Courtyard by Marriott Nassau Downtown/Junkanoo Beach
Overall , I enjoyed my stay. The property is under construction so the smell of the hallway and room bothered my mother. I called front desk and the room was changed promptly. Claude, the concierge was excellent, guided us well and was extremely helpful throughout our stay. I would stay again.
