Came here on business. Stayed several weeks. The place is decent but for seasoned travellers, it is a little mediocre.
The place needs some sprucing up and refreshing. I am told some rooms have recently been renovated but I suppose not mine; the bathroom amenities need to be reviewed to match contemporary practices as the standard toiletries (both the format and content) is a bit dated compared to competing hotel brands; and the breakfast spread while alright, does look a bit predictable for regular travellers--the spread is alright if one does not always eat hotel breakfast buffets, I do so on a fairly regular basis so the expectations are certainly different. Having said that, I still think that the Marriott brand should still consider offering something different compared to other similar brands.

The pool here is rather small and not quite suitable for serious laps and a touch too shallow for flip turns (my height is average to short).
The gym is good. Full equipment sets. Weight machines, freeweights, pull up and dip stations and other calisthenics stuff, and of course treadmills (with individual screens) and bike stations. No cross trainers. Gym is 24/7 I am told. Was there between 2200 and 2300hrs with no issues.

Security is tight. They don't skimp on having the equipment and manpower here. Won't share details because it is security related. But worth noting that this hotel was hit by a terrorist bomber some time back.
