Quick Take: It is a classic, slightly corporate Marriott that nails the basics, but the nickel-and-diming for Wi-Fi and breakfast feels outdated.
Reviewed by @krissyalyssax3: My stay at the Marriott Melville was incredibly smooth. The room had a great workspace, the bathroom felt really fresh and modern, and I loved taking a dip in the indoor pool to decompress. It's a solid, reliable spot if you're traveling for work.
