This hotel is absolutely not worth the price tag as there are multiple issues. The first being the car service they promise was out of service and when we asked why we had not been notified of this staff replied that "the service had been out for a long time" yet they still advertise it. The bathroom door is see through which is obviously an issue and there is no ramp to get into the hotel so you have to drag your luggage up the steps as no staff offered to assist. A staff member wrote us a sticky note upon check in of "where not to go" because the area around the hotel is so unsafe. The safe is housed in a drawer of the night stand which means anyone can simply pull the drawer out and walk out with it. The water bottles in the room are not free and cost $6 a bottle which is fine except we were told they were free when we called prior to arrival. Lastly, Wifi is not free either and you can only get it if you are a Marriott member. Which again is not mentioned until you arrive. For the price tag this hotel is not worth it and very unfriendly for differently abled folks.

We were not able to take our trip due to Delta airline cancellations. So, we had to cancel our hotel stay. The hotel (The Press-a Marriott property) was not willing to refund our $1600.00. As a Titanium Elite for life Marriott customer, I am disappointed in Marriott and Expedias efforts to obtain refund. Paul Richey (901) 828-1587 1602 Ganton Dr Dexter, MO. 63841

Nice but should be better for the price.
The stay was fine but for the price, it should have been outstanding. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice. But there were things that need improvement-the hairdryer was cheap, the outlets by the bed did not work-so my phone was not charged and ironing board was broken. There were trays and items left in the hallway for an extended time. None of this was a big deal but for a $777/night room charge, things should be great. I did room service for breakfast ($50 for one person) but got a cup of coffee (should have been a pot), no salt/pepper, water or jams. Service was good but didn’t blow me away. It felt like a regular Marriott -but was priced much higher. This place could be special cause the location is good, if they just provided the extra value.

Just spent a week here for our first trip to Maine. The location was amazing as there were dozens of shops and restaurants just outside the front door and within a two to three block radius. Many of the attractions we had planned on visiting were just blocks away and the Casco boat ferry shipyard was less than a ten minute walk. We felt safe in the area and the quality of the area was great. Our room was spacious and comfortable. We declined housekeeping service during our stay but the hallways, lobby and front desk areas were spotless. Having worked in hotels for 35 years I can say this property is exceptional and everyone from the hotel we encountered were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.
