We stayed here because we like Courtyards and because it's close to March ARB. Compared to other Courtyards we've stayed at, this one was nice. Check in was easy and the majority of the staff was incredibly friendly. I had my 9 month old with me running around the lobby, stretching his legs after being in the car most of... More

Bathroom was also clean and stocked accordingly. Everything in the room was as expected of a Marriott franchise. The bed was comfortable with clean sheets. No... More

This was the first time I had stayed at a Marriott and I have to say I was very impressed. As a former front desk clerk at a Choice Hotel I was probably more picky than your normal guest. The staff was awesome...with this training we were working from 8am to 330 am the next day all weekend.The staff was... More

This is my first experience with this hotel. No complimentary breakfast, but they do have full service breakfast for $10+. Rate is higher than average, especially for the size of room and dining area. After switching from Residence Inn to this Courtyard, I am thankful that I do not claustrophobia for this place is way way too small. More

Hello JL Thank you for taking the time to write a review about our hotel. I understand that after coming from a Residence Inn to a Courtyard you would feel the room was small. The Residence Inn by Marriott is designed for long term living. The rooms are specifically designed to be larger so that it takes the place of... More

Stayed one night only, arriving late and leaving early. But this was one of the better Courtyards in a chain that's usually dependable, but sometimes leaves you hanging. Staff was very friendly and had a game with prizes for Marriott Rewards members. Nice touch. Never used the TV or Internet, but the bed was comfy and the room was nice... More

I have stayed here in the past. The beds are awesome! The hotel itself is ok. However, this time I stayed in room 202. It was the worst weekend of sleep I have ever had! We have a balcony facing the street (University) which has very loud traffic all night long. You also hear train whistles blowing long and hard... More
