SpringHill Suites by Marriott Hotels in Greenville

We stayed here over the July 4th weekend. The hotel is in a great location and within walking distance to most downtown Greenville attractions. It is also co-located with a Residence Inn and was very busy, though the bustle generally didn't affect the service. When we arrived (after the scheduled check-in time of 4pm) our room wasn't ready, but the front desk (a Mr. Randolph) handled the delay professionally and refunded our parking due to the inconvenience. Once we checked in, the room was huge and very well appointed. The only downside to the stay involved the evening valet parking attendant who took 20-30 minutes to get our car despite there only being 2-3 retrieving cars and no guests checking in at the time. (In contrast the morning valet attendant was very quick, less than 5 minutes both times.) Although we didn't say anything, we heard from other guests that they had complained to the hotel management about the valet, and evidently the criticism had come back to him since he was surly when he brought our car and even surlier when we returned it late that evening. Apparently, he also decided to exact some petty revenge (or was absurdly careless) against us (and maybe against other guests who had complained) because the next morning, our bottle of hand sanitizer had mysteriously spilled all over the door console despite having the cap screwed on tightly the night before. Because the valet attendants are contractors rather than employees, there is little the hotel can do about them, but future guests should be forewarned. Otherwise, the hotel itself is great, and we will make this our go-to hotel for future trips to Greenville.
