First thing first, hotel parking is under the hotel and its valet only. $40 a night and no choice of other parking. Only other parking is on the street which is at risk of being hit plus you have to pay for parking which is more than the valet. Welcome to the city and Marriott Courtyard. Hotel was super nice, area was nice and quiet and 2 min down the road from the boardwalk. Hotel itself was clean, classy, and modern. Staff were respectful and extremely helpful. They have a 24/7 snack and drink shop that gets charged to your room so no need to scramble to pay at the time. They have a bistro for breakfast and dinner, it does cost $15-$25 to eat. IS NOT FREE!! Elevators from ground floor and up require room card to ensure only guests and employees have access to rooms. Our room was very clean! Not a stain on the furniture, mattress, or sheets. Bathroom was spotless and modern with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. They have supply makeup remover wipes for your spouse!! Rooms are supplied with smart Samsung tv with full on cable and options to securely login to your streaming apps like Netflix, logs you out everytime TV turns off to ensure the next guest doesn’t have access to your account. Room was excellent all together! Bed and furniture were super comfortable! They have a gym and heated pool, NO HOT TUB! saving the best for last the Valet services were AMAZING! The guys manning it 24/7 were respectful, got our doors for us! They were the cherry on top! Loud blue Kia!

no hotel parking, forced to pay for valet. room service is only in certain days so trash might not get emptied out and bed will not be made daily. construction was happening during our stay so it was quite disturbing. it was a great stay though, beds are super duper comfy and was near al the things planned for the trip.
