I’d Stay Again

The property was very, very nice, clean and inviting. The staff was nice and definitely provided great customer service. My only caution is they had a horrible time checking me in because I prepaid for my stay via Hotels.com. They actually charges me again ( more) for the stay and I had to make multiple trips to the front desk and have the General Manager intervene to resolve the issue. I loved the hotel and would stay again but I think I would book directly with Marriott.
