  • The pool and amenities were great. Friendly people!
  • Small room. No bathroom near the pool/fitness area.

“Great location for business, but not designed for leisure travel. Not having a bathroom near the pool area makes for an awkward trip through the lobby mixing a dripping swimsuit with business suits! The staff was extremely helpful and kind!”

  • We arrived in a snow storm did not want to spend a lot for dinner, but had to get in the car and drive to an Applebees; lighter fare, great price.

“It is an older hotel, but updated. The rooms are small, but very comfortable. The coffee maker is awkward by the TV. Overall, a very beautiful hotel. We would love to stay there again on our next trip to Lexington.”

  • Marriotts are always nice. The Tempurpedic bed with the clean white linens was very comfortable. The pool area is clean, warm and spacious.
  • Because I didn't put a do not disturb sign out and ignored housekeeping when they came, security was sent and nearly busted down the locked door.

“Great hotel. Great restaurant. It was in keeping with Marriott. The hotel is clean and the lobby and common areas are very nice. New furnishings bring the hotel above many others. My only complaint was that I went to rest and when I didn't answer housekeeping because I did not need them, security was sent. They opened my door which was locked from the inside but kept trying to open it by jostling or shaking the door forcefully. I was in bed and began franticly calling the front desk for help only to find they thought they were helping me somehow. After talking to the front desk they said they were just assuring my safety. It was an intrusion and not appreciated at all.”

“We will stay here again. We are in the process of moving from Ashland, KY to Newport Beach, CA and needed a few days to get away before all the commotion. I had been wanting to stay here and I it was better than I expected. The entire place was immaculate. We were treated like we were the only ones staying at the hotel by the staff. It was quiet and very enjoyable.”

  • Convenience, price, location.
  • Dirty bathroom hair on the floor and in the bathtub (not mine)!

“This Marriott is usually a very nice place to stay, but I was a little disappointed in the (lack of) cleanliness in the bathroom. That's about the only complaint I have other than Christmas "partiers" running up and down the hallway in the wee hours of the morning talking very loudly and knocking on doors. The hotel cannot help it when people act like that. Just wish we'd have been put on another floor. Unless, of course, they all were housing "partying people.”
