This property wasn’t bad. Everything was at a decent distance, a lot of shopping stores around the area, and not far from Niagara Falls. The only complain was that the bathroom water faucet was clogging the minute we used it, which was not convenient as we arrived late at night and there was no one to service it.

The front desk staff were very welcoming and accommodating. We arrived very early and Lisa was very kind to get us a room so we can rest from our flight. The room was clean and the hotel itself was clean as well. It is a short distance from restaurants and shopping area. I will definately stay here again!

The room was not clean, bathroom was dirty and there was hair all over the sheets (under). It had the appearance of being clean, but there were many areas that look like they have not been touched. My room was right next to the elevator, which didn't end up being too noisy, but it was a strange location. The hallways and elevator smelled like weed (probably a guest, but it was strong). I was charged the full price for French fries because they wouldn't sub those for tomato soup. It was not up to par compared to other Courtyard Marriott hotels where I have stayed.

The staff was friendly and helpful. Pleasant, quiet, and family friendly atmosphere. There were three things that can be improved: 1. The wallpaper in our room was peeling in a couple of places 2. The coffee in the room left a lot to be desired. Thankfully there was a Starbucks in the restaurant on the first floor (which we had to pay for separately, of course). 3. There was a gap in the sidewalk when we exited the hotel to the left, towards the parking lot, that I tripped on, but I was caught and didn’t fall, thankfully. This should be fixed so no one else falls, please.
