An odd little hotel
I stayed here because the manager of a project I was working on suggested it. I figured a Marriott property would be at least predictable. It was not. The first challenge was parking, There is not really any. I used valet rather than hunt down a public ramp to leave my car in. The hotel is a former shoe factory apparently - at least that is what the sign in the lobby said while attempting to explain why you needed to climb a flight of stairs to read the elevator. (There is apparently an accessibility elevator somewhere to allow them to be ADA compliant). Upon leaving the elevator on the 5th floor, there was a smell that I could not quite place. (Later it came to me - moth balls). Then the room layout - just odd. The beds are on one level and you take two more steps up to get to the desk. The windows are half-height - reminiscent of attic rooms in an old house. The TV is bolted to a low dresser on the side of the room - not aligned with the beds, so you have to turn a bit to watch TV. The AC unit in the room was sufficient to cool the 90+ degree weather if left on high 24/7. The downside is that the sound on the TV has to be cranked up to hear it over the AC noise. The bathroom is small enough that they have door stops installed in the floor to keep it from hitting the tub. Stepping on that while leaving the shower is not a pleasant morning event. The towels & linens are not up to Marriott standard. (Thin non-absorbent towels reminiscent of a red roof inn are not what I expect). In short, the best thing I can say about this hotel was the staff was friendly and it was convenient to the client site.
