I reserved a room with a Roll in shower. When I arrived the fully trained staff didn't even know which rooms had them and it took an hour or manager to finally offer an available room but just for one night. We opted to cancel the reservation and leave

The reservation was for an executive room but to accommodate the mobility accessibility we were moved to a room where our need was met. We were offered breakfast for 2, free use of club house which we did not use and free parking for disable. We were thankful for the trade off and hopeful that we made the right choice and we were offered the best from the Bethesda Marriot Poons Hill MD.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was fine, certainly met expectations in this price range. Very good fitness center with many machines. The one main issue that brings the score down was the elevators. There are too few for the size of the place, and some didn't seem to always be working; there were several times when I had to wait 5 minutes, or just take the stairs to avoid waiting.

the resturant was exspensive, food was delicious, service wasn't great. decided hat having to buy breakfast at the resturant was going to be to exspensive so we found an iHop. Paying for parking was a bit much and it was difficult to get in and out of the hotel. the tickets didn't work well to open the gate. Oh and I reserved a hearing/mobility room/tub I was hoping it just had a shower it didn't. Mobility issues generally mean tubs are not a good fit.
