Did not like the fact there were no rooms that were not pet friendly. Asked for non smoking and no pet due to allergies. Regret to say we will not be staying in this or any other hotel that does not offer rooms where there have been no pets. Dogs are treated like people and are allowed to sleep on beds. This is ok in your personal home, but not when staying in a high end hotel without the option of a no pet room Pets are wonderful, but there needs to be rooms without pets ever being in the room.

I recvd an email that day of my stay advising i had been moved due to overbooking. I read it shorlty before i began my drive. I had been moved to the neighnoring Sheraton hotel. I didnt have any choice this late in to the trip. My family was all at the Courtyard where i booked. I was at the Sheraton which is where i was unilaterally moved to via email. Ive stayed at the Sheraton before and quite frankly do not wish to return there. Food quality is poor a d the service even poorer. I waited 90 minutes for my dinner which was not at all done as requested. Short story. If i wanted the Sheraton i would have booked it. I wanted the Courtyard. Seems as thougg they didnt even inform Expedia they bumped me since ive rexcd several requests for a review of the Courtyard.

Check in was good , pic on website our enhanced from what it really looks , toilet was supper low to the ground not friendly if u have a medical probs mine was nerve issues that made it hard , the beds were not comfortable they were doable for one night . and the window on the outside was so dirty with cob webs and spider handing out to see the view to the greatest extent . Only got one bucket of ice when I went back to the ice machine it was not working . Not the kinda of stuff I'd expect from a Marriott hotel. Staff were friendly and the outdoor grounds of the hotel our amazing . And the P6 Hotel on the third floor out from the hotel and the parking garage is amazing food

I booked this hotel room almost a month ago. When I checked in, they told me that the reservation only went through today. They did not have a room available at the location I booked, and sent me to another 20 minutes away. I chose that location specifically because it was close to where I needed to be. I am EXTREMELY disappointed as I have friends visiting from out of state. I will NOT book through Expedia again.

Ouch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The room was 205, a beautiful view of the bay, when I checked in it was everything I expected till later on in the evening. My room was next to the entrance door to the main hall that the 200 rooms are on. The door was a constant source of aggravation due to it slamming shut the esclators were in that little hallway next to the door. Then there were the ac units right outside of my window that made the noise of a tractor and trailer all day and night. I wasn't feeling the best to begin with but this situation made my situation even worse. I went to use my military discount at checkout and was told that I couldn't because the hotel was to utilized and that I used a booking agency rather than call you direct Surely you can do better than this, you are a Marriot. I'm aware that there are cost involvd in running a Marriott, but you don't have to drain my pockets in the process. This one hurt !!!!!!!!!!
