Went to a concert so stayed here to be able to walk to and from. This hotel is phenomenal- the only downfall was the quadruple price for the night since it was a concert night but hey, it is what it is right? Breakfast was tasty and good choices, the room was gorgeous and huge. I would never stay here again on a concert night due to the price but I would definitely stay here if I was traveling through.

A great time…

I love this hotel. I stay here once a year for a gathering of friends and a sports event, and have the best time. Clean, comfortable, and quiet! The breakfast is superior to competitors & others; it’s the quality and taste. Simply fantastic. Thank you.

I did not like the fact that my room had a shower with only one shower door on it, so I basically took a cold and Very uncomfortable shower. I called the front desk because I thought the shower door was missing or something and the girl told me that some of their rooms only have half a shower door for Aesthetic. I would never rent a room knowing it only had one shower door and my shower would be wide open like that. I also found rose petals all along the side of my bed so someone was there for Valentine's Day doing something I don't even want to think about while I had my grandchildren there with me. I've stayed at several different residence Inns before and this had to have been the worst. I definitely won't be back to this one

The pet fee (per stay) is pretty high. $150 for the first pet, and $50 for a second. Maybe that makes sense for longer term stays, but that's steep for a single night!

Galentines getaway

My girls and I decided to celebrate Valentines day with a trip. The indoor pool was their favorite part as it is the middle of winter! The room was comfortable and spacious and provided everything with ease. A side note the shampoo and Conditioner were incredible and I need to find them online for home!! Overall a great stay and definitely up to the Marriott standards we are used to!

We enjoyed our stay. The hotel was basically brand new. Everything was clean and fresh. The only negative was the water in the shower never got hot enough. It just stayed lukewarm.

This hotel is well kept, clean and modern. We stayed in a 1 bdrm suite and the room was perfect for 4. There was a good size fridge, nice electric range with a full size microwave. There was a full size sink and a small dish washer along with all you need to prepare a meal. The breakfast in the lobby was very good, lots of options and the coffee was on point (very important)! We will be back in the future!!
