"This is a very good hotel. Not superb….but very good. A few things I could pick at, but the biggest is the lighting in the room. Staying over 100 nights a year in different hotels, I’m convinced that the management doesn’t actually STAY in their rooms for a few days. They walk in and look around and think about staying there. But only after you actually STAY in a room for more than a day do you begin to see holes. There are hotels that I don’t expect everything to be right, and I don’t complain. However, at these prices, there should be nothing wrong. The one thing I’ll mention is the lighting in the room. It is odd at best. The biggest thing is that if you want to turn the light on over the bed, you have to have all the other lights in the room off. You can’t have the bed light and the room lights on at the same time. I even called the manager and he tried, and said that it was programmed that way deliberately. It’s annoying….really annoying. And again, normally I wouldn’t care….but at these prices, it shouldn’t be this way. I suspect that Marriott made this decision, so that a person couldn’t turn on all the lights at once and supposedly waste electricity….however… for $400+ a night….I shouldn’t have to say this. Then there is no light over the coffee maker and fridge area. It’s completely dark. Then there is no light above the tub…again….dark. So, overall a very good hotel. But for this price, it should be superb. Mr. Kazi Rubayet deserves praise from management."
