Reviews
The hotel reviews are mixed, with some guests expressing satisfaction with the cleanliness, location, and staff, while others have had negative experiences with room size, amenities, and customer service. Noise seems to be a common issue, with guests complaining about thin walls and loud guests in the hallways.

This hotel was nice. It was a bit small but it’s OK for a short stay wasn’t noisy. It comes with earplugs in the room. I enjoy that part however I probably won’t stay here again because it’s a little too far from my job but other than that is great all the way around.

Staff were so nice as well. They saw me coming in with a lot of bags and offered to help me unload the car. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Comfortable beds and pillows.

For a Marriott property, this was highly disappointing. When I complained at check-out, I was told that I needed to turn on the shower a certain way next time. Instead of making a guest deal with that, why not provide a room with a properly functioning shower in the first place? I later requested a refund, but the property denied it because I had already used the room for a short stay. That completely misses the point of my complaint. I live only 30 minutes away and booked the room purely for convenience before a red-eye flight for my girlfriend’s birthday. Because of the condition of the shower, I ended up driving 30 minutes back home so she could shower comfortably, then drove back again afterward. At that point, I would have been better off staying home instead of paying for a downgraded room with a half-functioning shower. Overall, it felt like a waste of money, especially for a Marriott property.

Staff were professional, went above and beyond in every way, and always had a smile and sense of humor. The room was clean but some things were dusty/dirty , AC didn’t work properly (but was fixed right away), but in general comfortable. Fridge didn’t cool down until our last day. Great location with walking distance to restaurants. Breakfast was simple but excellent. All in all I loved the experience and would stay at this location again.
- 1.5/5
Hard to find something I liked. I guess I would say the person that check us in was helpful with changing our room. I liked leaving in the morning. The parking situation using a public lot is poor had to park in the last spot in the lot far from the front door, then when I checked in was told I had to put a pass on the dash or I would be ticketed or towed. Seems like they could have a few spaces to use upon checking, and then go park your car. The halls were narrow, the only elevator is slow, walls seem thin as noise from adjacent rooms is easily heard. The coffee service and breakfast options are pretty weak. OJ kept behind locked refrig,

Parking dangerous, The view faced the parking lot—basically no view at all—and it was absolutely awful all night long due to the restaurant located downstairs (which, by the way, is a two-star establishment); it was noisy, and unsafe for the car.

The room was very clean and comfortable. Excellent front desk, bar, gym, and telephone service. Multiple close restaurants in walking distance; some open late. Close to metro train station; 5 minute walk. I had one issue. I wanted more tea. The housekeeping did not read, understand, nor speak English. She was unable to understand a simple request for tea or anything else. She was throwing away items I had said not to touch. She came in the room after being requested, no Service. This was disappointing. I later found out they had variety of teas after I went out searching and purchased tea.

Wish they have hot coffee in common area. Model hotel and Expensive rate but very tight/tiny. Big lobby but that tiny room. The deposit is $150 and reservation of mine is non refundable even the National Weather high wind alert. In addition, I cannot close the shower glass sliding door without removing everything from the wall. Design is stupid. Also another glass sliding door outside restroom. The AC unit is on the ceiling. No room for dinner as the table is so tiny. Very inconvenient. A little more greetings is better as we come for holiday. Overall with the price I paid, there are better other choices.

When I checked out, I accidentally left a shopping bag from Apple Park behind — including a new Apple Watch. I rushed back from the train station and was relieved to find it had been safely set aside. Eli at the reception desk returned it to me with a smile. I’ll absolutely be staying here again next time I’m in town!

Most memorable is when Sarah the front desk helped me get an early check in since I’ll be checking out early as well. Very well appreciated. The elevator though smelled like body odor. I love the gym, very robust on the choice of equipments. Parking is awful though choices are around, there’s a wait if not park blocks away. Room is perfect. Thanksn

Physical space great (Clean room and efficient). Great staff, quaint Main Street in Sunnyvale nearby. Walls are a little too thin between rooms but they do give you ear plugs. Had a very loud late night neighbor that talked on phone from 12-2am next to me which was very hard.

The hotel is just the right size, offering an ideal balance of service and amenities that creates a more relaxed and comfortable atmosphere compared to larger hotels. The front desk staff are welcoming, helpful, and always ready to make guests feel at home.

The room itself was clean and the bathroom was nice, but the AC did not work at all. It stayed at 80 degrees the entire time, and I kept thinking it would cool down but it never did. I woke up sweating and made the mistake of showering, only to step out into the same hot, uncomfortable air. It was so unbearable that I had to leave immediately after. Very disappointing experience given the otherwise decent room.

The aesthetic from outside looks fancy. I would rate my overall stay as 4/5. This is because every day, I get a knock on the door for "house keeping" which I did not request. It somehow disturb my sleep in the morning. The gesture and the service being offered is good, but I would appreciate it if they do such only if the guest requested it. Also, the elevator smells so bad (weed). For a person who is allergic to smell, that was not a good experience.

The only reason I did 4/5 was because parking was always a bit difficult when coming back as it wasn’t just hotel parking so others parked and took up spots for the places nearby. Otherwise the staff was very kind, room was clean, and it was a perfect spot for my weekend trip.

It's very inconvenience for staff workers who work the late or midnight shift. Since check in is 3:00pm and most late shifts starts at 5:30pm to 6:00am, you really do not have any time to enjoy your room to take a shower and relax before and after work. Other competitors will accommodate the client for an earlier check in, but do NOT charge $40 extra dollars. I find this ridiculous and this has caused me and my TEAM members for TESLA to book at the residence Inn, which is more accommodating and serve FREE breakfast and early check in for NO EXTRA CHARGE.

We stayed over the weekend and checked in Friday and we were given a very small room and queen bed. The room is so small that we could hardly put our 2 small luggage and we’re having a hard time maneuvering inside a very small room. The queen bed looks a full bed and we both couldn’t fit comfortably on the bed. I ended up booking another room in the same hotel which cost us more to stay there comfortably. We have stayed at Aloft in Cupertino, San Jose and Chicago .. this is by far the worst place. Will never stay again .

I work for emergency communications and arrived after work at 120am. The front door wad locked and there was no staff around. I stood outside for about about 15 mins, before someone showed up. The rooms are very clean, but they are ultra tiny. If you don't mind sleeping in a box, then this will be ok. As a Bonboy Member, I was granted late check out, however, at 1030am or so, someone banged on my door, wanting to check the fire sprinklers. At no time, did they alrert me of anything else. At 12pm or so, the alarm foe the fire system went off, it went on for about 30 mins. I ended up geting up and leaving early. It was so upsetting, given i had another long night shift at 911. Also, the snacks are priced so high, $7 for a bag of chips, $5 for an apple. And unlike, other Marriott hotels, theres no streaming, wifi is slow, and the security deposit is $150 per night! Not worth it!

The stay for new years eve was ok, nothing special to write home about. the room wasn't initially ready when I got there, internet never connected to my video game console, shower arm was chipped or broken so was unable to adjust the water pressure(I wanted a walk-in shower but got a tub combination instead which i told the front desk several times that is what i wanted), holding charge of $150 felt really steep especially for one day (takes upto 7 business days to get back (which is still annoying), bar wasn't open due to main person not showing up. Overall, the stay for one day wasn't memorable and will be my last time staying there. They're are better hotels within the area that you will enjoy.

Plus side located near Murphy Street restaurants and walking distance to park and movie theater. Limited parking due to lot is shared with local businesses, one of which is a popular bar. Need to find a parking spot early, before happy hour.
