We really enjoyed having the big tub in the main room, which may seem oddly placed, but we really liked it. :) It was clean, and good value for the money, located well, and the staff was friendly.

Kudos to Jessica Slater, General Manager. If leadership is 25% example, then all of the employees at that Marriott demonstrate superior customer service - much like the Ritz Carlton experience.

I arrived around 7:00 PM on a rainy night and got put in a room across from the elevators and ice machine. Fortunately I didn't hear anything from the hallway all night. I could hear some street noise from W. Hampden Ave. when the HVAC cycled off, but nothing loud enough to keep me awake. The rooms are large, with a king sized bed, cheap looking sofa, desk and chair, and dresser. Generally the furnishings are pretty average... probably what you'd expect from a hotel in this price range.

There was no hot water in the morning... nothing like a cold shower when it's snowing outside! I was especially annoyed that no one was answering the phone at the front desk, and I assume that's because the problem was hotel-wide. One of my fellow travelers was told the boiler blew up; apparently it put itself back together, because shortly before I left the hot water was restored. No body lotion in the bathrooms (or at least not in mine).

As part of my room rate, I got a ticket for a complementary breakfast. I doubt I'll use it, but the description in the hotel info guide sounds really good - lots of hot foods and made to order omelets and eggs. There's no restaurant in the hotel, so be prepared to go out for dinner or have it delivered to your room. Fortunately there are quite a few places nearby.

One saving grace to this hotel was it's proximity to where I was working - about two blocks. I will probably look for a different hotel for my next trip, but so far none of the hotels I've tried in this area are very exciting.

We stayed her for 5 nights in September. We actually got this hotel from Priceline. I was a little bit leary since I have never booked thru them before. As soon as we walked into the hotel lobby all that changed. We were greeted by 2 of the hotel associates at the desk and they were very social and accomadating. The hotel rooms were spotless and the location was great for what we had planned. We will defintely choose this location again when we are back in town.
