Courtyard by Marriott Petaluma Sonoma County

Don’t add crappy breakfast to your stay. They would not refund my $11.00

Always enjoy our stay here.

Did not like bar being closed both nights.

The bed was very comfortable, and the place was very clean

The room was bright and cheery and the bed was great. The room was spacious and modern and very comfortable.

The Internet was spotty and there was almost no hot water.

As soon as we got into the room we noticed the air-conditioning had not been on as it was very warm in the room. We went to put our food in the refrigerator and the refrigerator was broken. Went into the bathroom and noticed the towel on the hook was thrown onto the hook and had purple stains all over it. I asked to be moved to another room. The young lady at the desk brought up keys to another room. We were happy at first because the air conditioning had been turned on and the refrigerator was working. I went to take a shower and noticed hair clippings and soap residue all over the ledge where the containers were sitting. I’ve never had to clean a bathroom before using it. Makes me wonder what else they didn’t clean in the room. My daughter and I had already unpacked all our clothes and it was getting too late to change hotels. We stay at Marriott’s all the time and have never had problems like this.

We liked being able to switch our room to the side of the hotel that is away from freeway noise, where it was VERY quiet. The bed was large and exceptionally comfortable. We sat comfortably on the little sofa quite often and liked the size of the room. Although this was the most expensive place we've stayed in the Petaluma area (we go there often), it was also the best. Free parking is wonderful.

We didn't like the way the heavy bathroom door swung closed by itself all the time. We especially like to leave doors ajar in the middle of the night so we can easily find our way around in the dark. We would also prefer a shower with a door that closes rather than a part-way glass panel (which would keep in the heat). And we think washcloths should be provided automatically, not by special request. The location was a little hard to find, but once we knew the way, it was ok. I never found a room safe -- none was advertised. In rooms of this quality, we expect to find a safe.
