My 2 sisters and I spent the weekend here. This is a lovely hotel in the middle of a very nice shopping district with restaurants close by. Our room was a bit smaller than expected but meticulously clean and well designed with a kitchen area and larger fridge. I would stay here again!!

Everything was perfect! We stayed a week and picked the perfect location to be in. The District has several restaurants, coffee shops, breakfast places, ice cream and dessert shops, and shopping all within a block. You can easily walk everywhere. Also has movie theater and bowling ally. Easy parking in back and easier in the front. The Residence Inn’s rooms are perfect with large kitchen (fully stocked) and great living area. Bathrooms are spacious with large walk in showers. Plenty of closet and drawer space. The whole hotel was spotless. Good variety at breakfast. Staff was extra friendly. John especially gives above and beyond service. The breakfast ladies are always smiling! A bit pricey but well worth the location. We will be back!

Racist

I didn’t feel welcomed. When I checked in all I was asked was for a deposit then handed my room key whereas the couple who checked in after me received a map along with recs and itinerary. Second I didn’t receive housekeeping during my stay. Although I booked for 2 days I still should have received housekeeping. And lastly the person who was on duty for breakfast for 7/4 followed my daughter and I around the kitchen the entire time we made our plates making us both feel so uncomfortable. Yes I am a woman of color as well as my daughter and to say the least we felt discriminated against. Will not be booking here ever again
