The Residence Inn by Marriott is a very clean and well maintained hotel, with a great parking area, convenient to main roads and Interstate 78 near shops, restaurants, fast food, and convenience stores. The Junior Suite where we stayed was large enough and had a nice kitchen with all the appliances plus pots, china, utensils, coffee maker, etc. The front desk attendants, manager and service workers offered a great level of customer service. The breakfast is excellent and offer a good variety of pastries, waffles, cereals, yogurts, juices, coffee, etc. The swimming pool is clean and very nice. We had a great time and will stay at this hotel again and again. We recommend this hotel.

This property is exceptional they even keep notes from previous bookings so they could remember you when you visit again. It was my kids birthday and they even gave him a toy and asked him about his plans for his birthday celebration my kid turned 6 and he's already asking when we will be staying there again. Breakfast is great and the staff is great. Will be booking this place from now on.

The room was clean and spacious. AC was a bit difficult to set accurately, and rather noisy. Breakfast foods were delicious. Major complaint: room rate for Saturday was about $150 more than Sunday. And, at that rate the room was not refreshed at all Sunday morning: bed left unmade, no fresh towels, no new coffee packets for the in-room maker. Very unsatisfactory for a room well above $300 in north San Diego County (not NYC, LA, SF, even downtown San Diego)!

My wife booked this hotel so we could have an shorter drive after a wedding event. We got the room with minimal expectations as we were going to be in and out. Check in was great as the front counter was very welcoming and explained everything briefly. We asked questions about pool hours and breakfast start times and he answered them plus informed us of the closing of the front doors after hours. Our room was clean, spacious, and had great amenities. Kitchen, dining room, full bathroom and it was conveniently next to the pool. Though, that last part was just a lucky coincidence. Checkout was seamless and all that was taken out was $5 for parking. Overall great stay!

Just a few things to note that made our stay a bit uncomfortable. We Booked the 1 Bedroom Suite and when we arrived to our room it was a Handicap Room. I returned to the Desk to ask if there was a Standard 1 Bedroom Suite and was told ALL 1 Bedroom Suites are Handicap Rooms. The problem with the Suite is it lacked needed furniture as pictured on site like the Dresser. When you have an Extended Stay a Dresser is helpful. We also had no Fireplace in the Living Area and No Drawers in the Kitchen for utensils. The set up was just not as expected. We also arrived to NO Towels in the bathroom. Just an inconvenience start to our weekend. Property is located very close to the Freeway so a bit noisy. AC worked great and the property felt safe. Over all a Good Property but not one I will return too. 5*/10* for me
