We have never stayed in a Townsuites by Marriot before and this is a very nice hotel. Beds are comfortable and rooms are extremely spacious. The lighting in bathroom and room were great compared to so many now that you can barely see. Great breakfast included in great price! I highly recommend this place to stay at!

Overbooked

Apparently hotels.com overbooked the hotel. We arrived at midnight with 2 sleeping children and were unable to check in. It took us over an hour with two extremely tired children to find a new hotel.

Under renovations. We were not told about this prior to booking. Our room had sheet rock repair and had a smell of a nursing home. Staff unable to cancel our appt since we didn’t book through the motel. Signage in room said to lock door because construction may require entrance by workers.
