Check in was great. The person who was working around 1130 on Thursday evening was the best (unfortunately I didn’t catch her name.) During the day, no one would answer the phone and I would have to call multiple times. Tried charging my card numerous times for a service animal. Lady at the desk in the afternoons (Gina I believe) needs better manners and customer service. Always sounds like guests are inconveniencing her. Pool and hot tub were nice. Conveniently located. Very quiet and room was nice. Will be reaching out to Marriott to express concern over the service animal policy per ADA as my daughter has Autism and felt they were making it difficult. Otherwise everything else was great!

Great place to stay before cruise. $15 parking not too bad. Excellent breakfast, so many options! The front desk clerk was personable and she helped us with all our questions. Bed was comfortable. Shower pressure excellent. We upgraded the internet to high speed for a zoom show i host. Internet was stable and great! No issues at all! Will be bacl again before our next cruise! The only negative was the smell of bug spray in the room. You could smell it in the kitchen but not where the bed was. There was not a bedbug encasement on the mattress which i think is much needed considering that epidemic. I insoected the mattress and all was clear so i felt ok to sleep there. It should be added. Everything in consideration we had a great experience.

I liked the suite, but the wall paper was peeling and the carpet was stapled together. The bed was comfortable. The curtains were hanged wrinkled and remained wrinkled. With just a little TLC, they could fix some small things.
