    Paid $175 for.... * Rude and unhelpful staff…read more * No parking spot available when we arrived. We had to leave and come back an hour later to find a spot. We did ask the front desk and they just kinda shrugged us off. (We were early) * Unusable shower due to water pressure or broken shower couldn't tell. (Room 130 reported to front desk) * Two broken lamps in the room. One just flickered and the other one just didn't work. (Reported to front desk) * Yellow sheets (at least I knew they were bleached) * Towels, washcloths were sparse. * Only surface level clean Hotel. * They stuck us in a handicapped room instead of what we booked. This hotel does not deserve the name Marriott.

    Came for a 1 day conference so we stayed just one night, staff were pleasant and seemed to know…read morewhat they were doing but they only had one bartender/server working during dinner (with a little help from 2 guys who needed to be told everything more than once) and one server in the morning for breakfast service. The menu states there's a buffet but there was not. Two members of my team ordered steak and eggs and waited an hour before they got served. One asked for decaf and was told it wasn't going to happen after waiting 30 min. Rooms were okay, we had 5 rooms total, 3 on the 4th floor, 1 on the 3rd and 1 on the 2nd. All of them were different. Pool hours posted said 8am to 10pm, but when we were using it, the female bartender came out and asked us to finish up at 9:55 stating the pool closed at 9 and they were turning the lights off. I can understand having shorter hours than other hotels because some of the lower floor rooms look out onto the pool area. Work out space had more machines than most. Conference center is across the parking lot. Bathrooms needed attending to more than they were. Microphone mishaps during most of the sessions I was in.

    If you're looking for a swanky place to go in Kalamazoo, SkyDeck is your place. I always feel like…read morethe drinks are a good $2 more than the other bars in the Entertainment District, and there's only the 1 bar so you may have to wait if it's busy. Oh, but it's never been busy when I've gone. Background music was playing, and yes you can get a view of the city, but there's a lot of cranes and building going on now, and you're only really 7 stories up. I wish they'd move the smoking section (or get rid of it altogether) since you have to walk through a cloud of smoke to get to the bathrooms...

    Upon moving to Kalamazoo, Skydeck took somewhat of a mythical status in my mind. Who wouldn't want…read moreto live it up on the tallest bar in Kzoo? The fact that you can't see it's layout from the ground floor lends to the allure. All this is to say that I created a legend in my head that sadly wasn't true. Skydeck was interesting, fun for a night, and not much more. Perhaps it's for this reason that I gave it an average rating. But I also think that there were a few flaws regarding the space and I'll lay them out here. First and foremost, you pay a premium to be in this space, both in the form of a cover ($10, nothing insane) and an apparent tariff on the drinks (maybe it's handling fees for hauling it all up so high?). Either way, you should expect to be a bit gouged for cash. Not all of the drinks are insane, but mixed drinks are pricey, and some of their "signature" drinks top $12. Now, initially, this might seem like a fair trade: a bit extra for high quality drinks and a higher quality view. But here's the rub: it's a small space, it's packed, and the edge seats go first. For me and my group to enjoy the breathtaking view of Kalamazoo, we would have to stand or share tables. It's difficult to blame them for being popular. That being said, I don't really feel like we received the main feature of the venue. A friend of mine put it sagely: it's a great date spot, or celebration, but you don't go their to drink. You go there for the experience. Therefore, this won't become one of my "regular spots." Here are some positives to end on: -Amazing view of the city -Great ambiance, especially at night -Wonderful service -Elevator!

We enjoyed two flights of beers and we are very appreciative that you offer more than just IPAs! We had the chicken tacos and the blackened shrimp tacos and both were absolutely fantastic!

My husband had their Michigan Honey Amber. We had their signature appetizers, Bavarian pretzels and Beer cheese. The pretzels were bite-sized and paired with a significantly larger portion of beer cheese. The beer cheese is house-made dip and is creamy and infused with one of their craft brews. My husband had the blackened shrimp tacos. The tacos are packed with well-seasoned blackened shrimp and a refreshing slaw. The tacos were served on a blend of corn and flour tortillas, which were sturdy enough to hold up perfectly against the generous, packed fillings. Latitude 42 also operates its own micro-distillery, producing a signature Bourbon Whiskey, Gins and Rums, which are sold on site. The menu is extensive and offers a variety of handhelds, pizza and seafood options. There were many families while we were there. Overall, food and drinks were very good.
