The hotels.com booking was not registered when I arrived at the hotel, so I had to wait ~30 minutes before I could check in. The attendant had to manually put the booking together. The hotel was under construction in parts and in the hallway where my room was located, so that was a nuisance. I had to park a car, which was expensive for the location and wasn't well advertised. Bartender was great.

Didn't like the $5 water, this level of hotel should provide a couple bottles a day during a stay. Also, should have some snacks available for purchase in the lobby.

The 90s called and asked for this hotel Back! Poorly maintained and obsolete rooms, especially baths. Dark hallways and broken AC in the common area. Marriot needs to do a major upgrade or let this one go.

Second Stop, First-Class Service

This was the second stop on my itinerary, and after a truly awful experience at the previous hotel, checking in to the Marriott Durham City Center was a breath of fresh air. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. A special thank you to the evening front desk staff he was incredibly kind, efficient, and professional. After a stressful start to my trip, his friendly demeanor and quick check-in process immediately put me at ease. It made a huge difference and set the tone for the rest of my stay. I truly appreciate how he helped turn things around and made this part of the trip completely stress-free. The entire staff throughout the hotel was friendly and attentive. The amenities were excellent. I especially enjoyed having a Starbucks on-site for a convenient morning coffee. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, my experience here was top-notch. Thank you again to the team, especially the evening front desk associate, for your kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend this hotel and will absolutely stay again when I’m in the area.
