• The appearance and ambience of the hotel was wonderful!
• At the bar in the evening on one particular night; it was freezing! The staff stated that because of the many windows it is very often cold.

“I was thrilled with the price, the accommodations and the room itself; but especially the staff. They were consistently courteous and very helpful and pleasant to deal with.”

• Nothing.
• Too old, bar too drafty, pay for Internet.

“The place needs an upgrade/hotel overhaul. Staff was good. Egress from hotel is limited to get to parking lot from certain areas as far as I could tell and utilize hotel signage).”

• Great beds!
• Parking is terrible.

“Enjoyed a recent stay at the Melville Marriott, although this is an older property, it is well maintained and the rooms are large with comfy beds. The location of the Hotel is right off the LIE.”

• Clean bathrooms and clean towels.
• Lack of friendly and helpful staff.

“Hotel would suit the business travel as a clean bed to sleep for the night. However, you should think twice if you must bring your family.”

• I was moved to another room when the noise from hallway was very loud.
• I was moved from a noisy room to a room across from the ice maker. The hotel is not close to any town.

“The hotel is a biz travelers hotel and suited for meetings not a romantic get a ways.”

• Bed and linens -- extremely comfortable.

• The staff, the design, the food at the restaurant all-was fantastic.
• Light bulb in room was flickering but it was changed.

“We sold our home upstate and needed a place to stay for a while until we closed on our new home in long island. While my husband went to work I had to stay alone with our three year old daughter at the hotel. There was not much stuff for us to do as a family, but the restaurant gave her crayons and a sheet of paper to color which is always great! That was a family friendly move -trust me my daughter makes it an issue if the restaurant does not give her crayons. The pool was also very nice. The staff was remarkable and the hotel was beautiful. We stay at only the top resorts and hotels all the time because we need to be safe with our daughter. Good hotels seem safer for us as a family. Out of all the hotels we have ever stayed in this was the best! Even the place we stood at for our honeymoon in Puerto Rico does not come close to the class and cleanliness this hotel had to offer. Please let them know how we felt. I would like to~ thank them for all they did for us.”

• Location, comfortable bed.
• Noise, slow dinner service.

“This is an attractive facility in a good location, however we stayed here on a Saturday evening when there were several weddings or private parties booked, and the noise level was unacceptable. Twice we had to call the front desk about the noise of people talking and children running in the halls. Also, we ate in the restaurant which was fairly pricey, and were seated next to a large table full of teenagers with no adult present. They were loud, rude, talking on cell phones, using profanity, etc. Further, the dinner service was exceedingly slow, and the restaurant seemed to be woefully understaffed.”

• Very convenient to where we needed to be and to public transportation into NYC.
• Wobbly stair railing, soap dishes, sloppy cleanup, lack of room service pickup all detracted from the stay.

“The Marriott Melville is conveniently located near the Farmingdale long island railroad station and near the family we were visiting. The hotel has a pool, adequate room service, and helpful if not overly friendly front desk staff. The hotel was able to arrange for adjoining rooms so my husband and I could keep an eye on our children. The rooms we were assigned appeared to be accessible, with large bathrooms, half-height closet rods, and wheelchair height peepholes. The rooms needed some renovations. The noticeable problems were crumbling tile grout, and loose soap holders. There was an internet box (not wireless) but inadequate instructions to log on, so we didn't use it. Surprisingly, there was no refrigerator in the rooms. Room service was adequate, but they failed to pick up our service items after we called (still in the hallway the next morning--yuck.) The public areas of the hotel looked worn. The lobby was being cleaned after an event. The staff had thrown drapes and other service items on the floor, which did not leave a positive impression. There were stains on the carpet. The handrail for the stairs to the right of the pool was loose and wobbly: a major safety concern. We had a nice two-night stay, but this property could use some attention.”

• Room service was prompt for breakfast.
• Room service never quite got the order right.

“The plusses... nice clean room. The minuses.. .inconvenient parking either really long walk or up the stairs... short staffed so wait times were extraordinary for simple things....”

• The staff was very friendly and my room was fabulous.
• My room was close to the lobby, so there was a lot of noise.

“I think the hotel is very nice. the staff was very friendly and helpful. My biggest gripe about the hotel was my room, is situated very close to the main lobby, and there was a large gap between the floor and the door (big door space), which made it easy for sound to travel in and out of the room. How much privacy can attain with this condition.”

• Huge rooms and a fantastic staff.
• No complaints.

“This hotel is conveniently located just off the Long Island Expressway but still is quiet and feels secluded. The hotel staff was extremely courteous and helpful. The accommodations were very clean and spacious with a beautiful pool and lounge area. I highly recommend this hotel if you are vacationing or visiting on Long Island.”
