The staff is very friendly, but the rooms needs a lot of attention. The heaters are not that big enough to keep the room warm. We stayed there for 2 night cold even when the temperature was adjusted. During our stay nobody came to clean our room, good thing they have plenty of towels in their rooms.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was horrible. I read the reviews how the room were very clean...Not sure who the reviews came from, becausethat was not the case. Also, my allergies were horrible because of the allowance of pets in the hotel, which I didnt notice at the time of booking, but for it to affectme like that shows how unclean the rooms were. I was very disappointed by the uncleaness of the rooms.

The room was dirty took photos of the carpeting soiled and stained worn out furniture mold in the grout in the bathroom extremely disappointed that Marriott cannot keep up this property beyond that the hotel manager is obviously not doing the proper job and ensuring these rooms are clean. Staff was very friendly and nice.

Liked: Cleanliness
Needs updating as it looks like a nursing home turned hotel. There were holes in the shower wall and tape everywhere as though they may still be fixing things. If that is the case, it shouldn’t be renting the rooms.. but very Harlem vibe, ok for a 1 night stay only, which is what I needed it for

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff was very friendly and the vibe of the lobby was wonderful with the bar, pool table and live jazz music. The quality of the room was disappointing. It was very dusty on the wall, AC unit and on little things like the alarm clock next to the bed, the sink had a sewage smell coming out of it and we noticed a weird ring around the top of it, the shower wouldn’t drain properly and our first night there we noticed the carpet in the room was soaking wet on the opposite side of the shower wall by the bed my guess is due to a leak. We had to place a towel over it. Close to subway lines and plenty of places to eat. Overall, wouldn’t stay here again due to the quality of the room.
