    OK, except for the surprise fees

    During the booking of this room, there was no mention of an overnight parking fee OR a fee for wi fi usage. Therefore I was surprised by these charges, so that was unpleasant. Had I known about these extra fees, I might have made a different lodging choice. In unit 1124, the upstairs bathroom fan does not operate.

    The breakfast was good. There were two bathrooms. The staff was friendly. There was a a full size kitchen.

    The rooms are okay but the furniture was quite uncomfortable, and the building definitely needs some updating.

    Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great. Location was ideal, close to shopping and airport. I liked the fact that it had two bedroom units available, which was ideal for a big family.

    Of all the places I have stayed in the area this property has by far been the best. I do not care about things being updated, I’m not checking into a luxury spa, but I do care about clean and it was clean. I love that they are basically apartment duplexes which means I don’t have to traips through the lobby and say hello to anyone (I’m an introvert). I reserved the queen suite with a fireplace and it was great - spacious with natural light. Also, I never sleep well in hotels but I had a very good, restful one here. It was so quiet. I will be returning to the Residence Inn. You cannot beat it for the value.

    Perfectly fine motel

    We had to pay for parking, which given that's about the only way to get there feels like an unnecessary extra. We would have preferred that to be rolled into the room rate.

    The location is about 4 miles from SeaTac Airport, so not bad. We had a two room family suite. We had asked for the sofa bed to be made up, but had to do it ourselves on arrival. One bedroom allows you to close the doors, the other is in an open loft upstairs. Not as private as we would prefer, but not a huge problem. Breakfast was busy, and perfectly fine if a bit bland.

    There wasn't much I didn't like. The only thing I could suggest is seating or lawn furniture on the decks or outside this sliding glass doors.

    The location was great and the way the hotel is set up is also nice. I like that you can enter your room without having to enter the main building. It's like an apartment complex the way it's set up only way quieter. It's a nice place to stay.

    Very poorly equipped. No dinner plates, no bowls, only bread plates, saucers and tiny fruit bowls, tiny coffee cups. 4 each. We had to eat soup out of a salad bowl. One large pot, one small, and one frying pan in bad condition. Bottom line: It is extremely expensive for what you get, but if you want a kitchen in this area, there are not many choices.

    Low rise buildings in a quiet setting . Close to Southcenter mall and the airport. Room was large and clean. Comfortable queen size bed with down pillows.

    Refused to give a refund after the front desk lady TOLD ME she would refund me. Their building wouldn’t let me check in because I’m 20 and not 21 yet their own website doesn’t say anything about an age restriction for checking in. When I called to ask why they weren’t refunding me I got some lady giving me the worst attitude I’ve ever received from someone that’s being paid to help me.

    The comfort of the sofa bed but that’s how sofa beds go I guess. Also could have used an additional blanket, I’m sure I could have asked for one but it was 2:00 am after the Taylor Swift concert and I exhausted!!

    The pool was closed. One of the main reasons I booked was because of pool. There was zero communication on booking.com or the properties website directly. The suite was expensive, but I splurged for a night of comfortable rest and a pool for the kids after 12 hours of driving. Very frustrating! The beds were OK. A little firm for my liking, but comfy bedding. The pull out couch is awful. Can feel every spring. And there was no bedding for it. I had to drive back to the front desk. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

    The suite itself was very large and clean. Although I found dog food in the closet.
