The toilet was odd. I kept having to adjust the lever for it to flush. Lights next to bed do not work. No microwave in the room was inconvenient. Marriott usually leaves a plastic bag for wet clothes- not this time. Staff was wonderful and food was amazing. Beds so comfy! I’m still bummed I have to pay for parking but this hotel truly is beautiful and the gym is perfect! Please do add a hot tub!

The rooms are nice and up to date with current architecture. A property that finally got rid of carpet in the rooms. Beds are a little rough on the back. Staff is very nice and helpful, however, they are way overworked and spread thin. That’s a shame as this property has great potential to be spectacular. No hot tub. Small pool. But pool is heated. The biggest disappointment was the breakfast. $17/adult and $8/child and wasn’t even acceptable for a free continental breakfast. My family paid and, (here’s the part the boiled my blood even further than it was already from the pathetic spread) others did NOT pay as there’s no one at the door monitoring anything. People just come in and got stuff and went back to their room and never paid. I know because I heard some in there talking about it that they didn’t pay when someone else who did pay said they paid. The $20/night parking fee is ridiculous as well. $28/night for valet. All in all, when I come back to the area, I will look at others rather than AC Hotel.

Ask what you are being charged for

This as probably the most comfortable and quitest hotel we have ever stayed at. The only issue we had is that they charged us for the room and didnt tell us what we were paying for. We had already paid on hotels.com, so now we have to wait 3 days to get reimbursed for something we should have never been charged for.

Valet was missing his frontal lobe and couldn't explain the process. Absolutely ridiculous, expensive and frivolous process of parking with a 3rd party app. Front desk lady was rude, condescending, wouldn't make eye contact and didn't explain the energy efficient card to turn the lights on and made the check in process 15 minutes longer because she couldn't find my Marriot Bonvoy # and just looked away like "well....sorry, you're not in the system" (odd considering I paid a portion of my room with points.. No closet, no microwave, no bags in the trash cans, tiny frig, bare minimum for towels, and overpriced breakfast. At least the pool was operative
