An uneasy feeling

Liked: The location is excellent (except for the rooms that overlook a busy street and which are not soundproofed from the noise). The beds are awesome. Breakfast was quite OK for american standards - for European standards, it was so so.
Disliked: My colleague's credit card was charged in advance with an amount considerably bigger than the total price. The staff did little to nothing to resolve this issue. My credit card had seen several smaller charges. Even to this day they are still listed as "on hold" even though my stay has finished 3 days ago and the bill has been paid by a separate balance payment. (It almost seems like Marriott and/or the hotel are making some money operations in the background.) The front desk staff could not explain the bill. All of the above is UNACCEPTABLE.Also, room service did not vacuum clean the floor. The room could not be properly ventilated to get fresh air. The air conditioning machine is very loud and its connections to outside are not soundproofed. Therefore, outside traffic noise penetrated loudly into the room.Two days into our stay, the WiFi service stopped working. On our first report to the staff the issue did not get fixed. After another day and half, on my second request, an IT member called to my room and we resolved the issue in 10 minutes.

We had an amazing stay...

Liked: The room was spacious and comfortable. We loved the location as it was close to so many restaurants and was a publix next door. The heated pool was fantastic and the customer service was great .
Disliked: The bathroom doors were awkward and didn’t lock.
