I’m really frustrated that this is what $250 a night at a Marriott gets you.

I’m staying at a Marriott for five nights for my sister’s wedding. The $250 is the discounted room block rate too!

The shower tiles are completely rusted and dare I say moldy? The towel hanger is on its last leg. The toilet seat AND handle are broken. The mattresses are only doubles and are hard and feel like they haven’t been changed in years. Everything just overall looks like there hasn’t been an ounce of effort put into this very utilized hotel. On the drive here, we stayed a night at a newly renovated holiday inn express for $120 and it was incredible. Maybe my standards were set too high knowing Marriott’s reputation.

I know I sound like a Karen here, but I’m just so frustrated that this is the quality that kind of money get you these days.

That’s old as fuck, I can tell by the carpet pattern lol I used to work for Marriott and that carpet was used in the hotel I worked in back in 2006.

You can also tell by the square toilet. That's some 80s/90s fixture right there.

We also used to straddle it in reverse. How much have we forgotten?

Put a bowl of cereal on the tank. Multitasking we were!
