Clean spacious room. Everything is high quality. Quiet. Huge selection for breakfast buffet. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I've stayed at about 5 hotels in the area, and Residence Inn is my favorite, my #1 choice.
This property is exceptional they even keep notes from previous bookings so they could remember you when you visit again. It was my kids birthday and they even gave him a toy and asked him about his plans for his birthday celebration my kid turned 6 and he's already asking when we will be staying there again. Breakfast is great and the staff is great. Will be booking this place from now on.
My wife booked this hotel so we could have an shorter drive after a wedding event. We got the room with minimal expectations as we were going to be in and out. Check in was great as the front counter was very welcoming and explained everything briefly. We asked questions about pool hours and breakfast start times and he answered them plus informed us of the closing of the front doors after hours.
Our room was clean, spacious, and had great amenities. Kitchen, dining room, full bathroom and it was conveniently next to the pool. Though, that last part was just a lucky coincidence.
Checkout was seamless and all that was taken out was $5 for parking. Overall great stay!
The room was so clean and spacious, and the full kitchen (including a full sized fridge) was wonderful. We wished we had more time to spend in the room!
Was perfect for us, came down to visit son and stayed three days here, everything great, nice firepit outside at night to have a glass of wine and enjoy the stars, and a fireplace in the room, full kitchen with all dishes, pots, pans etc, great staff, great breakfast. Second time there, will stay again.
Just a few things to note that made our stay a bit uncomfortable. We Booked the 1 Bedroom Suite and when we arrived to our room it was a Handicap Room. I returned to the Desk to ask if there was a Standard 1 Bedroom Suite and was told ALL 1 Bedroom Suites are Handicap Rooms. The problem with the Suite is it lacked needed furniture as pictured on site like the Dresser. When you have an Extended Stay a Dresser is helpful. We also had no Fireplace in the Living Area and No Drawers in the Kitchen for utensils. The set up was just not as expected. We also arrived to NO Towels in the bathroom. Just an inconvenience start to our weekend. Property is located very close to the Freeway so a bit noisy. AC worked great and the property felt safe. Over all a Good Property but not one I will return too. 5*/10* for me
Room was very clean and well prepared. Got some complimentary lotions, shaving set etc from the front desk. Breakfast was nice!! We had coffee and some fruits. Gameroom was ok. We stayed 3 nights.
Front desk was helpful too
Area was close to shopping mall.
Check in staff was very welcoming and helpful. The room was a very decent size and was very clean.
Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025
