow stuff that looks like mold. Last time I was there two years ago it looked the same. That need to be cleaned. The world pool the same except it also has things on the top of the water that you can clearly see next to the light around it. That needs a good cleaning to.

    Closet doors didn’t stay open, banged shut. Armchair in room was uncomfortable and lacked ottoman we had in original room. New room didn’t have tub, was smaller, fewer drawers, on level with parking lot, lacked small freezer in fridge we had in original room, front desk busy almost all the time, internet spotty,

    Upgraded because original room didn’t have safe. New room was inferior in about 10 ways but didn’t feel like moving rooms again. Pool was crowded and full of screaming kids but it was a holiday weekend so expected.

    Front Desk and cleaning services are not up to standard.
    • Business trip
    • Family with young children
    • Guest room, 1 Queen, Ground floor
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The cleaning services is not being delivered for, THREE consecutive days. The incident was that there were a non-English speaking maid knocking on our door at 10:30 am on July 6th (they skipped doing the cleaning on July5th too as we checked in on th 4th), we told her to please come after 2 pm as we will be leaving around 1 pm. It seems that she didn't understand the language as the front desk providing me with two confusing excuses when we came back at 6:00 pm and still found the room was not being cleaned, so on and so forth. The front dest named Alex, instead of sending me a maid right away, he left me waiting for about 30 minutes, and then I had to make a followed-up call to him by myself again of when can the room being clean. The prompt answer I got from him was the maid lady had come back at 2 pm knocked on the door but no one answered, so she decided to leave the clean towels in a laundry bag hanging on the door knob instead. This is unaccepatable, I asked for the cleaning asap as trashes were in the room for 3 days already. The bathroom and bed were not being done for the same period, but his answer was an excuse not a solution. Then, he asked me to hold the line........ After holding he line for about 5 mintues, he came back with another excuse saying that, the maid actually had been waiting for me in front of the room for ten minutes after being informed to come back at 2 pm.?!?!?! I was quite unpleasant and keep asking when can we get the room clean, Alex said that all maids was off duty since 5 pm!!! I can't believe I got these two confused answers from the face of BONVOY. I had to ask,"Do I need to check out now or cleaning room by myself", the front desk guy kept saying the maid was off duty already. I was very upset and requested for a cleaning right then, he said he will try but not confirmed when. I had to say that we will opted out our dinner and wait, just tell us when, we will wait.

    Good location, easily access to the placess we intened to visit, and meet up for meeting.

    We were told we had to pay 32.00 a day to park at facility, we had to wait until four to sign into hotel and there was not an option including breakfast, we had to pay for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    We had great customer service throughout our stay. We liked the amenities of the restaurant, salon, pool, jacuzzi, gym and the cleanliness. The room had accommodations with safety box, refrigerator, extra large tv screen, updated interior room and a great view of the pool and lounge areas. I liked the fact that the inside and outside pools were attached to each other and the location of the hotel is five minute drive to billiards, restaurants, RID Museum and downtown events. The Marriott has a credit card that you can get promotions, points and gift cards.
