EXCELLENT PLACE TO STAY!!!!!! Very accommodating. Our room was super spacious. The continental breakfast was the best we ever had without going to a restaurant. The staff was always on par. VERY CLEAN AND MAINTAINED.

We had a very nice stay in the two bedroom suite. We appreciated the convenient parking, the cleanliness of the room, daily housekeeping, dishes available in the kitchen, wonderful hot breakfast each morning, beautiful courtyard with fire pit, nice pool, basketball court, and delicious cookies every day. The beds were not very comfortable, but that wouldn’t deter us from staying there again. It was an overall excellent stay for our family of 5.

I stayed for 3 days and unfortunately I was close to the pool and the basketball court, i couldn’t sleep for the noise and that made me not enjoy. The rooms can use a lil updating as the furnitures appear old. The location was close to everything I needed

Disappointed in the Brand at this Location
There was no sign in front of the lobby, so I drove around the parking lot twice before seeing the small 130 sign and found check-in. Thank goodness that it was light outside. The door to Bldg 2 that I was told to go in, didn't work and I had to use the side door. The buildings are not secured (campus style) which didn't make me feel safe. The room was as expected and breakfast food was good. I will not stay here again.

Thank you for your review. I do apologize that you were not informed about parking. We have been charging for over a year now. It states on the brand website as it should state on the 3rd party site as well. I will look into it.

Wonderful proximity to the airport, and it’s a straight shot on I595 to the artery on which the hotel is located. Within 2 miles of 3 major banks, multiple fast food and sit down restaurants, major retail malls mid and high end, Walgreens Pharmacy and a Whole Foods grocery. Next door to a gas station. Spacious studio, large bathroom with good shower pressure, rocking A/C, television and kitchen with all the necessities. All at a great daily rate. My only negative is that the access door to the building I stayed in takes too long to self-close to guarantee security.

Residence Inn was really nice and convenient. I love the fact that it was well kept and the customer service was a plus. In addition to being well kept the property was also close in distance to alot of shopping and dinning places. Definitely would recommend and book again.
