We went to Orange Beach for a wedding last weekend. My wife and I were traveling with our 7 yo son. Being familiar with the area, we knew we would not be on the beach, but it is a very convenient location. There are two shopping centers, two very good restaurants (with kid's menus), a pharmacy, and a walkway to... More

Following some negative comments, I was rather hesitant to stay at this particular property. We are devoted Marriott customers and have never had any problems with any of their hotels, in any of the various states we have visited. That said, I do my homework and make a phone call or two, when the situation is warranted. Such was the... More

I stayed here in the winter with a girlfriend and loved it. It is brand new, very clean, and a nice big room. The staff was very friendly, the free computer came in handy and the breakfast was noraml Marriott. It was clean and quiet and that is very important to me. The con is it is not on the... More

They have nice rooms, with a fairly modern look and seem to stay busy with groups. They do need to keep up a little better with maintenance as it... More

My room stinks, hotel can't do anything about it. The room with a king size bed feels more like a closet than a room - this is not even a Motel 6 quality - Highly Don't Recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never stay at this hotel again! They NEVER cleaned our room the whole time we were there. We checked in on a Friday and left on a Sunday. When I arrived home the next day I noticed bites all over my legs. I didn't think much of it because they looked like mosquito bites. The itching got worse... More
