Balcony was large and furniture was nice. ...

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Marathon Florida Keys
The room was great. The bathroom huge, the living room the size of an oversized apartment. The best part was the balcony. We had a waterfront auite, and the balcony was incredible. A full, waparound porch style balcony that added immensely to our stay.
