The breakfast was very disappointing. There were limited options. They had packs of Quaker oatmeal. This was a first. Most hotels have the already prepared oatmeal with the fixings/toppings. They didn't even have that. There were also no variety of individual yogurts. They only offered one or two that you had to spoon out. No variety of fruits or cereal. Marriott, I have seen better!

Pros: Lovely hotel, clean facilities, and very friendly staff. Great pool. Cons: Parking costs $25, although there's an alternative lot just 3 meters away for $10. The breakfast is varied, but lacks cheese and cold cuts. One day, the cream cheese ran out and they said there was no more available. Room cleaning is done every other day, and when it was our turn, they only took out the trash—no vacuuming was done.

The rooms are big i was surprised to see that even have a kitchen and dishwasher. The only thing I didn't like was that both beds had dirty bed sheets. It was visible that they do not change beds sheets. So if you are allergic or a clean person like me bring your own bed sheets and pillow.

Not bad - comfortable

Overall it was a nice and comfortable place. Very close to everything. However breakfast buffet bar is slacking. I waited for pancakes/waffles for both days I was there. It was like no one was working or updating you. Overall the service was lacking but other things about the facility made it better like the bikes you can take out, or the kitchenette in the room.
