As a Marriot member I was so disappointed with my stay. I chose to book despite reading negative reviews we enjoy historic buildings. While the lobby is lovely, the historic details are worth exploring, and our rooms were actually actually quite sizable, our complaints include the absolute poor, downright rude front desk staff, and the cleanliness-our room had urine in the toilet when we arrived and despite reporting this is was never cleaned. The whole experience makes me question my loyalty programming

The overall property and location was great! The staff were friendly! I did ask for our room to be cleaned, but it wasn't.. that's not a big deal. I was able to get wash clothes and towels brought to the room. The toilet is in an unusual place. It's like in front of a wall. You have to almost climb over to sit straight on the toilet. My husband is tall so this was uncomfortable for him. The bathroom was clean though.

the room is very small; noisy - you hear the next door people; Property staff did not know how to lower darkening blinds, we figured it out ourselves; the blinds were completely lifted, and you could not reach those to be pulled down, without standing on a chair The room is otherwise clean and bed is comfortable

I don’t feel as though this property is worth the money. Our stay was fine but the room looked like they just went in a put everything from the last guest back in its place. My pillows were dirty and the sheets were stained. The bathroom was okay but could have been better. The customer service was good though. I was happy I didn’t have to stay more than one night. I feel like you’re literally just paying for the nice lobby and bar at the entrance.
