The front desk was welcoming. Check-in was quick. When staying at a hotel, the most important feature is whether it is clean. The Residence Marriott fit this requirement in all areas. The breakfast selection was extensive. The eggs tasted & looked like scrambled eggs. The area was clean. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was stocked well with towels. It was a great stay.
