Nice!!

I was employed for 7 months with this hotel

I was employed for 7 months with this hotel

LOL at the guest deception of this place

I've totally been abused by this hotel with literally the most corrupted corporate practices a company could possibly use (literally). I was lied into employment with the company seeing that I was working 2 other jobs before I came. I wouldn't stop questioning my supervisor making it very clear I don't want a worse or as bad of a job, and he just lied through the whole entire interview with me. When I got blatantly discriminated by the racist front desk I just walked out the hotel and wrote a letter stating I have to abide by my own morale standards (the front desk person screamed at me at the top of his lungs for using the word bed bug even though no guest were around while trying to resolve the issue as a cleaner.) Then I was called back to work because they aren't capable of keeping lots of hard working houseman with those practices. A few weeks later I just got fed up and gave my two weeks got another job at Yankee Candle (where I've worked 3 times) and then just got injured at the same time my father died and then totally discriminated by the front desk employees and management who just blatantly got satisfaction out of my pain and suffering (literally) while I've been doing everyone's job these past 3 months. Now I have no job no money and left to sit on my butt, I will take out a loan. I was thinking about contacting a lawyer but decided it is not worth it since everything about this hotel is about saving the owner every penny he can possibly get his rich greedy hands on (he can get his money). This hotel franchise is owned by the company that owns 5 hotels in Hadley (one owner). I will not continue to ramble about my frustration with these soulless people but be proud to tell the guest a few things that go on here.

1. This hotel has an issue with bed bugs that I would get fired for if I were to be mentioning it enough in front of guest.

2. They don't wash there quilts or pillows

3. One side of a 40 pound brochure rack that was being held by two small screws fell so I tried to fix it, then the other side fell and twisted and completely strained the entire left side of body and then all maintenance did was screw it back in the same holes. I later shook the brochure rack lightly after maintenance fixed it and the screws started popping out again, that could seriously injure a toddler or someone

4. The other houseman clean bathrooms then fold the cloth and put it back on the carts only to be used again to wipe the streaks off the precious water glass's. So if you drink from the water cups in the bathrooms you can be sure you may just be licking someone's piss.

5. They don't use deep cleaning vacuums because the higher end workers feel they would cost the owner to much money even though he is not saving money because the rugs just keep getting completely stained.

6. They do no criminal background check which is evident in the fact that everything my supervisor did with me was illegal and he is only about saving the greedy owner pennies. YET HAVE THE MOST CORRUPTED CORPORATE PRACTICES A COMPANY COULD POSSIBLY USE.

7. When I was being trained for the houseman position I literally was being told the entire time that my job is really to make the hotel look more clean then it really is and feel I have the right to say at this point NOTHING ABOUT THIS HOTEL IS THE LEAST BIT SANITARY

8. The Bistro restaurant is pretty nice and have some good options so if I made anyone feel uncomfortable with this review they can hide from the bedbugs by sitting in the lobby, however we are not allowed to vacuum when one person is in the lobby or we would get in trouble with the front desk so don't stay to long. LOL

Stayed 2 nights in November with freezing temperatures outside. On the second night, the thermostat in the room stopped working around 11 PM. The person at the front desk came into our room to take a look and it was not fixable. They didn't have any space heaters. Too much of an inconvenience to move all our stuff at midnight to another room. It was our last night so we just put extra clothes on and made it through the chilly night. At check out time, they didn't charge us for the second night. Bad experience with wuite reasonable compensation in the end.

Good hotel overall. Rooms are a little small and TV is in strange location. Compared to similar hotels in this area, it is lacking microwaves in the rooms and beds are not as comfortable as Fairfield Inn in North Hampton.

The room was clean and in excellent repair. My only complaint is that for the price I expected a larger space and more amenities. I would stay here again but would definitely shop around first because of that.

From the time of our arrival, everything went smooth!!

Our front desk gentlemen, was very accommodating, I asked for tea and he was able to get it for me , and was very nice, since it was super late upon our arrival.
And, in the Morning I went down for coffee and the lady at the front desk, was also very accommodating..
Went out of her way to get me a tray, so I can secure all the many cups of coffees that I was taking up.
As, I have met the manager on our previous trip up, when we first dropped our son at Amherst.
Manger is very helpful and kind spoken to his staff.
Great job!!
Room was super clean and comfy!!!

This property is central to all five institutions in pioneer valley. Staff are warm and engaging. Breakfast options were great and I liked the option for a la carte and buffet. Both indoor amenities and outdoor space are a outstanding. The room was spacious, bed was very comfortable, in room microwave and fridge were a huge plus! Decor in the whole facility was warm and welcoming and up to date. Last but not least, it was a very clean hotel! Great job Marriot. I know know where to call home for our next R&R visit.

Standard Courtyard facing a busy road which makes for a loud room. I had booked the room months earlier given the busy college weekend. But don't expect that the front desk will take into account status or using the mobile app to check-in early to assign a quiet room because, after all, who'd want that? They expect you to feel satisfied that at least they didn't give your room away.

My buddy and I stayed here for D2R2. The hotel itself is nice and is in a semi convenient area. We got upgraded to a better room which was nice and the room itself was big. A bit too big in my opinion (not sure who needs a two room hotel room with one bed in that area). Only reason I gave it 3 star instead of 4 is that the tap water tasted terrible and the "guest" bed was so uncomfortable. You could feel every single spring. The normal bed was comfortable but the sleeping on the floor was more comfortable than the guest bed.

I had the corner larger room which is really nice. The hotel is nice. The only thing i didn't like was the tv. I was there for a nice getaway relaxing weekend but the t.v. is too small for the size of the room. And there is no guide telling you what is on. Other than that. Great place to stay

We LOVED our stay...drove 4.5 hours for an over night stay (visiting Amherst) we didn't arrive until 11:30 at night which thankfully was no problem. When we arrived the kids decided they were hungry being we had never been in the area prior to this trip we asked for help at the front desk, he not only looked up local places but also called to verify they were open! After we go back with the food I accidently dropped one of the key cards down the elevator shaft...and they said no problem we will find it when the area is cleaned. The room was beautiful and unlike most hotels they allowed us to have 5 in one double queen room, they understood 3 where children and had no issues. The kids loved having access to the indoor pool...and I loved the hot tub.

I had an event there a few weeks ago, and the event planner, Lynn, was very rude and unprofessional. She is unorganized and does not know how to properly plan an event for the amount of money you pay there. Choose anywhere else but the Marriott (or even the Holiday Inn because she controls that spot too). Support the other area hotels.

Excellent hotel. Classics of the genre! Like any other in this network. There is a pool, but the truth is not very big. Free huge parking. Normal breakfast. In walking distance of grocery, alcohol shops and small shopping centers. Great service!

What An Amazing place to stay at, and All of The Staff Members are So Kind and Helpful.
My Dad and I went there to meet my New Service Dog and to do a few days of Training.
I couldn't get over how Beautiful and Clean this Resort Is. I Want to Personally Thank The Front Desk Manager who's name is Shawn/Sean, He is So Thoughtful And Welcoming to My Father and I, and Especially for Charlee and his Training with Kevin and myself.

To All of the Staff Members, I will be Foreverly Grateful for the Help and The Importance in making My Life Safer and Better for My Future!!!!

Thank You Gratefully,
Marc Lussier and Charlee

I just spoke to the receptionist name Alex. He gave me great customer serviceI've been on the phone for the last hour trying to find a hotel with a pool that's open, he gave me all the information. All the other hotels I've called I've had to talk to call centers in other countries or robots that don't give me the information I need. I'm very frustrated by this process but being able to talk to Alex very quickly I've been able to sort things out. I will remember the good customer service that I got from Alex
