The location is amazing but the rooms need upgrading. For example the first room we recurved the outlets didn’t work neither did the mini fridge. We were moved to another room but yet the mini fridge was still an issue. They didn’t cool our food and drinks. Also, there was barley and water coming out in the bathroom

The actual stay was okay. The check-in process was horrendous. I called twice the same week of my booking to make sure I didn't need to do any extra planning for arriving at or around midnight which I did. I was told by Floan that no I did not need to do anything when I called the first time. The second time I called the day of the booking on Friday and I was told again I don't need to do anything additional. I then arrived around midnight and was told that the hotel was overbooked and my room had been sold. Why had it been sold if I prepaid and I called twice to make sure my room would be available when I arrived. I was then given the option of a different room with the same bed with no view or balcony which is specifically the reason why I booked the hotel in the first place. Or a room with two queens and a balcony. This is my anniversary and it was ruined from the start! Water reservations for? What are prepaids for if it doesn't hold anything? My room should have been held for me like stated by staff. They then offered to count my parking which was already included in my booking. If it wasn't past midnight I would have found a different Hotel because the check-in service was more than unacceptable. When a person makes a reservation let alone prepays you should stand by that and hold the person's room for when they actually show up! So I was left with a view of the freeway instead of the city for my anniversary celebration. This has happened numerous times and no one's hav

Staff was great but the rooms are another story.
I was not expecting all the noise I heard from the streets. Was expecting double pane sliding doors I think it’s time to upgrade those not sure I would stay again at that location. Also having a late flight back home I wish I could have paid additional fee to check out at 3pm. Most place offer that but I did appreciate the 12:30 check out oh and the prices for the drinks and snacks where out of control ridiculous prices.

My stay at Marriott this past weekend unfortunately started off on a very negative note and never really improved.

The hotel charges $40 per day for parking, but fails to clearly disclose that the parking structure is extremely small and realistically only suitable for compact cars. Although there is a sign stating that the second level is for trucks or larger SUVs, that level was completely filled with compact vehicles. If you are driving a truck, I highly recommend finding street parking instead.

Unfortunately, we didn’t realize how inadequate the structure was until it was too late. While exiting, my husband’s truck was scratched due to how narrow the exit is, making it very difficult—if not impossible—to safely maneuver a larger vehicle out of the garage.

On top of the parking issues, our room was not cleaned at all throughout the entire weekend, which was extremely disappointing, especially given the expectations associated with staying at a Marriott.

To make matters worse, at the end of our stay I was still charged for parking, despite the fact that I did not park my car in the structure.

Overall, this stay fell far below expectations in terms of communication, service, and attention to guest experience.

Our room was not available when we checked in at 4pm as stated on the site. Front desk was not very helpful but manager walked up and offered comp parking. When I asked to be called when my room was ready I was not. I called to see if it was available because I didn’t want to drive back for no reason and I was placed on hold for a very long time with no answer which I hung up and drove to the hotel. I had dinner reservations I was late to because I didn’t get ready in time due to late check in.

The hotel is beautiful and the views were incredible, however the room was not cleaned thoroughly. The mirror in the bathroom had spots, the back of the door was really dirty, the floor was not cleaned properly. There was sticky stuff on the leather chair, the sliding glass door was not cleaned and the tracking really needs to be cleaned.
Being it was our Anniversary present to ourselves, I was very upset. I normally do not like to give a bad review but this could have been a much more pleasurable say had it been a clean room.
I would have complained but we were so tired and didn’t want to repack after driving from Az.

The room was nice. I didnt see anything in the room and wasnt told at checkin no housekeeping. I called to call for towels. When I came back to the room after being gone the room had not been cleaned. Just tell the guest if you dont have housekeeping unless requested. At check in I do not think the check in person was courteous. I was rattled by the parking garage as I was almost stuck. You should definitely tell people your parking garage is meant for compact cars. The small SUV in front of me had the worst time too. We both left your garage after about 30 min of trying to park and basically get out. I was able to find parking in the lot across the street. ot what I wanted, outside parking and in rain, the lot was flooded in spots. When I told the check in person about the garage she looked at me and said nothing. then responded yep its like that. I told her if it wasnt late and I was not going to be charged I would look for a room elsewhere. Not to mention standing outside a locked door and ringing to get in no one helping. A guest coming in opened for me. She told me the door doesnt lock until 9 but...somoene walked up and said its locking and they are looking at it. This stay was ot what I expected from Marriott. I love Marriots. It was a disappointment only in regards to hotel and parking. Loved the location and felt it was safe. Thankfully there was that.

About the worst experience I have every had - Parking lot very poorly designed making it hard to navigate the way too narrow ramps without damaging car, and signs regarding availability of parking were not conveniently placed and clear - the hundreds of damage marks showed that this problem was not limited to just a few people; additionally, on-site restaurant menu options were not varied enough nor appealing

The bar’s food selection was limited, but the staff member went out of her way to help us find something we could enjoy, which made a big difference after a long day.
While the surrounding street may not appeal to everyone, the experience inside the hotel was positive.

I was really disappointed with my check-in experience. I specifically paid extra in advance for a king bed, as I was staying with my partner and that was important to us. When we arrived, the front desk informed us that the only remaining king room had plumbing issues and we were being given two queens instead. While I understand that issues can happen, what was frustrating was that no alternative solution or accommodation was offered—no adjustment, no compensation, and no acknowledgment that we paid more for a room type we didn’t receive. We were left with no choice after a long day of travel. The stay itself was fine, but the lack of effort or customer service during check-in really impacted our experience.

So many problems with this place I don’t know where to start.

Currently being handed over from Hilton (as I was told) so the hotel is in a state of renovation which could be good but unfortunately not.

- first room facing the highway was so loud - note I was on the top floor - I had to be moved
- second room facing the road a quieter but still needed earplugs to sleep
- tv in room didn’t work
- elevator stopped working during my stay - note I was on the top floor
- customer service very mixed at reception

Obvious a hotel in transition but the basics weren’t there to justify a good review
