Room is clean but everything is dated. Old AC unit that they had to look at during out stay, toilet lid and seat stick to each other, wall panel/covering was flapping, and when we notified front desk multiple times, they finally had someone looked at it and "fixed" it with 3 blue painters tape to stop it from flapping around. Parking is $18 per night despite it being an open lot around the hotel anyways. Breakfast is additional charge, they have starbucks located in the lobby. The lobby is also dated, along with their elevators. This is a basic hotel, sad to be called a Marriot. Best Western would have been a more solid choice, plus they give complimentary breakfast.
