Miscommunication about parking. If you have a small U-Haul they won’t let you park there. It worked out though. Also, they put a $100 hold, not $50 like we were told. Again, not a huge deal for us but I’m sure some might struggle.

I arrived on a late flight and arrived just after midnight. Was not received very well and found the front desk staff very uncommitted and not very engaging. Definately not helpful. This was not just when I arrived but through our the stay. I found this very surprising due 1) Always love Marriott and 2) Always love Tennessee hospitality, both of which were lacking. This is a comment about the front desk staff only.

Very freshly renovated in 2021 under new ownership by Marriott and super clean, modern rooms with extremely comfortable beds, welcoming and friendly staff, ideal location between shopping/restaurants and UT campus and nearby Convention Center, and bonus of free parking after 6 pm Friday all weekend at Locust Street Garage just a block away

We got a free upgrade to a different room which was nice. But we got into the room, the shower was a little disassembled, the hair conditioner was completely empty inside the shower, it looked like someone used our ‘supposedly new’ travel size lotion. The floor was also dirty inside the room. It was not the greatest stay. Inconveniences everywhere. I went to check out and NO ONE asked about how our stay was. It was just a quick receipt and on my way. Very disappointed with the staff of this hotel. Also, it is VALET ONLY. So an extra $35 a night no matter what. The valet service was HORRENDOUS. They don’t load your luggage onto a luggage carrier for you. They aren’t friendly at all. Very short with people. For $35 a night, they literally don’t do anything but park your car. That’s it. The rate for this ‘4 star hotel’ looks great, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The area isn’t the greatest. Very convenient being off of I-75. But it is directly beside a homeless shelter. Saw lots of people sleeping on the side of the street while walking back from dinner on University of Tennessee campus.
