Marriott at the University of Dayton

Balcony wasn’t swept before we got there. There were slices of onion laying on the balcony like someone had pulled them off a sandwich. Stain on the chair. Stain on bathroom wall. Concierge lounge wasn’t what we expected. Overall a good stay just disappointed in what we got for the price we paid.

I've stayed here several times in the last few years and usually had a great experience but this time it was just okay. On the plus side, my room was clean and comfortable, room amenities worked and fairly up-to-date although the mini fridge could stand to be a little bigger, and it was good value for price I paid. There is also ample parking and the area feels pretty safe although not much to walk to. On the minus side, there seemed to be very few front desk staff throughout my stay, the lobby seemed more like a ghost town than on previous visits, and although I was attending a large annual event for which the organizers had reserved a block of rooms here, the desk clerk upon check-in had never heard of it. When I requested a housekeeping item one night at the front desk, it took forever to arrive. During the day the housekeeping staff are very noisy as they clean and at one point were shouting in the halls at 8 am. Not sure if this place is having service issues or I just caught them on a bad day but it wasn't as good this time.

I expected a higher level of service and better amenities for a Marriott and that was part of why we booked this hotel, but only the bare minimum was offered.

This is our 3rd stay at this Marriott. We always have a great experience. Great place to have dinner, have a drink at the bar, the African American bartender was so great and personable. The pool and hot tub clean. Nice outside area with a Firepit. 10/10 recommend.

I had to leave early in the morning so I had to walk out into the street in the parking lot because all the sidewalks leading to the parking lot were wet with sprinklers going on
