Courtyard by Marriott

My family and I stayed here on vacation. It’s a very comfortable hotel. The staff is super helpful and friendly. It’s clean. The pool and gym are great. We all loved it! I would definitely recommend it and we will stay her the next time we’re in town!!!

Very nice, clean, affordable hotel. Best customer service I’ve ever had in the NYC area!

Pretty good toilet paper by hotel standards.
Al was a nice guy.

I was married in August and used the Courtyard by Marriott as my hotel of choice for my guests. I was blown away at how amazing the staff was. There was a small snafu in a room we booked for our brunch the next day, however the staff went above and beyond in making alternate arrangements for me and my guests.
The hotel was beautiful and I loved the bistro in the lobby. The staff at the Courtyard was truly amazing and I am so grateful for all that they did for me and my guests. Thank you!

What a clean, spacious, well-​managed hotel. I spent a night here for a business meeting and had the opportunity to overnight in a bedroom as well as spend two days in a conference space.
My co-​workers and I arrived before rooms were cleaned and ready for assignment, but the desk clerk allowed us all to go through the check-​in process so we could quickly pick up keys after our meeting concluded. Very nicely done.
The room was spacious with a large bathroom, two queen beds generously spaced from each other, and plenty of light coming through the window. Not the most beautiful of views, but this hotel is for convenience of location not beauty. Beds were comfortable, everything was clean. TV, hot water, and thermostat all worked perfectly.
My roommate and I were each given a complimentary beer or wine to enjoy at the bar which was a nice perk. There’s an indoor pool though not terribly large. The fitness room offered 2 – 3 treadmills and ellipticals, a stationary bike, one bench and free weights up to about 45 or 50lbs. Water cooler, towels and cleaner wipes available.
Conference space was simple but comfortable. There were windows in the room which is a nice victory, and staff was friendly about continually refilling our water pitchers.
Overall not the hotel I’m looking for on a vacation, but a perfect option if you have to make a trip to Long Island for work or want to be centrally situated there.

This hotel is only a few years old. It is well maintained and clean. It features a roomy lobby with a bar area, restaurant area and a charming fireplace to sit by.
The rooms are comfortable and clean. No odd smells or noises to complain of during my stay. Didn’t are any bugs or anything concerning. Room service is not offered. If you have pets you will want to stay at their other property across the parking lot which is pet-​friendly.
I only ate breakfast in the restaurant which offered a paid buffet breakfast. The offerings were basic… Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles, cereal, fruit, yogurt, bagels, and beverages. Honestly, I feel that this should have been complimentary.
The staff seemed friendly and knowledgeable. Although I did find myself standing unnoticed for about 10 minutes upon arrival. Not a big deal really.
The hotel is located within walking distance to Walmart. There are also several other shopping centers nearby with stores that include Starbucks, Petco, pizza, Chinese buffet, 2 movie theaters, bowling, and more. Some nearby restaurants include Houlihans, Chipotle, Panera, Chilis, as well as all of the usual fast food places. It’s also right next door to Republic Airport. Definitely a good location.
I would definitely stay here again. It was clean and convenient. Definitely recommended.

YASSSS! This is what Marriott is all about — making guests comfortable, welcomed, and at home. This Courtyard is all of that and more, and I look forward to the next time I have the chance to stay here!
Walking in, you enter a beautiful main floor with a lounge, a bar, a restaurant, and a staff that is more than willing to assist you with everything and anything you may need. I’m a Gold Elite member, so I’ve stayed at more Marriott locations than I can count. This location is one of the best, and it starts here on the main floor. When you get to your room, however, that’s where things get even better.
The rooms in this Courtyard are some of the nicest in which I’ve ever stayed. The décor is high-​end but not pretentious. It sets the mood for what is going to be a great stay. The desk area and closet space is beyond spacious, and it doesn’t take away from your living space. There are beautiful curved couches in every room that are stunning and comfortable. To be honest, I almost slept on it (I settled for a nap).
I settled for the nap, though, because the beds are so darn comfortable! Every time I stayed at this hotel, I was asleep within ten minutes and woke up the next morning not wanting to leave. That’s comfort at its finest and what one is looking for when they stay at any hotel, especially a Marriott.
Some other honorable mentions: the bar, the location, the ample parking, and the facilities throughout the hotel.
This Courtyard is everything and then some. Stay here, and you’ll never want to leave!

I arrived not knowing what to expect because I’ve stayed at some Courtyard Marriotts that were dumps. This one was clean, but what made my stay so pleasant was the staff. They were very accommodating of my requests (I had lots) and as an added bonus, I was able to schedule a free shuttle to take me to and from nearby businesses. The shuttle driver was exceptional and while it did arrive late one night for a pick up (they had a large number of requests for shuttle service), the hotel supervisor took the initiative to make it right. For me, the fact that they made the effort to apologize was a huge plus. I didn’t take advantage of everything they gave me, but the thought is what stands out in my mind and many establishments have lost that sense of hospitality and good customer service. For this Courtyard Marriott, I give 5 stars and thank them for a really enjoyable stay.

Just right on everything here. Enough elec outlets for all the stuff. Nice room, great bedding and tv. I would surely stay here again.

Originally scored at 1 star for a pretty miserable experience. This review has been edited.
I regret having to write this review of the Marriot. But I’d like to first state that all of the amenities, the rooms and construction are wonderful here. I’m writing this inside of my hotel room as we speak and it’s on par with all the other hotels I’ve stayed in.
After some digging, I actually recognize that this Hotel as a lot more expensive at 289 a night. Perhaps the hotel was making more money at some point in time. I got the room at the desk for 138 just walking in without a reservation.
It perceptively seems like it had all the makings of a great hotel.
Until you meet the staff.
The staff are lazy, unmotivated to appeal to their customers. Almost like they just hired the Wal-​mart staff less than a mile away. They’re untrained and unorganized, which tells me that they are perhaps «new».
I asked for a shuttle twice and they said they were going to send one out to me. The first was the LIRR 1.9 miles away, and the Cinema Multiplex. .. 0.7 miles away. We tipped the driver 20 $ on the trip to the Multiplex,
After fourty five minutes of waiting, I just got a cab each time. No calls or warnings. It’s almost as if they just don’t want to do it. Which is fine, just tell me
But don’t tell me that you’re sending me a shuttle, give me no estimate, and no warning.
And then call us out to ask us if we were the guests as we are coming in to try to scold us that their driver was waiting ten minutes, while we were standing like idiots in the cold for nearly an hour.
That’s not service. That’s just incompetence followed by irresponsibility.
The General Manager on the complimentary note on this desk says «Jay J Philipson», with the two front desk staff Robert and Jeff.
Jeff was the person to send out the second shuttle driven by Victor, who as I understand it has only been there for two days.
Robert seemed pretty Aces on the phone however, and regardless of being aggressively spoken to on the phone was clearly calm and courteous.
Sorry once again, but it just seems like staff here wasn’t trained or coached right. Not sure if that’s staff or the manager overseeing the staff. However, they don’t give me the feeling they remotely understand what service means.
Addendum:
It seems as if staff has paid attention to this, I got pretty hungry so I ordered some dominos but I wanted some Ice cream. Charles at the front desk said that my ice cream was on the house.
Ice cream and attention to detail is worth 2 stars to me. It should be to anyone who makes a hotel stay.
Addendum:
So, apparently without even any further mention of my problem was realized by Robert. After checkout we were waiting on our taxi and watching the news when he addresses us and apologized genuinely for our inconvenience. He then provided us with a discount and paid for our movie. Taking so many considerations that were certainly the definition of complimentary.
He even ran out to the taxi to give us our receipt and farewell.
Pretty impressive.
Great service isn’t necessarily defined by flawless service, but rather by what one does with its flaws. ヾ(¯￣)

The Courtyards are great. Given the outstanding level of hospitality here and the closeness to Republic Airport, I call the Farmingdale Courtyard the best place to stay and have a meeting along Long Island’s 110 Corridor.

The Marriott’s reservation system for weddings is horrible but this hotel was fantastic. The shuttle system works really well. They drove my drunk friends around all night and helped with transportation for 70 people to the rehearsal dinner. They also have flexible meal options for brunch that fit our wallets and their brunch is really, really good. The problem: They messed up some reservation issues– like a lot– because the online reserving code system stinks. They open up blocks of rooms 10 at a time and won’t do it automatically. So every time we got 10 people reserving rooms we had to call them to open up another set of 10. We had 70 rooms booked and we were calling them every day to open up room blocks. However, Breanna did a good job making up for it. Their reservation system is just bad. Their staff is great and dealt with a lot of BS from our wedding party and the other 2 that were there that weekend. My friends went skinny dipping in the pool and left the backyard a mess. They dealt with it really well. Another wedding party got into a fist fight (broken glass, blood, bride screaming– it was ugly) and their security was on it really quickly. So I would recommend this hotel but proceed with caution with the online reservation system for blocks of rooms.

Check in was fine, room was clean. Check out was good. It was about $ 100 a night, however the sheets were extremely ITCHY. They felt like sandpaper. Will not go back!

Great bar, clean rooms. Free breakfast, suites across the street good too. Laura behind the bar makes everyone feel at home!

I stayed at this place twice and I had no problem. The staff was friendly and the room was clean and very nice. A+++++++

Stayed here while in town for a Wedding. The rooms were clean and the staff were friendly. The lobby was nice and had a warm, inviting fireplace. While at the bar was served by the wonderful bartender, Laura. The morning breakfast buffet was very good, we had it twice. This is the 2^nd time I have stayed at this particular Courtyard by Marriott.

Nice place. Very functional. Staff was great. Good location. I travel a lot and would stay here again.

Stayed here for a wedding in the area last night (there were three weddings that booked rooms here)
First of all, the girls at the front desk told us there was no room on the shuttle and the only one available would be at 5pm (that was when the wedding started). we showed up at 4:20 and easily got a shuttle that barely anyone was on…
Next, the room… there were only two mirrors and they BOTH were in the bathroom. I always count on doing my makeup in the living room while my boyfriend is taking a shower… Nope!
The bathroom also didn’t have a fan, which meant I had to wait a while to actually do my hair/​makeup because it was too foggy and hot inside.
The air conditioner was incredibly loud at night… I woke up every time it came on. Needless to say, I barely got any sleep.
The walls are THIN. I could hear people outside the room and upstairs.
The pillows were so so ssooooo uncomfortable. I kept waking up because of the air conditioner and staying up because of the horrible rock hard pillows.
I thought Marriott hotels were supposed to be nice, I guess not. We would have been better off staying in a motel.

The room is clean and big. However, I was traveling for business and my wifi kept getting disconnected when I was trying to do work. I can’t imagine trying to do any sort of e-​conference without being disconnected. I also ordered from the lobby grill and they don’t do room service so I had to stop what I was doing and go downstairs to pick up my order.
It was also pretty loud during the night. I could easily hear through the walls.

This hotel is TERRIBLE. DO NOT stay here.
I put used towels on the bathroom floor and the housekeeper put all back on the hanger. I saw my hair and dirts on the towels. I had to ask the manager to have my used towels get replaced everyday.
One day, there was gum on my pillow and it got stuck on my hair and it was horrible. I knew it was not from me because I smell mint from gum and I don’t chew mint-​flavored gum. Besides, I didn’t even have any gum.
I still can’t believe what happened in that hotel.
