I was very impressed with all of the employees; Ms Minnie at the desk, Latia in the kitchen. Could not ask for more personable, helpful and friendly people to represent Marriott!

This is a very clean, nice hotel. The Capet down the hallway is very nice. They have a business area with computers on ground floor with bar. Many outlets everywhere. No fans in the ceiling but the AC works really well. If you have a suite there is AC in every room along with TV, microwave, small refrigerator.

Excellent place to stay esp. if doing something at USC. Has free shuttle within 3 Mike radius, nice pool & fitness, excellent food & drinks (a little on the expensive side) & awesome staff. Seems newly renovated. Will stay there again. Thanks!!
