“Lobby Nice, Rooms Not so Much”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

The lobby area has a very nice modern theme to it, and the staff are very pleasant. However, the rooms are tiny (beds face the window rather than the TV) with paper thin walls and the rest of the hotel just feels awfully outdated. The hallways have wallpaper and carpeting that look like they're from the 80s, and the ugly beige bathroom tiles have a similar look. They really need to modernize these features of the hotel (to match the lobby). Oddly, there seems to be no vending machines anywhere in the hotel, despite the "vending" signs on each floor. They only have ice machines. Finally and while we didn't use it, the pool area looked junkier than other Courtyards we've stayed at. I'm a bit surprised how many glowing reviews this place got. I love Courtyards, but this one just doesn't measure up to the typical Marriott standards, in my opinion.

Thank you for taking the time to share your comments regarding our hotel in Poughkeepsie. We sincerely appreciate guest feedback as it helps us to improve our product and services. We are pleased to advise you that we are in the process of renovating our guest rooms. This will provide our guests with a completely updated facility by spring 2013. Having completed the lobby last year, adding the Bistro for breakfast, dinner, evening bar service and Starbucks has added convenience and a sophisticated element to our lobby and public space. Our 24 Hour market with its fresh food and large selection of snack and drinks has replaced vending machines. We do hope that you will consider stopping in to see all of the changes on your next trip to the Hudson Valley.

“Solid Choice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 25, 2012 via mobile

spent a weekend night just before Christmas, and would definately recommend to others. The hotel is clean and spiffy, the staff and management attentive and friendly. A solid choice if youre in the area.

“Hotel is Welcoming and Service Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 23, 2012

It has to take something either very special or horrible to cause me to take the time to review a property, place or product. I am taking the time to write about one of the service people, Salim Akkawi who works in the restaurant area of the hotel. Although having slept well in the hotel, I awoke not in the best of moods, having had a quite alot on my miind. I was not rude but I certainly was not all that pleasant when finding out how breakfast worked here; it not the usual buffet style but you have to order everything all at once and I had not even had my coffee. Mr. Akkawi was very polite and quite frankly, very kind at seeing my mood. He left my tab open so that I could have coffee first and "wake up" and then proceed to order my breakfast. He always had a smile and kept repeating that "nothing was a problem" and that he "would take care of everything". His attitude was genuine which is rare and although I was a stranger he really seemed to want myself and my family to be very comfortable. He is an asset to this hotel and I did thank him personally and apologize for my mood. His response was that service is his business and he just wants everyone to feel comfortable and good. He wished me a happy holiday and his warmth was truly a gift. As for the rest of the hotel, the lobby is beautiful and the fireplace is very welcoming. The rooms are big and the beds are comfortable. My only complaint is that the room itself could have been cleaner. I would not dare to sit in the bathtub after finding a few hairs that did not belong to any member of my family. I did however take a shower and that was fine. Overall it is a place that I would recommend for the weary traveller.

“Far from the road well traveled.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

Didn't think the twelve miles or so from I-84 was a very big deal. Until we hit the traffic! It was stop and go for a solid twelve miles, which took at least 45 minutes. But if your interested in saving a few bucks, it might be worth the aggravation. It looked like the renovations definitely stopped at the lobby. But the rooms were clean. Except for the bad smell from the heating unit. Front desk service was pleasant though which is always nice.

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review of our hotel. We appreciate the extra effort that guests take to share their experiences. As you noted, we did complete a full renovation of our lobby and public spaces last year. This included the addition of our Bistro with fresh choices for breakfast, dinner and drinks. We have plans in place to complete our guest room renovations in early 2013. We do hope that you will consider visiting us again soon.

“Home away from home, convenient, comfortable, decent price.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 11, 2012

I had to stay here while waiting on the movers to arrive with my belongings. Location is on the "main drag" and was convenient to my new residence. Front desk staff friendly & knowledgable. Lobby area features a nice bistro where you can order from a limited menu food & drinks. Rooms were comfortable, wi-fi worked well. Bath area a bit small but adequate. I didn't take advantage of it but the hotel features an indoor pool & jacuzzi. Some rooms feature a fridge, be sure to ask. Overall a comfortable place to stay!
