This is 3rd time staying here I believe. I have a Marriott discount because my son is employee, so I’ve stayed at almost all the Marriotts here in Reno/Sparks/Tahoe. Very often. So when I say this property is my favorite hotel in the area, that’s saying something. It’s fantastic here! I work down street a few miles and we’re expecting bad snow, so I’m here next 4 nights. I have 1-BR with full kitchen. Drove 2 minutes over to Target and loaded up groceries. Made myself a steak and mashed potatoes tonight, they had all cookware plates utensils etc. How cool is that at a hotel? My room is new and clean, sofa rocks with big front section. Legends Bay ****** is right across the street, and while I’m not big gambler, I do plan on grabbing a meal or 2 there. Even with heavy snow should be ok. There’s also all kinds of shopping there, I plan on checking out Sat. I did my laundry tonight. Checked out pool and hot tub, nice and well taken care of. Alex checked me in tonight and was a nice young person and great first impression. Chey helped me out last time I was here, also was great. Thank you RI Sparks! You guys have a wonderful hotel and your people are awesome. I highly recommend friends!!
