Understaffed
This is a nice hotel, but it was very understaffed. The bistro/ bar was closed the first night because an employee didn’t show up for work; which was a major inconvenience with 4 children to feed.

My Birthday was that Saturday!!!
The stay was great at the Hotel and good location. Except the rug in our room had a stain that was noticeable and the Iron was missing. I did contact room service people and went downstairs to let front desk know about the iron and the stain in the rug. We did get and iron and no service for that stain in the rug. Other than that everything was good.

Valet is a nightmare. Bistro is only open when the servers feel like working. I’ve stayed at a lot of Marriott’s but this is the worst one by far.
