There is construction going on at this location. We have stayed at the other Residence Inn on market Street but never this location. There were dead water bugs in room 111.The smoke detector went off when the iron was plugged in and we were moved to a higher floor for the second night only for the water to be turned off at the hotel and we had to go next door to shower before checking out. The staff was nice and told us that we would be reimbursed for 1 night. But because we paid with 2 cards we have not been reimbursed for 1 night. I have contacted the hotel and spoken to the assistant who checked us in but she claims that the manager is the only person that can authorize the transaction so I have contacted them at least 4 times and made numerous calls at times they said I should be able to speak to the manager with no success. This has been the most terrible experience in a hotel and I will never go back to this location because of the run around the hotel staff has put us through.

Staff was great. The property was under construction while I was ther (so will likely be nicer in the future) but I received no discount for the inconvenience. Also, there was a garbage truck that came early every morning and the beeping was super loud in my room and woke me up.

This is a very tired property that badly needs renovation. We had a 2 bedroom suite and it was in poor condition. Several light bulbs were off, one of the bedroom carpets had a huge rip and there was a dead roach in a bedroom. The lights in the parking lot did not work and even though the general area is very safe, one felt unsafe walking on the property grounds. The breakfast was fine and check in service was acceptable in friendliness and speed. Definitely do not recommend this property as there are so many other hotel brands around with newer modern facilities

Its nice that they had 2 bedrooms but man that place needs serious updates furniture is worn out and gross looking. Like its in the woodlands and I can't believe it looked that crappy. Dressers raggedy and leaning and unstable. Just old! The pool was extremely old stuff peeling off walls. I was honestly very disappointed in the condition of the hotel. But I couldn't get a refund

Hallways can use some vacuuming and minor touch-ups on the walls and wall paper. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay.

We really liked the large room that fit all 6 of us comfortably, and the kids loved the indoor pool. Unfortunately we couldn’t stay in the pool area for long periods at a time because they had almost zero ventilation and the heat in there was pretty unbearable. The room was very outdated and needed lots of deep cleaning, but the staff was so nice and the breakfast was great. The location was great as well!

We were treated terribly this time around. We come every year for a soccer tournament. We have been coming to Residence Inn for the last 6 years. This location and the one down the street on Six Pines. Never have I received this type of treatment. Kids are with their coaches at a different hotel so it was just us parents. Patti the front desk clerk threaten to call the cops on us at 7:00pm for listening to SPANISH music on the patio. It was a tiny speaker that was maybe as loud as a oh I would be. She didn’t want to give us any ice, the one in the room was not enough for my cooler that I take to the field with waters. The breakfast was TERRIBLE. The lady the first couple days worked so hard to have all the food out and fresh but they didn’t have milk, half and half, yogurt, and the eggs were watery. Leslie the morning front desk clerk was so kind. Patti and one of the breakfast ladies, not Patricia, were SO RUDE. One time we were there drinking the coffee, the morning breakfast lady was cursing and throwing the trash bag around mad that she was busy and having to do the trash cans. We will NEVER stay at Residence Inn again. We will take our 9 room rental for a whole week elsewhere. There are too many options in the area ti be treated so badly.
