After having and going to many parties I realized after last night this is by far the best place to throw a party without getting caught, unless you have ridiculously loud friends. Free breakfast in the morning is a +!

Don't forget to ask for lakeside view so your not on the office side.

Comes with everything and more...like really the dishwasher, oven, stove ect... Makes it convent for those who stay long periods of time.

Upon our family's move to happy California from far, far away we
learned after our flight that the seller of our new casa would not leave the casa...OUR casa. Yes, closing had been completed.

The seller's agent, Jeri Jorgensen did nothing to get her client out of
OUR new home.
Wow, what gals.

We were forced to scramble and find a temporary place for the
kitty-cats and their servants (us).

Since the handsome man was to start work immediately in the South Bay,
we chose this Residence Inn and stayed for three days while we
TRIED to get the agent to kick her client out of OUR new home.

We all were pretty darn impressed with this Residence Inn; kitties included.
We had a two level temporary casa, which was pleasantly decorated.
There was a full kitchen, comfy living area and two bedrooms.

A decent breakfast was available each morning and that was a great
way to start our days in our new happy state!

The only bummer about the floor plan for us was in regards to one
of the bedrooms being an open space on the upper level.
Noise carried heavily up to that sleeping area.

After three days we finally got the seller's agent to get her client's ass
out of OUR new home. At least we had a homey place to stay to ease
that disturbing issue.

The kitties and their servants truly do highly recommend this
Residence Inn.

I don't know what made me think of this but I realize why I loved coming to this place in my teenage years/early 20s...

Yeah, the parties were great (until ppl you don't know show up and break the coffee maker) but beyond that it was also a great way to gauge a potential girlfriend/boyfriend. With all the amenities and the full kitchen, especially the two-story loft, it really felt like home. Even if for one night, you got a very good idea what it would be like to live with this person and thus, it answered a lot of questions about the relationship without having to invest a few years of your life. Things such as:

"Well, there's the pots and pans...is she going to start cooking?"

"Did she shower today?"

"Uh oh, I'm brushing my teeth in the living room...will she start complaining?"

"What does she really look like in the morning??"

"Will she look at me funny if I just BROWSE the adult movie selection?"

"Bitch, there's TWO pillows. Do I get one or are you taking that too?"

"Vicky's Secret or granny pants?"

These and other life-altering questions can be answered for the low price of $140 a night.

For me, the panties was some off-white shit from Sears that looked like something I wore when I was six. I had to cut the broad loose.

We're relocating to California from Louisiana, so my husband's company is paying for our stay.  I cannot speak any higher of this Residence Inn.  From the extremely polite and helpful staff, hot tubs, swimming pool, very clean facility, and friendly ducks, to the super breakfast.  Do not miss the hospitality hour.  They provide complimentary wine and beer along with a variety of food.  You can save a great deal of money staying here, if you can manage to catch the breakfast & hospitality hour frequently.  Hospitality hour runs Mon. -Thurs every week.  They provide a helpful calendar on your refrigerator to keep you in tune to the local events as well as anything special going on at the hotel.  They will accept mail for you as well as packages.  This is a Residence Inn, so the rooms are complete with a kitchen, bar seating, and small living area with TV.  
We stayed here one other time when house hunting and found a great rate negotiating with http://Priceline.com.

I had to stay at this hotel for 2 or 3 months in 2001 on an extended project for work. Took advantage of the kitchen and full fridge which is a nice feature. They also stick your dirty dishes in the dishwasher when they clean your room - nice! They also clean the room daily which is not always the norm with extended stay places. Breakfast and quick and dirty dinners were nice as well.

Furniture was similar or just a slight upgrade from what I found from furnished apartment rentals in college - not bad, not great.

Staff is definitely a step down from full service hotels.

Best rates when you stay more than one week.

My two co-workers and I were fortunate enough to call this place home for two weeks.  We stayed in the suite with the second floor loft.  The kitchen was great for cooking meals.  The breakfasts in the morning were great, I totally took advantage of the make-your-own waffles in the morning.  In the evenings, they have cocktails hours with enough food to make a meal out of.  As much as I missed being at home, this was a great place to called home for two weeks.

This long-term stay hotel is one of the best I have stayed in.  Since the Residence Inn is a Marriott brand, you expect the same great service and comfortable rooms.  This property fits that mold.  My fiancee and I had a room facing the dunk pond which was very relaxing.  I highly recommend that you ask the front desk agents to check you into a room facing the duck pond.  The rooms are equipped with a full service kitchen, including a stove and oven, a microwave, a refrigerator, pots and pans, utensils, and even more.  The living area has a pull out sofa, a coffee table, and a decent size television.  The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms are over sized.  There is one thing that I advise on doing.  Since there is no wall that separates the kitchen and bedroom area, there will be slight noise from the refrigerator.  Since the refrigerator generates ice on its own, it makes a gun shot sound when it dispenses the ice.  The sound can be very scary, especially at night.  You can turn off the ice machine to prevent any unexpected noise.

Other amenities within the property includes a basketball court, swimming pool, computer stations, and a hospitality lounge that serves breakfast in the morning and appetizers and drinks in the evening.  

The Residence Inn is your home away from home.  It's nice to stay in an over sized suite with a full service kitchen for a change, especially for a long term stay.  Your Marriott Awaits.
