This property is clean and new, but there are several operational issues that need attention. The check-in process took far too long, and the staff appeared understaffed to handle the rush efficiently. Breakfast was chaotic, with too many guests and long lines at the waffle station. The limited space for food service created a frustrating experience, and there were frequent shortages of food and coffee without staff available for quick refills. Furthermore, staff members lacked knowledge about the hotel's amenities, which is unacceptable. A staff member promised a rollaway bed, but it was not available at check-in. The deadbolts on the doors were non-functional, and the key system was down. The parking lot was poorly designed, making it difficult to transport luggage from the car to the entrance, as there were no flat areas to navigate through easily. Overall, these issues need immediate attention to enhance the guest experience.

This is a brand new property. Very clean, modern and has a pleasant atmosphere. The hotel has a common lobby area and amenities for both Residence Inn and Springhill Suites, which was confusing when I first arrived. The breakfast selection is good. They served quiche and frittata in the breakfast buffet. The waffles were good, liked the nice touch of fruit compote and whipped cream offerings. The pasty and bread selection is minimal, this could be better. Staff is very friendly.

Stayed for a holiday weekend and had a great time. Check in was super smooth and room was very clean. Hotel is conveniently located near shopping, cafes, and wonderful restaurants. Pro tips to avoid confusion on your trip: Use a credit card for payment (debit card may place a hold), parking is $15/day, sign up through Marriott for free wi-fi, and try the tri tip sandwich on weekends at the shop next door. Hotel is new and welcoming, and I look forward to staying in the future.

I love Residence Inn, and I look for it every time I travel. Pros: Comfortable, clean, spacious room, helpful staff. New area of town with some nice amenities. I was traveling for business so it was nice to have a good desk space and comfortable chair. Cons: I take good care of my car so parking is always important to me, and the stalls in the parking lot are SMALL. Get one near the edge if you can. There was also a $15/day parking charge on the bill that I wasn't told about. Overall it was a good stay, and I still love Residence Inn.
