I enjoyed my stay, however there is no microwave in the rooms. There is a community microwave in the lobby which is awkward and risky due to Covid. I had to have my food delivered to the lobby, since it cannot be delivered to the rooms directly. I don’t like the set up where you can only go to the room if you pass the front desk. There’s no privacy at all. The hotel was fine. I only wished the shower didn’t leak into the bathroom food causing me to have to use my only towel to clean it.

Unfortunately, Marriott does not permit the brand to have a microwave in the lobby. so I had to hide it. Not sure why the delivery services will not deliver to the room but, that is not our policy.
