My hotel experience was wonderful. I think the breakfast was a bit pricey. Please upgrade the in room TV to HD.

Positives: I liked the friendly and helpful staff.

Negatives: The old television in the room. Please get HD TV's.

Hotel was clean and quiet. Halls and room smelled nice. Pool was too small.Staff was polite but not informative or friendly.

Positives: It was close to the expressway, very clean.

Negatives: The staff did not go out of their way to tell me what amenities I was entitled to. We checked out without knowing if we had complimentary breakfast.

We blocked 12-15 rooms for some of the 250 guests at our daughter's wedding. Seems in a 2.5 hour span someone broke into our sons car to steal clothing and a laptop. His pregnant wife left the reception early and he followed later in the shuttle we provided. Police were called and a report was made. Courtyard by Marriott, Gateway Center, will be a sore memory of our event for the 18+ guests we put into that hotel for the evening. Security seems to be lacking at this location and both the thieves and police are aware of this fact.

Positives: Close to our daughters wedding location and highway for 18+ guests.

Negatives: Easy pickings for thieves who broke into sons car and made a clean escape.

I have stayed here before and was completely satisfied. Next time I will know to specify that mine should not be a former smoking room; you simply can't de-smoke a hotel room. We should have requested a change of rooms, but it was late, we were tired and the hotel was crowded. Burned out vanity light bulb. Remaining bulbs were an off-white or yellow and gave far too little illumination. I will willingly stay here again, but only because on my previous visit the accommodations were excellent.

Positives: From previous stays, most everything.

Negatives: Former smoking room; it was obvious! Housekeeper did not clean room; clean towels not needed, but we expected room would be swept & beds made.

The hot tub broke down the final two nights we stayed on. We were given free breakfast buffet meals for the following morning. The staff noticed we played games and met friends in the lobby and even offered us additional games since we were visiting from out of state. The front desk and the night man both were the best people you could ever meet. The manager stopped and visited with us while we were playing in the lobby and offered us anything she could get us and even offered our guests free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. The breakfasts were fabulous and cooked to order plus a buffet.

Positives: The front desk staff and housekeeping all were great!

Negatives: Hot tub broke down the last two nights of our stay.

This hotel have a reputation for comfort and luxury. The Flint property holds up this reputation well.

Positives: Luxury and comfort of room. Great balcony!

Negatives: Cannot think of a thing.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 01 Apr 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Although we would have been closer to our destination had we stayed in the city of Flint.

Positives: Better than staying in Flint where we originally intended to stay.

Negatives: Not much of a selection for workout equipment.

The hotel was clean and well kept. The rooms were modern and comfortable. Pool was great, the kids loved it. A great hotel for business travel, or to stay close to the airport in which we flew out from.

Positives: Close to the airport we were flying out of.

Negatives: Wait staff at the cafe was not rude and very slow to serve us.

The hotel has a very elegant feeling about it. The rooms are nice and clean. I would have loved warmer covers on the bed. I was very disappointed that the pool was unavailable and that they don't offer a free continental breakfast.

Positives: The hotel staff was friendly and the rooms were clean.

Negatives: The pool was broken and there was no continental breakfast.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 30 Aug 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

Hotel very satisfactory with friendly staff. Typical of most places we have stayed was in need of minor repairs especially to lamps. Good, quiet AC unit. A little noisy with slamming doors until after midnight. We would stay again if in area.

Positives: Central location & easy to find, good value for rate paid, excellent non-smoking facility.

Negatives: Booked king bedded room but had to take double bedded room, minor problem.

We are a family of four. The hotel was not full. She could have shown some sympathy and courtesy. In all fairness, she did give us breakfast vouchers, but that was not what we wanted. The room was a non-smoking one, but definitely smelt of smoke. We were too tired to ask her for anything more after the first encounter.

Positives: Location and cleanliness.

Negatives: Receptionists were unhelpful and treated us poorly.

For the cost of this hotel it is an excellent choice. We checked in early upon our arrival and had a late check out. They were very accommodating.

Positives: The rooms were comfortable and clean.

Negatives: Inadequate towel supply at the pool.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 21 Jun 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

Every one was friendly and very helpful. Everywhere I went appeared neat and clean. Our only disappointment with the stay was they did not offer a complimentary breakfast of any kind. We were in town for a baseball tournament and the day of checkout we had a game scheduled for 8:00am. We did not have time to stay for the breakfast (served by the restaurant) and I wanted something for my son instead of fast food. But all in all I think it was an excellent experience.

Positives: It was very clean and the staff was very friendly.

Negatives: They did not offer any complimentary breakfast food.

I got everything I expected of a Marriot Hotel and more. The staff was probably the most friendly hotel staff I've dealt with. They were very accommodating and understanding being that I had a 1 year old and 3 year old with me. My room was cleaned every day. We had new towels each day and didn't have to scrounge around for dry ones. The room gave us enough space to move around without being on top of each other. In addition, the decor of the room was very modern and fresh. The pool and hot tub area was well maintained and well placed at the hotel. I definitely would book again here.

Positives: Friendly staff & spacious, clean, comfortable room.

Negatives: Nothing, it fully met my expectations.

Overall the hotel was a great experience!

Positives: The room was very clean and the hotel staff was very friendly.

Negatives: The second floor ice machine area smelled spoiled.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 04 Jan 2007 rated 9 out of 10.

Off the highway, not far from all locations. Easy getting around. I would stay here for both leisure and pleasure.

Positives: Friendly staff with a good location that I would return to.

Negatives: Lots of guests from the neighboring hotel coming to use the pool. The hotel nest door was under renovations and everyone who came to this hotel wanted.

As always, I was thrilled with the quality of my room at the courtyard Marriott. Once again, providing wonderful accommodations!

Positives: The rooms were very clean and that's perfect!

Negatives: There is nothing that I didn't like at this hotel.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 12 Nov 2006 rated 8 out of 10.

All the rooms were non-smoking and steep fines were posted in the room for those that didn't comply. Maybe this room was a recently converted smoking room?

Positives: Hotel was clean & well-maintained.

Negatives: Room smelled like stale smoke.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 31 Oct 2006 rated 9 out of 10.

The room itself was just fine. But, I was horrified to find a supposedly clean water glass in the bathroom with what looked like ashes in the bottom! Beyond that, the room was very clean. The staff was great. Don't bother with the breakfast buffet, though

Positives: Was very neat and clean.

Negatives: The breakfast "buffet" was way overpriced!

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 19 Oct 2006 rated 10 out of 10.

They were very nice. Room was either new or just very clean feeling even the carpet, bath area, chairs, bedding and bed. These are what I find most important in my traveling.

Positives: Clean carpet, bedding seemed new than others I have been in.

Negatives: I would like to have this rate for everywhere I go. I just want a place that is clean, safe.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 31 Aug 2006 rated 9 out of 10.

I would recommend this hotel to friends or family because of the accommodations and the convenience to the expressway.

Positives: The beds were very comfortable and the decor was nice.

Negatives: No comments.
