I had the misfortune to be a business guest at this hotel the weekend of the Penn Relays. OMG. The night after the races, the "children" lodging there were extraordinarily noisy. Even after calling the hotel front desk and having a security guard raid some rooms, the noise continued.
Of course, the hotel didn't send ME a survey asking how the stay was. I'm a frequent Marriott guest, but in the future... second and third thoughts about this outfit.
Clean & friendly staff

Everything was good with the hotel. Bed was VERY comfortable. We had a very good maid that was very friendly & took excellent care of our room. The hotel was hosting a couple of conventions, but all services & requests were handled professionally.
Only downside is that the room decor needs to be updated a bit and they charge $13 a day for internet which is a little much in this day & age.

The Marriott downtown was great. The hotel staff was helpful and very nice, they made us feel very welcome. We were in walking distance of alot of the touristy things, the Reading Market is right there and it has alot to offer. Macys is just around the corner and restaurants are very close. Our room was very clean and comfy. We had no complaints except we went to the football game and our team lost :( but the Eagles fans are so supportative of their team its hard not to have a good time. We would go back, the people in philly are very friendly to tourist.The hotel exceeded our expectations. Great breakfast bar in the restaurant downstairs a little pricey but very good.

Great location, great room in the tower and really nice bar area. Lawanda in guest services was a great help and good recommendations for dinner. Highly recommend it!
Would visit again

The hotel was great, it is located in the middle of many restaurants such as chilis and the hardrock cafe. The beds are outrageously comfortable and room service is very prompt in the morning. My only complaint would be the amount of time it takes to get to and from your rooms. The elevators take FOREVER. Also the swimming pool is a major disappointment, half the time was spent shoulder to shoulder with someone else from the hotel. The swimming pool is way to small for the amount of people the hotel holds, so if you have kids that look forward to swimming I would go elsewhere. Otherwise it is a great hotel.
