Upon check in we were upgraded to a suite. Wonderful upgrade for our stay. There was a slight issue with the toilet but maintenance was there quick and resolved the issue. The property is a little older but it’s kept very clean. Breakfast was wonderful each morning. The front desk was always pleasant and greeted us. The location is perfect for walking to so many attractions.

This property seems well maintained, it offers a breakfast that was pretty good with a fair amount of choices. The location is excellent, it is close to Little Italy, a trendy area with lots of restaurants and across the street from Seaside pier another great area with lots of restaurants. My only criticism was our room wasn't as clean as it could be. The staff was always helpful and friendly

The room was spacious and clean. But it looked outdated compared to another Residence Inn facility a few blocks away. The staff was helpful and professional, as one would expect at any Marriott. Breakfast was decent and standard. The building overall seems old and hasn't been modernized.

My stay was great overall. The room was clean and the staff were friendly. Breakfast was great and filling. Parking is limited so I would suggest checking in earlier to secure a parking spot. When I checked in around 9 pm there were very few parking spots left.

The staff was approachable and always had a smile when we passed the front desk. They even provided a couple places to visit and eat at near by. Our room was clean and very quiet from outside noise which was great since we were by the rail. Breakfast was good, always hot and a good selection for something quick to start the day.

I stood here for a full week with my family, I was worried because I have two younger daughters and needed a crib for my youngest. The staff were super accommodating and provided a pack and play for us. Over all the staff was super nice and very helpful when we had questions, the area is a great area we walked a lot, and just followed well lit areas which you can see from the preprint is the majority surrounding it. We will book there again, thank you hotel staff for everything and making our stay wonderful!

Liked: Cleanliness

It’s probably better for a short-term resident than a overnight traveler or a tourist. No stores or restaurants near by, dark hallways, and no view. All doors including main entrance kept lock and sundries limited. DoorDash did not have a lot of options and walking the neighborhood was questionable. But, the room was clean and tidy and equipped like a typical Residence Inn. I left before breakfast was available.

The room smelled, felt and looked so clean. We got the suite with a bay view and it was extraordinary. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was nice with a good selection. Great location with tons to do around the city within walking distance. Such a pleasant experience and worth every penny.

Our stay was just okay, great centralized location near the water. Our issue was the bathroom, had to call someone to fix the toilet and the light took forever to turn on. It was annoying. The elevator can definitely be a little bit bigger, it was difficult to maneuver the luggage cart.
