Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently: "Wonderful Stay! Great Location!"
Overall score5.0/ 5
The process from check-in through checkout was very smooth and Deia at the front desk was very welcoming and provided excellent customer service! The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Not to mention, the location is convenient to restaurants, CVS, the Bay/Little Italy, etc. and public transportation. Overall, I am very satisfied that I stayed at Marriott for the weekend and hope to be back. Thank you!
