For a location, nestled literally beside a busy airport, you wouldn't have such high expectations with the trafficability. However, Marriott has once again shown that even with an extremely high turn-over rate, they do not allow the movement to show; at all.
The front desk/reception area is operated by competent staff who are knowledgeable of the area, warm to a conversation, and actually introduced the methodology of separating my lodging expenses with my charged expenses to my room for easier filing business practices by setting the card up in the system; nice tidbit there!
The general seating and breakfast area are always in a high state of cleanliness and offer a wholesome variety of foods all the way until their closing hour. This, accompanied by a grill available for use makes you feel like you're in a home away from home.
The outdoor pool and jacuzzi are a must if you stop in. The patio area hosts plenty of poolside lounge chairs, fresh towels, and the jacuzzi is always hot. As a guest, you have control of the stream jets (which are all functioning) with timer for energy saving purposes.
There is a gym with (2) treadmills, an elliptical, and a seated bike. A free-weights dumbbell rack hosts enough weight to get an on-the-go workout with (2) fully adjustable benches and a rack along the outer wall with medicine and yoga balls. The window hosts a view of the outdoor pool area to make you more comfortable as you improve your health.
Laundry room hosts (3) washers and (6) dryers that are $1.00 each and work very well.
Lastly, and the best piece; my king suite. A full-size refrigerator, kitchen (stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc...), office desk, food table, couch system, TV on a dresser with swivel mount, large closet, and bathroom area. There are outlets everywhere and I honestly enjoy opening my door and seeing the space. It's a perfect flat with plenty of comforts.
