Check‑in, ID and minimum age policy
The official property listing shows a minimum check‑in age of 21; this applies to the registered booking adult who checks in, not to children staying with that guest. Some third‑party sites list 18 as the check‑in age, so confirm directly with the hotel if you have questions.
All guests must present a photo ID and a credit card at check‑in. The front desk operates 24 hours a day, which helps if you arrive late or need to add a family member to the reservation.
- Minimum check‑in age (registered guest): 21 (per Marriott; confirm with hotel if needed)
- Children of all ages are welcome; guests 18+ are charged as adults
- 24‑hour front desk; photo ID and credit card required at check‑in
