We also heard the same negative comments about the Marriott when we stayed right next door in the Radisson Cable Beach in Aug '99. Guests there were disappointed in decor, food, lack of beach on the property and the shabbiness of the casino. It's too bad things haven't changed, because I have lots of Marriott points and was hoping to take the kids to the Bahamas soon. Guess we'll bypass this dump. Thanks for the heads-up.
