Avoid

Although location was a plus point, they have a cleaning self service (tumble dryer and washing machine) which is helpful, the hotel staff manners are non-existent, and in some instances, became very aggressive and inappropriate. I would avoid if you have options.

Far from the Marriott standard

Far from the Marriott standard. The hotel is very outdated, the hallways and staircases were not clean. The scramble for a table and food in the morning due to lack of tables and layout of the food was nothing short of uncivilised. The only real upside of this hotel is the staff who were all very friendly and helpful.

Avoid! The doors between rooms (which most rooms have) are not soundproofed so you can hear everything going on next door as if they were in your room (ordinary conversations, kids screaming, ‘intimate moments’ etc). I booked for 3 nights but had to leave after 1. Awful!

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. At first glance, the room appeared clean and well-maintained. However, while resting on the bed, I pulled back the blanket and was horrified to find something resembling a bandage or small pad with what looked like blood stuck to the edge of the blanket. It was absolutely revolting and completely ruined my stay. The issues didn’t end there. The shower had mold on the sealant and a clump of hair in the middle of the shower floor. On top of that, someone had left rubbish in the ice machine dispenser, and the air filter in the ice dispenser was completely clogged with dust. Adding to the discomfort, there was a strong, lingering chemical stench on the second floor. While the front desk staff promptly moved us to a new room, which was problem-free, I couldn’t relax or sleep easily, as the image of the bandage kept coming back to me. The lobby itself didn’t help matters either—it felt more like a hospital than a supposedly 4-star hotel. Overall, this experience left a lot to be desired and fell far below the standards I expected.

Very nice. If you are a Marriott member, they let you into your room early. That helped me because I was feeling sick when I arrived.

We initially got a noisy room on the 7th floor and asked to change. We got an upgrade to a 1 bedroom suite which was on the 3rd floor and was very nice.
