Courtyard Dayton-University of Dayton

We were in town for a baseball tournament. The hotel is very clean. The lobby, restaurant area, and our room were all very clean. The people working the front desk on Friday afternoon were very nice and gave us good restaurant recommendations! The hot tub was not working and was kinda green which my son was very disappointed about but not a big deal. The pool was overflowing with water and made the pool deck very slick. The hallways had a VERY strong **** smell!! It did not come in to our room but I did hear a woman at the front desk have to move rooms because of the smell. All in all in was a nice hotel and if in the area I would stay there again.

I was extremely disappointed with the hotel facility as there were several days while we were there, the hotel had no hot water. I had a large group of people booked there of over 50 people covering several nights and received numerous complaints. Many people left during their stay and relocated to another hotel. Very tough to recommend to a group

This is an awesome location under 10 minutes from downtown right on the river. The hotel is very dated and needs a refresh in the rooms. All the ice machines were broken. The night staff was very professional, but the people working in the morning were not. AC was excellent and had great water pressure.

Nasty. Killed a roach in my bathroom, along with there being hair in the shower when we first got there. Tub took a 30 min to drain. Beds were horrible and hallway carpets disgusting and full of stains. Needs a major overhaul and deep cleaning

Have been staying at this hotel for several years for an annual event. Rates for the event weekend next year are published and it is almost triple the normal rate. How can they get away with that, it is absurd. Should not be allowed to rip off their guests.

Great staff. Very clean. A large and nice lobby/lounge area. Lots of beer choices. Good coffee. Nothing to complain about. Very handy off 75 and the gas stations close by. Easy to get to lots of U of Dayton restaurants. Did not use the amenities.

Tried 2 different rooms on 2 different floors, couldnt stomach the odor and moisture in there. The hotel is not up to standard and likely caused me to not feel well after spending just 20 minutes in the room. Had the balcony door open to get airflow but wasn’t helping. DO NOT STAY HERE… new Marriott a mile away is 100% better, they got me in same-day and I regret even booking at courtyard at all now that I know this hotel is here. Hope this helps the next person avoid a similar issue.

Unfortunately, other reviews are correct with respect to a year over a year decline at this property. I was with a group of six staying at this hotel. One room had no AC working properly and the night staff couldn’t figure out how to move him to a new room. Multiple rooms had drainage issues in the sink and bathtub, while carpet stains could be seen and the ice machine was making noise consistently, suggesting a plumbing problem. The ceiling above the pool looks like it’s about to collapse. Amenities in the room are not up to standard. I know Sean is working hard as the manager, and there was a noticeable difference come Monday morning from what we saw on Sunday. But this was definitely not up to par for courtyard by Marriott, and that’s disappointing

I would stay far away from this hotel. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE I booked my stay through my credit card travel using some points. At first everything was great, very nice and polite. We booked a suite because we have 2 kids under 3 and need the extra space. 1st room - room 334 - got in it and situated, after about 40 minutes noticed a dripping sound and found it to be a long stain line in the ceiling in the bedroom. I thought no problem I’ll call the front desk and they’ll switch us, which they did into the room above this room. 2nd room - room 434 - in it for about 20 minutes and noticed a ton of tiny ants crawling all over carpet which were semi hard to see because the carpet is black but we had noticed them crawling on our two kids under 3. Felt very uneasy after this, called front desk and said they had no more suites and I requested to have two adjacent rooms to accommodate my booking for a suite which they said they can’t do, and I was being polite by giving them a third chance. At first Dawn was nice and then turned very rude towards my wife. I definitely do not plan to stay at another courtyard Marriot again.
