Needs some work to be Marriot quality

It is older and dated they are doing some upgrades. The internet was difficult to get logged in on. Really when to you want to talk to technical support for a connection. after goofing around with it for 30 mijnutes I finally connected...bad part is not sure why. I did adjust setting on security on my computer...but nothing significant at least I thought.

Beds are high.

Stay was good - beds are very high. Husband was unable to get up onto bed without assistance. The staff did purchase a small step stool for our stay which helped. They informed us upon leaving that they had ordered medical type step stools for others who may have problems.

Can’t believe this is a “by Marriot”, old, dated, bad furniture, uncomfortable bedding, the shower was leaking and getting the whole bathroom wet, I could go on, but you can paint the picture.

It was a great stop as we waited for hospital admission to Millard Fillmore suburban close by. Perfect comfort and large screen tv with a couch. The cafe downstairs had great fresh food and friendly service … we didn’t need to go elsewhere and just relaxed. Will be back for sure!

Disappointing Stay – Poor Customer Service I booked this hotel mainly because it advertised a pool, but when I checked in, I was told it was closed. There was no prior notice, yet I was still charged the full rate. I asked the manager for some kind of compensation, but both he and the front desk staff were rude, dismissive, and completely unwilling to help. There was no empathy, no solution offered, and no respect for the customer. It's shocking that a hotel under the Marriott name has such unprofessional staff and no backup plan for situations like this. Terrible customer service – I absolutely do not recommend this hotel.
