They wouldn’t allow a late check out. Pathetic. How would they be able to clean all the rooms simultaneously anyway? I’ve never had Marriott not allow this before.

Check in was easy and the lady was super friendly. Our first room the ac wasn’t working , dirty band aid on floor and just not clean. They changed our room. Second room felt better and was tidier. The pool looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in awhile.
