We stayed here for an athletic competition. This was the host hotel. The Marriott name usually means high end, high quality. For the most part, it was. The good first. Very clean room, comfortable beds, great amenities. Loved the corner room: never heard a word or motion in the hall or otherwise. The breakfast was very good; attentive staff. The pasta dinner for the group was wonderful; well done, tasty, well-priced, and bountiful. The location was good, nice surroundings.
The 'bad'. The heater in our room was incredibly loud. At first I woke up thinking there was a large delivery truck outside our window...then I realized we were on the 5th floor. It was the heater. It was unbelieveably loud......with a wide variety of noises. The shower was awful. It went from scalding to cold in moments (and I just read that someone else had this problem too at this hotel).
I did mention these items to the front desk; he was very kind and wrote it all down. We even got a phone call saying they had replaced a burnt out overhead bulb, and that the shower checked out okay. He said the heater can be like that at first. He did give us a card allowing us a choice of complimentary items.
The heater was even worse the next night (a colder night). I wound up shutting it off "economy" and we froze. I got up 1/2 hour earlier and turned it on (LOUD). Lousy night sleep. The shower was no better the next day.
Overall, I enjoyed the location, the staff, the hotel itself. I just cannot believe how bad the heater and the shower problem is.....these things need to be looked at!
