We planned this stay to coincide with the end of our vacation. It was an opportunity to rest and relax for one afternoon and night at the end of a very busy vacation. It was selected because we love Marriott, specifically, Residence Inn. As usual, we weren’t disappointed. The staff at check-in were great. The breakfast was great especially the frittatas. The hotel was about 9 miles from SMF International Airport and an easy drive.

This Residence Inn by Marriott is located in a very convenient place. There is a ton of restaurants within a 10 minute drive. The customer service is amazing and I have to go a shout-out to one of the people that kept the cafeteria area clean. The morning was busy and Madison was working so hard to keep everything clean and refilled she is amazing and deserves recognition for her hard work and dedication. With her working by herself, she was able to manage to get everything done and what was so impressive is that she did everything with a smile and thanked everybody even though the during the most difficult and busiest time. Great job Madison.

Residence Inn is one of my favorite hotels. This one is in the middle of downtown and the airport. Very convenient. The room is a little smaller than most other Residence Inn rooms, but it still has a good kitchen and a dining table. The hotel is near the freeway and many restaurants in the area.

Great mid-range hotel experience. It was conveniently located by the freeway, though there isn't anything like a walkable neighborhood. If you need a place to sleep, with free breakfast, pool and a small kitchen it works well. The breakfast was pretty mid, but still appreciate the healthy oatmeal option. The eggs were from a mix and were inedible IMO. Staff were super great and friendly.

In town for a wedding. Lots of food options within walking distance. We were in the corner next to freeway, we heard very little traffic noise. The stay was very comfortable and provided breakfast was very good. For the price paid it was a very worthwhile place to stay.

I visited this place a few weeks ago, stopping after doing business. The area is fair, it’s basically in the middle of somewhere that’s almost in the middle of nowhere. But, th room was inexpensive and clean. Kitchen was organized well and it was nicer like a studio bedroom. I can see someone staying here and living the pool and hot tub. Getting here can be a little difficult because it’s behind a shopping center that you have to drive through to get to. But it’s nice
