- No Concierge Lounge. - Lobby is kind of small for the number of people using it. Not a lot of places to sit or work. - Very small work desks in the rooms. - Pocket doors from bedroom to bathroom sometimes rattle when A/C or heat kick in. - No free bottles of water in the rooms for Reward members. Lots of other Marriott hotels have this. Water is available at front desk, but you have to ask for it.

My husband and I stayed at the Marriott while attending a wedding in Downer's Grove. We stayed here because it was part of the hotel block that the couple booked for out of town guests and we received an excellent rate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Marriott and will likely stay there again if ever in Downer's Grove. In fact, we were married 3 months ago and honeymooned in Aruba at the Hyatt. We thought that the rooms at this Marriott were much nicer than our room at the Hyatt, which is saying something as we stayed at one of the "premier Hyatt facilities". Given our great experience at this Marriott, I think the Marriott will be our "go-to" hotel from here on out when we travel. In addition to the beautiful rooms - we were impressed by the hotel staff and their willingness to accommodate whatever needs we might have. We showed up at the hotel at 9am after taking a very early flight from Philly, and they were willing to check us into our room at that time (incredible!) so that we could get a little rest in before the wedding. When we checked out the next day at noon, we asked if we could stay a little while at the pool because our flight was not scheduled until later in the evening. Again they were incredibly accommodating giving us an extra hotel key so that we could have full access of the pool and fitness center facilities. We definitely look forward to returning to other Marriotts in the future and you have turned these typical Hyatt guests into Marriott people! Thanks Marriott Downers Grove

The pool facilities were wonderful, but we did notice that the pool floor (bottom of the pool inside) could use some work. They might have been looking into working on that as some construction guys were talking around the pool when we entered for some R&R before our flight.
