The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. Cold eggs and rolls that are so hard they would be better used as hockey pucks.

The bed at this property was AMAZING. Very comfortable accomodations, clean environment, and friendly staff. I was not expecting to pay $15 for parking per night, so that's something to note. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

The line for the breakfast was very long. When we got there there was no waffles left and very little food. It’s very bad organize. We didn’t have chance to get to eat breakfast. The smell of the room had bad ordor. Very unhappy. We paid lots of money to stay here.

We stayed here for one night for a CalPoly graduation the following day. Premises was new, clean, welcoming and the room was spacious enough for our family. Being a Residence Inn, we were able hold the flowers, leis, and some fast food in the fridge we picked up on the drive over so it was very convenient. The bathroom had a large shower area and the bed area was clean and comfortable. Being only 8 mins from campus made this a perfect choice! Staff was also very friendly--we drove in at 12:45am the day off (since we were coming from a distance) and there was someone nice and friendly at the front desk to greet us and make our stay inviting. Parking is a challenge (prob because of graduation) since they have tons of EV-only parking and I have a gas car--but they allowed me to park in an EV-only space if needed. I found parking and declined. There is a $15 parking charge which I was not expecting but at this point, I just paid it from my card. No worries. Overall, would stay here again.

Nice new hotel, but fixable issues
The hotel was new….recently built in a newer development area. The hotel and staff were very nice and bed comfortable. Lots of EV charging stations. I couldn’t been happier with this part of the hotel. Only thing to note….the EV area in front of the lobby doors and there is no walking path thru the EV area to the parking lot. Not a big deal except it’s a hotel which most have luggage. Just a design flaw but still fixable.
Now for the bad. We always stay at hotels with breakfast. We pay more for hotels that offers this service. Just make the morning much easier and faster. I’ve stayed at hundreds of hotels in my lifetime and a good amount of them at Marriott’s. This breakfast was the worst I’ve ever experienced at a hotel. It was basically non-existent. Nothing was available. No eggs, no bacon, no potatoes, no bread, no oatmeal, no coffee….nothing. The waffle makers were there but “not available” for use? We and many other guest waiting and when they did bring out food…it was gone instantly to those that stood in the food area. We chalk it up as bad day and new hotel. However the exact same thing happened the next day. We didn’t show up 10mins before end of service. We were there both days before 8am. 2 days of no breakfast from the hotel and both days we went out and purchased it.
I have no doubt that it’s an isolated to this hotel and maybe due to training or lack of staff being new. Whatever it is, Marriott needs to resolve this issue asap.
