Wouldn't recommend

Unfortunately this wasnt a good stay with Marriott. Started off with hard to find parking. Then Valet was $70 to park when I spent $405 for a night for a small hotel where the fold out bed was broken with no blankets. Once requested the sheets were dirty. The water pressure was awful in my room to the point we couldn't even take showers. Then I text Valet for my car and it states there to busy so they can't take the text function. However there wasn't anyone down in Valet waiting nor was there 20 minutes prior. As I was down there for breakfast. Overall not a good experience.

Decent hotel, but for the price I paid I expected a little more. Bed was lumpy and uneven, pool and spa area was average, my rooms window was directly facing another rooms window so I had to keep the curtains closed or risk someone watching us. Parking is essentially valet only.

Nice, but would look elsewhere next time.

Standard as far as hotel goes. Pro - location close to all. Con - water pressure is dismal. Ask for a room not facing the train. You can hear it at night. Coffee shop only open mornings and evenings. You out if you need afternoon snack. Wall and ceilings ate thin. You can hear your neighbors easily even if they aren’t making much noise.

First night and second day ruined by excessive noise. Asked to move rooms only to be sent to the 2nd floor on the main street which was extremely noisy. Poor customer service by Noel and would never recommend this hotel or stay again

Nice and convenient

Modern, spacious room with a decent shower and comfortable beds. I appreciated that the rooms had hard flooring instead of carpet. Valet parking sounds expensive at $55 a night but city parking was $40 and nearly two blocks away, so it might be worth the convenience to you. Close to the Pier and mall as well as a Trader Joe’s just across the street. My only gripe was the price.
