Courtyard

I liked the location and the staff. The room was big with wasted space. The coffee pot was in bathroom, when there was a huge main space for example. It is unfortunate that the breakfast buffet was so pricey for a continental breakfast. The room is on the expensive side to start with, after all.

Positives: The location good, staff friendly/efficient Liked computer and coffee in lobby!

Negatives: The breakfast was much too expensive!!

This is a nice hotel in a decent growing and thriving area. It is, however, time for a face lift / refresh before it is more costly. The bathroom tiles were chipping and<BR/>the grout was flaking all over the place. Some carpeting is worn and paint is chipping.

Positives: Location is a nice growing area.

Negatives: This is a nice hotel. It is time for a face lift / refresh before it is more costly. The bathroom tiles were chipping.

While close to downtown and easy to get to, this hotel fell far short of Marriott standards in terms of cleanliness.

Positives: Price was good.

Negatives: Room cleanliness left much to be desired. Requested a credit for the room - it was that bad.

This hotel is one of the two choices I have in Worcester, MA and both of them are by Marriott (The other one is Residence Inn). Its location is within walking distance to WPI; therefore, there is no noise. You can easily commute to the center of the city or getting on freeway to get back to Boston.

Positives: Hotel/ room is very nice, and its location is very convenience to commute with the city itself.

Negatives: Breakfast was not free and very expensive for a simple egg/ sausage and/or butter toast dishes.

Very helpful staff. Very comfortable beds. Location is not great. Front desk warns you to take anything out of the car you want to see in the morning. Some strange smells throughout the building. Mildew smell in the bathroom despite it seeming very clean. Stains on the carpet between the beds. Strange smell in the lobby as well which I noticed when I spent a bit of time down there with some friends. A faulty door latch that was tricky to open and had obviously seen better days. Two out of the three phone extensions in the room did not work. Main outlet when you come into the room did not function. Bad TV reception. All this not as bad as it sounds. Comfortable beds when you are tired make up for a lot. Regardless, I got a good night's sleep at a very reasonable price.

Positives: Very comfortable beds.

Negatives: Faulty door lock, mildew smell in the bathroom despite it being very clean.

Convenient location, friendly staff. Very clean and new looking. Room was very quiet. Room was a little small, but comfortable. Because they are a Courtyard business hotel, they have a lot of rooms with a king bed and fold-out couch, so there aren't very many rooms with two double beds. They only offer breakfast and dinner at a basic cafe. No lunch, no room service. Very convenient if you are visiting Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

Positives: Very convenient to WPI.

Negatives: No room service.

Overall, my experience at the hotel was fine for what I payed, and besides the pool and front desk being ill equipped (there was a lack of extra toiletries on hand like cotton swabs) and a bit unfriendly, my stay was enjoyable. The room was clean and cozy and that's the most important thing anyway.

Positives: It was quiet.

Negatives: The pool didn't look very clean.

Everything has wonderful.

Easy location. Nice clean rooms and public areas. I was very disappointed in the breakfast and the information said there was food available in the lounge, but it wasn't, only a bar. They need to provide a listing for area restaurants with directions. We happened to be familiar with the area, but it would still have helped.

Positives: It was clean and comfortable. Convenient location.

Negatives: $10.95 for breakfast was outrageous for a vary basic, free everywhere else, buffet breakfast!

It was very sterile. The gym does not have a change room or a shower. I saw only one conference room. We stayed on the ground floor but the blackout curtain was very effective. The air-conditioning was great. The staff was very freindly and knowledgeable.

Positives: The parking was easy and the staff knowledgeable.

Negatives: It was located in what appeared to be an industrial park.
