The hotel is completely remodeled and very nice. Had awesome pillows. Breakfast in the morning was good and had a nice area to eat. The location is awesome in regards to old town. It is literally on the corner and you just walk a block or so and you are there. More

We stayed here for 2 night in February so we could go to Sea World. The staff was attentive to our needs and the rooms were clean and well maintained. The beds were so comfortable I didn't want to get out of it in the morning! Every morning breakfast is served and you can make your own waffles-yummy. They also... More

We stayed here for 6 nights in December, whilst the renovations were still in progress and despite major work being done to the lobby and corridors around us, our room was fantastic - huge, comfortable bed, spacious room with balcony overlooking the courtyard, widescreen TV and free wifi in the rooms. The location, just a short, pleasant walk from the... More

Ok, I hate to bash anyone, But I gave the Marriott time to respond. I would NEVER stay at this hotel again; period. They claim it is a new hotel; yes it is new to the Marriott, but far from New. I stayed for 2 nights and that was 2 nights too long. The first room had an awful smell... More

This states to be a new hotel in Marriott website. This looks like remodel from previous business. So, you would have the window but can't go out to patio. They have new equipment and clean facilities everywhere. However, The front desk is a little bit too slow. Other than that, everything is good in this hotel. New bed sheet, new... More

Great spot. Thought I was staying at a Holiday Inn Express but apparently they changed the name. The real treat is how they changed the hotel! Wow! Great looking hotel rooms, Great free breakfast! Finally the Wi-Fi really works all over the place! Worth the extra money to stay in a nice place. More

We stayed for one night in May 2011 when the hotel was still a Holiday Inn Express. Since it sounds like there have been a lot of changes since then, I'm only going to comment on the location. We chose to stay in Old Town on the tail of a trip to Palm Springs. We wanted to see a different... More

This hotel is now formally a Fairfield Inn and Suites, one of the Marriott brands. I have been an occasional business customer over the years and wouldn't hesitate to be a repeat customer. Yes, renovation continues, but what the critics don't mention is how much improvement in the property can be bought with 4.5 million dollars. The makeover is impressive,... More
