The hotel was a little old and beat down but was decently clean. Every member of the staff we interacted with was really friendly and helpful. The walls between rooms are decently thin so it was a bit noisy at times.

We cut our trip short. The facility was noisy both from the hallway and the street noises. Our bed was tilted with our heads at a lower point than our feet. This was not comfortable at all. We were disappointed, Marriott's are usually better stays.

The room and hotel were very clean. Staff was friendly especially the woman who served/managed the breakfast buffet. The hot tub was very relaxing after a long day. The room seemed old but was clean and the bed was comfortable.
