"This was a really cute place to stay. Only complaint I have is our bathroom was incredibly small and slightly dirty still and the beds had others peoples hair in them which is pretty off-putting. I’m not super grossed out bc i just assume the mop left things behind or the hair just got tangled up in the linens bc of the washing machine, but I can see other people having a big issue with this. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay. The pool was great, the decks were so cool to fish off and see all the jelly fish. A great property with a lot of potential."

Courtyard by Marriott Faro Blanco Resort, Marathon Florida Keys

8/10 Good
"Staff was very pleasant. But the stay was not cheap. And I have two "issues". First - We had a breakfast plan with the room and we were given 2 $25 vouchers (1 each) for the two days we stayed. When I viewed the initial bill, we were billed $50 for breakfast on the first day, even though we used the vouchers. The hotel staff removed that charge when I brought it up to them, but it shouldn't have been there in the first place. Second issue - We arrived around 2 pm on Sunday and left around Noon on Tuesday. Parking was $20 per day. When I viewed the final bill, we were charged for 3 days of parking, even though we spent less than 48 hours at the hotel. Yes, the car was in the lot one full day and part of 2 other days, but I have NEVER been charged for 3 days parking at ANY HOTEL EVER when I spent just two nights in the hotel. Generally, parking follows the room charge - 2 days room = 2 days parking. I think that is really poor given that this is an expensive resort managed by a major hotel chain."
