Just ok.
This hotel was just ok. Pretty tired and in need of a facelift. Service not great. Breakfast very mediocre. Little things like no stand for the suitcases in the room. Guy at desk didn't know what one was. I can't remember a hotel that didn't have them and we travel a lot. Expected more from Marriott.

Too pricey for what’s offered
There was no water pressure and the water was not hot . The rooms appeared clean but there was a strong musty smell . The price of the rooms for those types of issues was disappointing.

Great stay with a spacious room
Loved the room and space. I didn’t feel like we were tripping over each other. The price was right and convenient to where we needed to be.

I really enjoyed my stay. The staff was friendly the rules clean. I enjoy using the real life kitchen that they have in the room along with the appliances within the room. Plus, I also would like that you can get additional appliances if the ones that were in the room were enough. I will definitely come back here again in the near future because I loved the quality of service in the quantity within the room. Thank you for being such a great host during my time away from home.

We were in town for an Alabama football game so it was pretty busy at the hotel.
The staff was very friendly and helpful when we asked questions about getting to the game and where to find merchandise. They even gave us pom poms. Some of the best and friendliest staff I have ever encountered.
