All facilities are old. Bath towers are very old. The AC is very old, and the cold air it blows out is full of moldy smell. It was my worst experience staying the “hotel by Marriott”. It costs me $168 / night, for sure it is overpriced, and it is a motel instead.

The lady at the front desk had a lousy attitude. She gave us a room that was occupied, we had to go back down to ask for another room, not acceptable.
