The outside can be more cleaned and the old trash cars from the back parking lot can be removed from parking lot, those old trash cars makes it look dirty and feels unsafe area. The hotel itself looks like is in the middle of no where. The front of the hotel is not presentable. Shower did not had body wash. The AC hardly worked. Surprised cause usually Marriott’s are not like that.

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.
