The room was clean, staff was extremely friendly. They had two different times to come to our rooms to drop off items that we needed. The front desk was super helpful. Only issue we didn't have housekeeping, clean the room, our choice, we did run out of toilet paper and it took a while to get a new role because housekeeping is not on site overnight. They just need to keep some in the office. Other than that all good.

It was ok. The rooms were a bit dated and could use a refresh. Our chairs and tears. Bed was slanted. The pull out couch was pretty rough. You could feel the springs through the mattress on the couch. All in all, I've stayed in worse but it wasn't great, which is surprising for a Marriott.

Well-appointed, Family-friendly Hotel

I've stayed here multiple times now with family. My teens love coming to this hotel! Clean, comfortable, spacious rooms. Front desk staff are all friendly and helpful. The breakfast area is clean & pleasant, with friendly, attentive serving staff and a decent variety of items on offer. Great location within easy walking distance to the Metro, restaurants & grocery store. Plenty of parking in the garage - not so with other comparable hotels in the area. Already looking forward to my next visit!

My family stayed for a week. The staff and customer service were excellent. Literally, some of the best customer service I’ve experienced in a hotel stay. The hotel room we had an electrical issue which prevented us from using the outlets to charge our phones unless the light was on. Now keep in mind, our room also had master electrical switches, which is weird for a hotel room. Nonetheless, the pool was great. It was cold, but once you got used to it, it was no big deal. They have a lifeguard on site, which is cool I suppose. There’s also a splash pad across the street, which my kids loved. There’s a playground also, and lots of different eating options within walking distance. The breakfast was alright. It wasn’t anything to brag about, but it fed the family. The WiFi works well, and we didn’t pay for the up charge.
