The room was spacious and beautiful. We loved having a living space - mainly a nice size refrigerator. Nice to know I could've prepared food, if we wanted. Spacious bathroom, bed - lovely having nightstands for each side with THREE drawers. Enough space in closet and drawers, if needed. (We only stayed one night.) I especially appreciated the vanity area and having a full length mirror and two other mirrors, (vanity and bathroom). I told my husband I would stay here any other time we were in the area. GREAT breakfast!

I didn't like that the bathroom was only a 3/4 - no bathtub. The fact that the refrigerator "greeted" us, as we opened the door, but understand that was probably architecturally the best way to get the best use of space with providing a kitchen.

Staff and property were fantastic and the place felt brand new. The location is really great, convenient to the 101 and all East Side Freeways, too, right across the bridge (FYI - can be a $4-$7 toll to come back over the bridge!) Will stay again, I'm sure.

AC controls in the room were finicky to get right, but not noisy. Bathroom lighting could be brighter, too, but definitely NOT a deal breaker! Overall, 9.5/10!

The bathroom and the room was really clean, the towels were white! Love the kitchenette with stove, microwave, dishwasher, utensils, pots n pans! Quality furnishings. Location is close to stores. Good fr shopping. I'd recommend this hotel!

No pool so not suitable fr kids or families. More of an adult/businessmen hotel.

I like the location. I come here because it's quiet. I brought my dog to stay away from the fireworks in our neighborhood.

Pricing was a little higher this year. Breakfast is not too good. The sheets on the roll away bed were soiled.

We really loved it! The room was extremely clean. We were able to bring our dog. Paid an extra fee for him, but having an extremely clean room, made it worth it. the best part, though, was the bed was really comfortable! A nice room is great, but if you can’t sleep on the mattress, it doesn’t matter. The location is really convenient, too. Access to all freeways is easy no matter what direction you gotta go.

There was at least one room charge that somebody had managed to place on my room which took a while for them to figure out to delete the charge. Also there were several charges on my credit card which I have to wait to see whether they actually showed up or not on the final bill. I don't think they should. And if they do I'll be complaining to Marriott customer service about that issue.

Breakfast spread was great. Having to prep for our son’s wedding we were tired at night so it was a struggle to make the 9am cutoff. It would be great if daily b/f goes till 9:30. Nice location. I liked that we could walk or drive next door to the shopping center for immediate needs. I also liked the good sound insulation. We never heard any noise or plumbing sound outside our room.

This is new and very clean and comfortable. Nice cushy beds. Breakfast, parking included. Nice little kitchen.

It's a little pricey but with many things included not too bad for this area. Would have liked some healthy options for breakfast. Location is fine but can be noisy on freeway side.

Every day cleaning was not very good
