  • Great location, helpful staff.
  • Poorly maintained and noisy room.

“Very disappointed with my room. The heater broke in the middle of my first night. Music wafted up through the outside wall literally 24 hours a day (I never did determine its origin), forcing me to schlep out for earplugs in the middle of the night. No wireless internet access in the rooms, and no internet cables available, again forcing me to make a trip to find an internet cable.”

  • Staff was great.
  • Expensive wireless internet, broken bathroom faucet, only one workstation computer, none of the printers worked.

“The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, restaurant staff included. But for a business traveler, the services were abysmal. Wireless cost upwards of $10 per 24 hours, and the workstation had only one working computer and no working printers. I had to have the front desk print out my documents, and while they were accommodating, this was not ideal. Considering the extra cost over an economy hotel, I was quite surprised.”

  • I liked the quiet atmosphere around the hotel.
  • I thought you could hear the noise in the hall.

“We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It met our ex petitions and we would like to stay there again if we would go back to the area.”

  • Very friendly and courteous.
  • The bed needs to be replaced.

“The staff was great, the room was great. I took the kids to the pool and we were out of the room most of the evening. When we settled in for the night, I found out that the bed (king) should have been replaced. If it wasn't 11:00, and we weren't settled in I would have asked for a different room. Other than the bed in this room, the hotel was really good. I will go back (but test the bed before I do anything else). I filled out a card and spoke with management about the bed the next day. They seemed concerned.”

  • Exceptional hotel staff.
  • Charge of $3.95 for each 15 minutes of internet in the business center is excessive - others are free in business center and in room.

“Exceptional staff. Beautiful, clean hotel. Quiet rooms. Starbucks coffee in the lobby - very pleasant stay.”

  • Friendly staff; great location for RTP, great room service.
  • Nothing!

“There aren't a lot of overly nice places in RTP to stay at. The Marriott is excellent in all regards--nice staff, clean and updated rooms, great room service. It's close to IBM and many other companies in Research Triangle Park and just a quick drive from the great South point Mall where you can shop and eat great food. Whatever you do, don't stay at the Wyndham Suites--it's awful!”

  • Fluffy, comfortable beds and cleanliness are important.
  • King suite was small and there are no kitchenettes.

“I actually sent my in-laws to your hotel. The feedback they gave me, I didn't even have to ask for, they enjoyed the stay so much they couldn't wait to tell me. I did however see the actual hotel and room for myself and liked what I saw (except the fact that there was no kitchenette). The down comforter and all the extra pillows were a nice touch (much appreciated when spending hard earned money). The next time I spend money with the Marriott, I definitely will be sleeping there myself. Thank you for your services.”

  • Clean, beautifully appointed room with a very comfortable bed.
  • They charge extra for wireless internet.

“I loved the cleanliness and the appointments. The staff was friendly and helpful. I was disappointed that in a hotel of this quality that we were expected to pay more for wireless internet. We therefore were not able to get any work done that evening. We left so early I could not speak about the breakfast.”

  • Felt luxurious and was conveniently located to the airport and food.
  • A little hard to find initially because the sign for it is hidden by foliage.

“This is by far the best experience we have. The hotel was magnificent and the staff was courteous and professional. Our room was immaculate and the bed was very comfortable.”

  • Great Location and Great Amentities

“Unfortunatley, I can not give this hotel an overall stellar apprasial because two things happened that make an extensive business travler such as I very upset. The Sink in the bathroom did not drain properly so I could not shave. Plus, the hot water in the room did not kick in until about 3 minutes into my shower it finally got warm. This was after about 5 minutes of warming trying to warm up the sink water to at least try and shave. Other than this major issue, it is a very nice hotel in a great location.”
