Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was handicap and shower had no curtain. The tile in bath was disgusting. I asked to switch room and the guy at the front desk was so unprofessional and passive aggressive. Almost to the point where I felt unsafe and considered leaving. He was more concerned reading his book than offering a solution. Complete psycho path and should never be allowed to represent the Marriott brand. I would never stay or recommend this place.
