This place is not as advertised and disgusting. Can barely find the entrance, no signs , not landscaped. Another couple in the parking lot said they were tricked too. I want a refund as I left the minute I walked in. Thanks Expedia.

Marriott needs to inspect this property!

The staff were very friendly, but I felt as if I was in an abandoned building because of how dirty and desperately in need of cleaning and maintenance. I couldn’t believe that Marriott actually associates its name with this place! Very disappointed

This is the word hotel I’ve ever stayed at. It was so dirty, the end tables were sticky hair all over. It looks like it hadn’t been dusted in months. Ripped curtain shades and lamp shades stains on the rug and bedspread.if we hadn’t traveled all day and gotten here so late we would have left. So gross!!
