For starters, the building and the room were great! The room was like a miniature apartment which gives the home away from home feel. There was a fold out couch, two TVs, and two tables. The kitchen had a full sized fridge, microwave, stovetop, AND a dishwasher. Everything about the room was clean and comfortable. A+ The continental breakfast had... More

This is an ideal place to stay while doing business in the Capitol and it is central to a lot of things in Tallahassee. Construction on Gaines Street has just finished up and it offers a terrific walking venue right next to the hotel. FSU and FAMU are nearby if you need to access them and while the hotel has... More

Stayed here for the FSU spring game. Great value, even on a busy wknd. The rooms were huge and the kitchen was nice even though we didn't use it. Breakfast in the morning was good and I liked the game room they have. Will definetly be back during the upcoming football season.

This hotel provided our family with great service and a clean, orderly and pleasant hotel room. They are located near the FSU campus which was a bonus for us. We had a room with a kitchenette, stove (no oven) and microwave which allowed us to cook/heat up an Easter meal for 5 students. This hotel does provide a warm continental... More

Mark C, We were very pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay. Many FSU parents call us their home a way from home. It is always a nice treat to provide a home cooked meal for your starving students! We look forward to seeing you often over the next several years. Warmest Regards, Keith Hoogerheyde General Manager More

This is a great hotel to stay at near FAMU, FSU, or the Capitol area. You've got free breakfast, wifi, and parking. And even light dinner events at the hotel on M-Th nights. As with most places in the Marriott chain it is new, clean, and comfortable. There was some construction on Gaines so the neighborhood doesnt look the best,... More

You can't beat this hotel for the price. First, it's in a great location (better when the Gaines St contruction is complete). Next, each day there's a wonderful hot breakfast provided as well as an evening social that easily could count as dinner. The room has a kitchen which makes snacking convenient. The exercise room and pool area are decent.... More

Our room was a 2 bedroom suite that was very spacious and had a great kitchen. Bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice and clean however, the living area furniture was very dated and worn.

Stayed for one night while visiting FSU. Very close to the university. Big comfortable room with an outstandingly comfortable bed. Our daughter was happy sleeping in the big fold out in the living room. Really clean and well appointed in all ways. This is a fine place to stay.
