We arrived late on a Friday evening but called mid-afternoon to let the hotel know and confirmed our king room reservation. The lady on phone said they would hold the room. We made this reservation 5 months ago. We arrived at the hotel at the time we said we would. The woman working the desk was not friendly. I asked if we had a king she said yes. However when we got to our room it was not a king. We called the desk & they said they did not have any available. Then why not tell me that upfront when we checked in or when we called hours earlier. Very thin walls made the hallway noise & arguing couple in the next room seem like they were in our room. Floors were not swept well - trash in corners of room Bathroom door did not stay closed Bed very soft and sounded like it would break whenever one of us rolled over Not a hotel up to Marriott standards.

Dear JENNIFER, We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. My heartfelt apologies for disappointing you due to the room type you were assigned. Our inventory changes by the minute and it is never our intention to assign a guest a room that isn't what they expected. We strive to provide every guest with a comfortable stay and we clearly missed the mark. Thank you for your honest feedback which we will use to foster improvement; for that reason, we hope to see you again on a return trip. Sincerely, Stephen Barr General Manager

Other than the lobby, the hotel feels very dated. The hallways were humid and hot. The air conditioner in our room made the entire room feel damp.
