Quick overnight stay.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. TV remote battery went out and they quickly responded. Enjoyed our quick overnight stay while attending K State graduation ceremony.

Great stay for the price
Great stay for the price. This was a marriott that is now run by the brand it is now. It still has many of the upscale features. I would definitely recommend and stay again.

Game Stay
We stayed after a K-State Football game. We checked in before the game and the desk agent was very professional, but the desk setup was not very efficient. He had to go to another room to get printouts for us to sign. The breakfast on Sunday morning was not elaborate, but met our needs. My only complaint is there was a cleaning odor in our room that gave me a sore throat.

Not sure why this was such a good rate. The same rate as a rundown roadside motel. This is a nice place. VERY quiet on a Sunday night. Right next to the walmart - walked to it for provisions. Clean, comfy bed, cable channels, nice hot shower with great pressure.

Clean and spacious, plenty of closet space and drawers. Definitely need better lighting in the parking lot. A couple of signs in the parking lot stating that Management is not responsible for damage or theft to personal vehicles, not exactly what I wanted to see in parking my 2024 vehicle. This place has a lot of potential if the outside environment is upgraded. Also, on their website it said Free breakfast, but it was a paid breakfast🙁

This was a work trip. The surrounding area is not so good by the looks of it. I had noticed young people and loud music outside across the street when I went inside. Overnight, my truck was robbed of everything except the generator and the contents of the locked compartments. When I inquired about cameras, they said there weren’t any where I parked. Wasn’t worth the period of time to file a report with nothing evidence or witnesses.

Whenever I come to JC, I choose the Marriott. I appreciate the rooms are always clean, staff are super friendly and helpful, and the location is close to some necessity shopping and some decent dining options. Thank you for providing a place to stay that is comfortable. The outside seating is wonderful!
