Courtyard By Marriott

We were pretty happy with the price of the room we reserved, it was spacious enough and clean. I was disappointed that there was not a microwave or hairdryer in our room. However, there’s a Starbucks café in the lobby which I’ve never seen before in a hotel. In fact, the whole lobby area is pretty nice. My favorite feature though was the balcony. Being able to sit outside and relax, and get some fresh air, was nice after a long drive.

I stayed here two nights on a weekend. The first night was good, the room was clean and quiet. Found out the next morning breakfast isn’t complimentary… I ended up driving back through the area the following night so I checked back in to the hotel. I was placed on the other side of the hotel where I had a different experience than the night before. I could hear my neighbors until around 2 in the morning and apparently there is some kind of large generator or AC unit or something near the building that is pretty loud. I would have given four stars after my first night, but after my second I am going with three. I know this is Fairfield so I understand the rooms being pricey but I’m not sure I got my money’s worth.

Decent courtyard location. I rated it average since there was no complimentary breakfast and the shower head in my room could not be adjusted. Otherwise, it’s okay.

Nice property, comfortable beds, standard facilities. No free breakfast, which is a negative. Bistro on site with sandwiches pub fare w/​liquor, which is a nice touch. Outback and Applebee’s next door. Enjoyed our over night stay.

Wanted a nice place to stay while passing through. Did not have a reservation. Front desk service was excellent and timely, room was very nice and clean, and the bed… OMG! I want one of these. So comfy.
I am kinda spoiled, I guess. For the class of hotel, I expected breakfast available. I was sadly mistaken. They do have a bistro bar to get some food if you do not desire to foray out to find any but don’t offer any kind of breakfast, not even Continental. But there are a few restaurants close by if you do want to get out. They even have a small place to pick up snacks but did not use it.
I would recommend this place, just be aware of the food situation.

Stayed at several courtyards and always had a good experience. Found the staff rude and not helpful at all at this one. I would stay next door at the other hotel.

On our way home from the beach, we stopped here after a long day in the car. The lobby was modern and sleek. There is an indoor pool and a (very) small workout space. Outside, there seemed to be areas to relax and unwind including a outdoor fire pit. The room itself was a good size and included a pull out sofa bed. The issue I had with the room was jn the bathroom. Upon arrival, I noticed hair on the floor. Soon after, I also noticed black mold growing around the caulking in the tub and in the sink. Normally, I eould have asked for another room but, we were very tired and had to get our 2 year old to bed. When I went to take a shower in the AM, the plug would not stay up and the water quickly filled up the bath tub. I had to bend over and hold the plug up so that the water would drain and hubs could take a shower. After a long day of driving and 3+ hours to go with a cranky toddler, this was the last thing I wanted to deal with. Although Marriott did attempt to resolve this issue after the fact, I would still not stop here again.

Nice place to stay and a typical Marriott. I do miss the complimentary breakfast, but for a 1-​night stay it isn’t terrible. If you are staying more than a night it could add up. Room are fresh… I’d stay here again.

Very similar to other Courtyards, caterers more towards business travelers and it was a business trip for my husband.
Room was nice, roomy and clean. Our room had a balcony which I enjoyed while my husband was out working during the day.
Lobby is comfortable.
The ladies that worked in the Bistro in morning were great, helpful and friendly. I sat in a little both turned on the little tv that was right in my booth and had breakfast. A lot of business people in lobby working or meeting but I did not feel like we were right on top of each other.
I had no problems with wifi.
My husband got done with his business a half day sooner than he planned, and we decided to go home. Wonderful lady at front desk did a late check out for us and we only got charged for two nights instead of three. The room was being paid by my husbands work so we weren’t too worried if she couldn’t do that but they did and that goes to the great customer service provided not just by this Courtyard but from the Marriott brand.
We will stay here again if we are in Beckley for business or personal travel.
Also many restaurants within a walk or quick drive and very lose to interstate.

Actually ended up here after another place nearby goobered our reservation, so we were quite lucky in my opinion. This courtyard is extremely comfortable and very accomodating. The lobby is a bit small, but it opens up to a suprisingly stylish dining area with plenty of seating. There is also a fab sitting room complete w/​flat screen, public computers and a bar; very cool! Our room was ample in size and accomodations; the beds are VERY comfy. One plus is the awesome water pressure in the shower which is an oft underappreciated feature of any hotel. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will visit again when in the area; it’s nice to have a home away from home you enjoy while traveling.
The only bummer I have to report is that our room keys had been turned off 3 hours before check-​out time. Usually just an inconvenience, but after stopping by the desk to correct the problem the nice lady promptly re-​activated our cards… without asking our name… or for ID… YIKES! Major safety no-​no!

We travelled north to MI and back south to NC and stayed here both ways. We were very pleased with our stays. The first night went so well we made arrangements to stop here again on our return trip. The rooms were both very clean, bedroom area and bath area. Beds were comfortable and temperature was perfect. Both nights a portable crib were provided as soon as we arrived.
Location was very convenient to the WV turnpike, and to several restaurants– Applebee’s, McD’s, and Outback among other local choices.
The second night I used the fitness room and it was very adequate for it’s smallish but appropriate size.

Lives up to what you expect from a Courtyard. Clean rooms, nice lobby, friendly staff.

Beckley, West Virginia
Instead of stopping in a popular travel location Charleston, West Virginia, for a good night’s rest, just 50 miles South is a town called Beckley.
When looking at hotels, three basic things come to mind, the emotional response to the design and cleanliness, the quality of the staff attitude and cleanliness.
There are many motels to choose from while driving to a vacation destination, but we stopped here because of previously good experiences with Courtyard.
They were remodeling when we arrived, but the concierge put us in a recently updated room.
It may be the case that the walls may not be perfectly square to meet the window treatments, or that the building may not be too far from the ten other hotels and motels in the area, but as soon as you walk in to the lobby, you can tell that they are trying to «step up» their game, and it works.
The lobby includes a dark wood business computer nook for quickly checking your email or printing a boarding pass. They also have an open air business center where you can sit and review your emails and plan out your next destination. In the distance from the front desk is a breakfast bar that is modern, clean and inviting. Between the check-​in area and food bar is a sitting area that is inviting for mornings or evenings.
The entire feel inside is like a spa.
They have a small workout room with fresh clean towels, a complete set of dumbbells, treadmills and exercise bike — all new.
The room included wheat grass wallpaper, matching painted window treatments, modern desk/​dresser combo in stained wood, appropriate art work patterned towels and even a high-​end shower head with included curved shower curtain rod.
If they keep up the cleanliness, quality of customer service and new upgrades, this can be a great destination for many years. I’m definitely returning.
My compliments to the design people who came up with the Courtyard interior upgrades.

This hotel is conveniently located right off the exit, near a variety of restaurants including Applebee’s, Outback Steakhouse, Hooters, etc.
The lobby of this hotel is REALLY nice and new looking. slightly deceiving.
The rooms were decent but did not look as new as the fancy lobby. The mattress and pillows were lumpy and not as comfortable as I expected for the Courtyard by Marriott. Especially at over $ 110/​night in a small town in West Virginia! However, we read Expedia reviews for other hotels in the area and apparently this hotel is the best one.
The AC unit in our room stopped working in the middle of the night and our room became sweltering hot. Luckily, we only stopped at this place for one night.
Best thing about this hotel is the free wifi! We didn’t use the pool but it looked pretty nice and clean.
