We booked an ocean view king room for approx $500 per night over the city view, only to have at best partial view (needed to go out onto the balcony to see the ocean. On arrival we were offered a city view room as our room want ready we opted to wait and get the ocean view room and went to the pool for a couple of hours before was ready. Only to find that it was not a ocean view room. When i checked the room i was told that it was classified as an ocean view room, i restated that on booking it did not say partial view and the photo's were ocean view and that it should be corrected as I wouldn't have booked the room if it had stated partial view. On checking with there manager they offered a $100 discount on the night (far less than the $500/night difference in rooms (as a gesture of good will and i was not looking for a discount, only raising that it wasn't as described or intended) Also note, i was not aggressive or rude, only want to check if there was a mix-up and get the price adjusted to the correct rate. Although i was disappointed in the room, the service and facilities are what you would expect but I will not stay with JW Marriott again.
