I was in Tulsa for a week of work, which means I am away during the day, and work some hours from the room in the evening. In the past year over several visits I stayed in pretty much all Marriot hotels in downtown, so my review is written in comparison. I will start with the good things The building, a remodeled city hall from the 70's is unique and interesting. Everyone at the front desk staff were great: efficient, helpful and friendly. The room was spacious, modern, clean and everything in the room worked well (shower, A/C, wifi, TV was fine though a bit aging), nice view form the 10th floor. Personally I like the fact they always have drip coffee available at the lobby. The hotel is apparently pet friendly - so quite a few people with pets. Why it is not ideal for business travel, since the hotel was not great in the things that are most important for me when I travel for work: LOCATION: This is at the edge of downtown, probably the worst spot so almost nothing within quick walk, compared to other places - coffee shop/food places/any nice walking destination. Downtown Tulsa has some nice areas, this is not one of them. For people working remotely, there aren't any quick places to jump out to pickup coffee or get lunch or a convenience store (there is a hotel convenience store with some ok stuff). to get to the active and nice part of downtown you have to walk longer. Single perk of location is that it is next door to the Tulsa central library which is beautiful, modern, open 9-9 and is a great place to relax with a cup of coffee or even work from there (they have desks, WIFI, and even a waterfall giving a very relacing ambiance!) PARKING No free street parking (only time I was not able to park in the street in all my visits), so you have to pay for parking. The area is too sketchy to leave your car outside anyway. Access to the hotel is through a locked gate, that while protecting your car, make it more difficult to visit. BREAKFAST Breakfast is not included. As platinum status with Marriot I was eligible for ”breakfast voucher” but that was only $10, not enough for more than just a small breakfast sandwich. The selection was limited, but the food was fine. GYM gym was quite limited Other things room was a bit aging with chipped surface on the bed headboards. No Netflix with the non-smart-TV.
