The A/C was not functioning correctly and they even gave us another room to try that also had a poor functioning A/C. We decided to muscle through but got a terrible night sleep, which was the main reason we chose the hotel, we needed a location close to our conference for a good night sleep.

Construction misery

We have stayed here before but this time they were under construction/renovation--something not shared when we booked. We were told 8-5 construction but on the first night, they were directly overhead drilling at 6pm. It was unlivable. They should have never put us in a room directly below that. It woke me up the next morning and continued for 2 days of our 5 day stay. The other 3 days without overhead construction were fine. I would seriously consider not staying here again, even though it was very convenient to our family.

Room

Did not get the room type I paid for. I paid for a queen bed and a pull out bed. All I got was the queen so basically people had to sleep on the floor. Hotel say they were book out andI can't get the room with the right amont of bed so I got a handicap room.

The lobby and commom area have the nice contemporary design, but the room was rather dated (and small) No one was at the front desk when we arrived at around 7pm. There was no bell/phone to ring/call. Luckily, we waited for about 5-10mins for a staff to acknowledge us and looked for the front desk for us (which took and other 5-10mins). Check-in process was easy. It was a decent hotel for a one night stay but then later on in the evening it got noisy for a while. A bit disappointing as Marriott brands are usually better than this.
