I stay at this location frequently when I come home to visit. However, my recent four day stay was unacceptable. My sink wouldn't drain, the a/c wasn't working well. I asked to have my sheets changed after day three and they were never changed and my room didn't get fresh towels after requesting all the above with the front desk. My toilet lid was extremley loose. The front desk clerk (middle age female) was very nice and mentioned she would give me some Marriott rewards, although I didn't see them applied.

We booked the 2 room suite. It was the perfect size for our group of 5. The layout was spacious and modern. Will definitely stay here again. The only downside was the staff at the bistro was limited. So please be patient and kind to them. They are working hard to take care of everything.

Beautiful monern property that has some kinks to work out. Construction next door with jack hammering from 7am to 7pm. Blind cords wonky, door slams, loose fixtures in bathroom. Good nights sleep once settledvin, but too many quirks to justify the price.
