Had to make a quick decision to book a room when a family member's flights were suddenly canceled late at night. Made the reservation in real time as the hours passed, and the news didn't look good. Prepaid the room, but she was finally atc2am, able to get the last of two seats available out later that morning. No hotel stay needed. Have been on hold to cancel these reservations for now almost 3 hours!

I was in a bit of a panic as we hadn't booked a room for the same day. Robert was patient and helpful and searched until we found one that met all my panicked needs. Thank you for your professionalism!

I tried to find out about group rates for a reception in the area and didn't get anything useful. Still inquiring. I am currently deployed so I can't call 800 numbers

Booked a room for $253.30 a night and when I got my confirmation there was a 137.70 tax and recovery fee. I instantly requested a cancelation and refund because this amount was not disclosed, and they refused the refund but canceled the reservation saying they would send me a voucher instead. No customer service and hidden charges. Stay far far away
Tip for consumers:
stay away unless you like hidden fees

We tried to book online with no joy. Decided to call for a reservation with great joy. Neal responded to our request of having a room with a view. He gave us several options with amenities and a total cost. He showed professionalism with a sense of humor. We feel excited to be able to celebrate my birthday in a beautiful room on a beautiful property. Thank you.

I hate doing a lot of things online. I had a very bad experience in the past that has mad me extremely cautious! Carlos was very patient & did a great job of getting me a room! The high cost surprised me because online it was $210 & that included taxes!

I called the number associated with the hotel and did not understand that it transferred to a site that charges a $20 service fee.
The person was friendly and helpful but didn't disclose the fee. It only appeared in the email confirmation. Probably will cancel and save the $20.

I made reservations for tonight and she made them for tomorrow. After I asked for a refund she said she made a new reservation without telling me the amount made another reservation but I never received any information besides a refund request so now I'm not sure if I have a room reservation for tonight.

I have been a long time member of Marriott n this was the hardest reservation I have. I could. Not understand the accents of both first person n supervisor n then they wanted me to text in my credit card which I am not willing to do n one of the reasons I talk to people. He seemed unable to understand so I just hung up.
I have also found none of my direct booking on Marriott Bonvoy n trying to get a call. I have several reservations to make.

Scott did everything perfectly. He provided options. He had an easy demeanor. The whole experience was good. He is an excellent representative of your company. He should be looked at for promotion. Good employees are hard to find. Exceptional ones should be acknowledged.

Shalina was amazing. She had no rooms for us but looked and found me a room close by and booked it for me
We were very thankful as she was the only one who was helpful after trying 4 different places
Very appreciative

He went over and beyond to help me out and gave me an amazing experience. I would come back.I haven't even been in room yet but if the staff is friendly and helpful as Vandell I can't image how the staff would be.

Reservations were made for a hotel that did not have any rooms available. Cancelled in the correct timeline and still have not received a refund 4 days later. Have been calling and emailing nonstop and keep getting the run around. People on the phone say they can't help and every email just gets a response that we received your request, reply with any comments. TOTAL SCAM COMPANY! We contacted AMEX to file a dispute and have been refunded what they were trying to steal!
Tip for consumers:
That they are not reputable. It appears that you are going straight to the hotels website instead of searching like other travel websites. It is very deceptive.

Nothing, we reserved a room at a hotel that did not have any to sell. They sold us something that was not available to them.

I called an Allison was the one supposed to be helping me. Well she didn't. Because of her I thought I had a reservation at the extended stay America suites at 9000 Tinicum Blvd, Philadelphia, PA and she never confirmed it with my hotel and when I got to the hotel I had issues trying to get a room because they were completely out of rooms for the night and next few days. So she charged my credit card with a fee of over 400 dollars for me to show up, waste gas, and not receive my reservation. You shouldn't hire incompetent people. In fact you should fire her because I know if this happened to me from her behalf then it must had happened to other people she was "helping". She is not good at her job, quite the opposite. I am completely disappointed at Allison.

He booked me a reservation at a hotel that was over a hundred miles from where I was at. Then told me it was just a few miles to get there. I had been lost and it was after midnight when he did this. Now I'm broke down on I 75 waiting for AAA. I want a refund.

Jeannie was very helpful. She listened to my needs and was able to accommodate my request. I appreciated that she also notated in the hotel reservation notes that I needed first floor due to a bad knee.

She answered the phone and I could hardly understand her. I'm not sure why I could hear every breath she took but it was like she was blowing into the phone mic. I also think she was eating. I honestly was discussed with the experience and did not want to talk to her at all. So I said goodbye and hung up.

Was trying to reach the front desk of residence inn in Pasadena... both times I explained that I may have been connected to the wrong number and asked how I could get a hold of the front desk and both times, they strait up hung up on me

I called at 3:00 am to request a room to get some rest as I am on a cross country trip from Texas to Boston with my two pet dogs. Scott told me there was a pet friendly room available at the Days Inn at Wyndham. When I arrive the guy at the front desk was very rude and told me I could check in until 3 pm later in the afternoon! He also informales me I would be charged additional fees for my dogs. When I called for customer support the guy on the line was condescending, told me he was unable to transfer my call to a manager or supervisor and that a "review" would need to be conducted before they could determine if the would return the $103 charged to my bank account for a room I could even use.
Worst. Experience. EVER!

I called to ask if the hotel I booked was non- smoking and he refused to tell me, and referred me to the online description. After going back and forth he said this is not a help line and he didn't care if he was rude.
Totally not helpful and will never call again!

Thank you
It was very comforting getting someone to help and someone that didn't mind taking the time to work me. I felt very lost when booking for the 1 Inn were quickly booked up. Kellie was very helpful in helping me find other reservations at a nearby inn. I am very grateful and thankful. Thanks again Kellie

I am not happier with the service of this company or the way they treat are military service employees. When I ask to speak with a manager I was hung up on. As a rewards customer I will not be returning to your company

We are frequent guests at the Springhill Suites in Columbia MD and have always been extremely satisfied with everyone from making reservations thru check out.
I spoke with Opare to make a reservation and cannot believe that she is a reservations representative for the Springhill Suites. She needs extensive retraining. She was rude and hung up on me. I did call back and had a very pleasant experience with Jada. We have our reservation and are very appreciative for her professionalism. It's people like Jada that makes an Opare experience forgettable. Thank you Jada.

We were 10 hours out and needed to make a reservation for our two-day trip home from a great Florida vacation. We had stayed at a Country Inn & Suites in Chattanooga before and requested the same place. We knew it had a Cracker Barrel in front of it. Juan found it for us. Great job.

I called in with the one 800 number to make a reservation for a hotel in Zachary Louisiana. The hotel reservation person was excellent. She made small chitchat, which I did like actually made it a pretty good day to talk to somebody over the phone.
