Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I recently stayed at this hotel and gained a “Bestie!” Both Samia & Sandra were so accommodating. They made my stay enjoyable and smooth. They were able to answer all my questions and navigated me through all the amenities. The breakfast was amazing, fresh, and seasoned well. Hotel was clean. Staff friendly and the manger very knowledgeable. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you Bestieeee

We are platinum members and I say that to express how much traveling we do. We just stayed at the Gaylord in Baltimore and I have to say - this experience here at the courtyard was really nice. Why - the staff was warm, friendly and engaging. We asked for a local place to eat and Samia gave us a quick lay of the land and asked a few questions and it was priceless - "alive and kicking". She was not just helpful but she made connections asked were we where from and then Remembered the next day. She told us about she mentioned Trader Joe's behind us- so helpful. The hotel was clean, comfortable - loved the pillows, but service made you feel special! Thank you Samia!

Typical, but good Marriott quality...However for$300 a night our expectations were much higher. Decent location but a little hike to wherever you want to walk too. Checked the rates after we got here and were all under $100.00. Called the concierge on the phone and it rang 20 times, hung up and called front desk and were rudely told” we don’t have a concierge”. Would second guess this choice next time. Don’t make our mistake, we won’t be back. October 2018

Super great service at the front desk by Judit and Joel. Very comfortable bed and clean room! I was traveling for work and everything was perfect. No complaints. Great location, a 15 min walk from the center of the town. Nice view of the water.

As a hotel this is fine. The rooms are huge and everone on the group commented on the fantastic views over the water. Reception and housekeeping were fantastic. There are some downsides; only 1 restaurant in site (good quality but pricey) and no easting places nearby. If you aren't american, its a bit of a walk into town, but being new england there are footpaths and generally the roads are quiet and the area is perfectly safe. Parking is expensive at $45/day at time of writing; there is some limited on-raod parking for free dependent on the weather.

Very helpful, friendly and warm employees (Sandra and Brahim at the front desk were great), clean, good location. The $32 resort fee is annoying, but could be used on the overpriced (but decent) breakfast. Comfortable bed. The heating unit was a bit noisy. Parking is overpriced.
