Guest Reviews
- Stephanie (10/5): - Room was very clean and spacious
- Lorri (8/5): - We really enjoyed the hotel. The kids had fun in the pool and breakfast was great! The room was comfortable overall. The only reason I did not give a 5 star review is because the refrigerator in the room was very loud all night long. I did forget to tell the front desk before leaving so hopefully they will see it on this review and check on that.
Great service and friendly staff.
- Lisa (10/5): - It was very clean and all the staff were very nice. It's really nice to have a kitchen and full sized fridge with it's own ice maker. Breakfast was decent, only minor complaint would be that it'd be nice to have some fresh fruit along with it.
- Joseph (10/5): - Very clean and great staff. We would stay here again and would recommend others to stay here.
- Joel (8/5): - It is a great hotel.
- Jermain (10/5): Family event - Great stay for the money. Will return whenever I'm in Cedar Rapids.
- Wendy (10/5): - The room was nice and clean, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay there again!
- Emily (8/5): - amenities
- Elizabeth (6/5): Poor service - We asked for room service at 230 pm when they had not come to clean the room we were told they couldn’t do it but we would be first the next morning. They came and cleaned the room at 1230 pm not exactly 1st. Also the door handle to the closet fell off they couldn’t fix till Monday because there was no maintenance service on the weekend. Paid way too much not to have a nice experience felt like a motel six.
- Judith (10/5): - Very nice stay
- Michelle (2/5): - We had no idea the property was in the middle of an industrial area. No big deal and just a heads up; however, the problems began at checkin. The girl who checked us in said the card we used to reserve the room was declined. I reserved thru a third party site and had no indication this was the case. My husband went ahead and paid for the room with another card. Guess what? The charge for the room cleared my credit card 2 days later so we were double charged for the room (currently working to resolve this). Next, she asked for my Marriott rewards number but the trip and our points still don't appear in my account. Finally, the room looks like it had been badly abused by several occupants. Pieces of trim were missing on the wall shelf and in the bathroom, there was a huge gouge in the back of the door, grout was cracked and broken on the bathroom in the path of travel, the shower caulk was splitting so mold/mildew were growing, and there was a broken tile in the shower. I usually like staying at the Residence Inns but for the price you have to pay to stay there, one would expect the rooms to have some standards of upkeep...especially if you're charged twice for the room.
- Chris (10/5): - The staff there went above and beyond. Couldn't ask for a better stay and experience. Will definitely look to stay again when I'm back in town.
- Muriah (10/5): - We stayed in a king bed room and it was very spacious and comfortable. There was a little wear and tear here and there and the body wash wasn’t filled, however the bed was so comfortable and the breakfast was very nice!
- Jerry (8/5): - Liked the location
- Verified traveler (10/5): Pleasant and Comfy - I was pleasantly surprised with the room. Plenty of room. Fridge and microwave were very clean. They provided everything needed to prepare meals. It was nice and quiet. Close to department stores and many restaurants. The parking lot was a little small, but luckily it wasn't packed during our stay. The pool seemed a little green, but the surface didn't feel slick or slimy, so I don't think it was algae. It could have just been the color of the pool. It felt clean. It smelled clean. No strong chlorine smell.
- Russell (10/5): - We enjoyed our room. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean.
- NITIN (10/5): - Nice property
- Stephanie (6/5): - This was not my usual Residen
- Verified traveler (8/5): X - Nice place friendly staff
- Wendy (10/5): - Short trip to visit a local college in Cedar Rapids. We arrived very early and requested an early check in. The staff was able to accommodate us without any pause. I’m so thankful to the staff who went beyond for us. The location & parking lot were quiet, well illuminated & safe. The room was amazing- clean and cozy. All staff were friendly and helpful. This exceeded my expectations. Will stay here again when I drop my kid off at college in the Fall.
- Geoffrey (6/5): - Ok
- Kathryn (10/5): Nice hotel near airport. - I stayed here on a longer flight. I was told that they had a shuttle to the airport but did not. Other than that, the hotel was great.
- Siu Wang (10/5): - Near airport

- Wilson (6/5): - On Sunday 9/8/2024 we left our room at 2pm and we told maid service we were leaving so they could clean the room.We came back to roon 228 at 9pm and the room was not clean, all the dirty towers were on the floor, floor not vacuum and trash cans full. Went to the front desk and reported this. The front desk lady said she could not give us another room because we are sold. Out. She lied because i went to your website and Expedia and they showed 4 rooms available of the same as we had. The lady gave us towels and told us to leave the dirty towels in the hall and that. I would like a refund for sleeping in a dirty room. Wilson
We stayed at residence a total of 4 nights in the same room 228, and not just 2 nigh as you stated..
As I said in my compliant, I Notified your maid services that we was leaving for about 6 hours, gave her a bag of trash and said our room need cleaning she said ok and i will dispose this trash.
Since you checked in on the 6th and check out was on 8th, unfortunately refresh service for your room was not assigned by the system. ( We checked out on Sept. 10, 2024) stayed 4 nights
We should be compensated for the 1 night that where our room was not clean. when had rooms 4 clean available.
- Frank (8/5): - rather average breakfast choices
- allen (10/5): - Location to Hawkeye Downs Raceway.
- Richard (4/5): Okay-wouldn’t stay there again. - Shower had pink mold and shower floor was dirty.
Charged a $100 pet fee which was not disclosed beforehand.
Front desk staff less than friendly.
- Anthony (10/5): Good spot to stay - Clean and nice people
- Nathan John (8/5): - I
- Glen (10/5): Clean and quiet!!! - Spacious and clean rooms. Nice pool.
- johnna (4/5): - No towels for pool. Ask for replacement and was told they were all dirty. Free breakfast didn’t start on time and food was out and not replenished
- Herbert (10/5): - Safe and quiet
- Verified traveler (10/5): 10/10 - Receptionist was exceptional and the place was very clean and spacious.
- Barbara (10/5): - The service was exceptional and the studio was very clean and welcoming and the bed very comfortable. Thanks for a delightful stay

- Evan (10/5): - Great one night stay. Clean and spacious.
- Calvin (10/5): - This is a great property
- Robert (8/5): - It was clean and quiet. Comfortable bed. I was surprised that there were no USB ports in the room. Lighting was adequate, but could have been brighter in the kitchenette area.
- Mark (10/5): - Bathroom shower tile/surround cracked and broken
- Peggy (10/5): - Nice big area to stay.
There were dirty dishes in the microwave. Also breakfast was disappointing- no eggs, no oatmeal, out of most things.
- Bobbi (10/5): - Clean
- Ramiro (8/5): - Friendly staff in the kitchen
- Gordon (8/5): - Very few amentiies (no lotion, no iron/ironing board), and the sink stopper was broken and sitting beside the sink. The furniture is quite old and tired looking, not what one would expect for a Marriott.
- Denise (10/5): - Clean
- Brooke (10/5): - Very good experience
- Jonathan (10/5): - Nice people
- Alice (10/5): - Excellent property!
- Patrick (4/5): - Housekeeping, never came to room to empty trash.
Had to ask for fresh towels.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - A/C was broken, Bathroom sink had no hot water and sink was clogged. There was stains on all the furniture and bathroom walls.
- Jan (10/5): - The breakfast buffet was great! The room was spacious and clean! The hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating!
- Ivette (4/5): - There was spoiled food in the fridge from a previous guest. The person at the front desk was also attending to the breakfast. It was too much work, and it showed.
- Kenneth (8/5): - Room was very nice and clean. Provided breakfast wasn’t much to brag about. Eggs were undercooked and so was the bacon. I wouldn’t stay there because it included a breakfast.
- Donna (8/5): - Rooms need to be updated
- Holi (2/5): - Pool wasnt working due to filthy people, staff was crabby, breakfast was microwaved burritos and the room was totally less than!
- Jessica (10/5): - The house keeping staff was friendly and enthusiastic. The rooms were very clean and had everything we needed for a very reasonable price.
- margaret (8/5): - Great room and kitchenette. Bathroom was spacious and shower was amazing
- Kyle (4/5): - We arrived at hotel at 1515 (check in is 1500)in the afternoon. When we came in we were told there were no clean rooms and had to wait with my wife and children in the hotel lobby until room was ready. Shower leaked all over the floor in the bathroom. Smell in the room was bad and musty. Not terrible. But not the best either
- Rosemarie (8/5): - Above expectations.
- Julia (4/5): - The room was good size and would have been nice if it were cleaned properly - furniture was dirty, floor was sticky, and I saw a mouse in the hallway as I was leaving. The staff were not friendly nor accommodating. I was very disappointed and disgusted with the cleanliness of this facility. Would not recommend!
- Rachael (10/5): - Kindness when we brought in our pets. Shared generous knowledge of the area.
- Cheri (2/5): - I pay for the room through expedia and then they require a credit card for incidentals and when my daughter checks out twice now they have charged her debit card for the room again so we are being double charged. I have had to call the hotel both times to get a refund.
- DALE (10/5): - We liked the room and lobby. The pool was closed and it was very noisy in the parking lot.
- Harry Eldon (4/5): - Staff was very pleasant however they had to apology for no food at breakfast, closed swimming pool. Did not have bottled water for 2 days, supply problem was evident
- Cliff (10/5): A little piece of home. - Great place to stay with everything you need! It's just like a studio with a full size fridge, electric stove, dishwasher, microwave and a sink! Soft pillows and bedding and a big size bathroom made this stay enjoyable. Highly recommended!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was very well kept and the breakfast 🍳 was always good I really like my time there.
- Christopher (10/5): Very nice play to stay - An older area of town, but this is really a great hotel
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The hotel is nice and clean but I paid for this hotel through Expedia and then the hotel charged me again at check in. Still trying to resolve although I had proof the said it they didn't do it.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean, quiet. Great lay-out of the room.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - My pets enjoyed it as well. Great property with range
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Have stayed here several times & have always had a great experience. Only issue I found this time was that the fitness center needs to be attended more often. I notified the desk once that I took the last towel - the next day there were 4 (other people may have used some in the 24 hrs). I was there 2 wks and never saw any changes in the room other than that. Was a spray bottle for cleaning, but the paper towels were never replaced.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - I would not rate this hotel as 3 star anymore. Due to time this place is in need of maintenance. The pool was shut down due to no maintenance. There was garbage all around the buildings including dog poop that people did not pick up. The staff was great although we had someone pop in our room every day without waiting for someone to answer the door. In one room there was wax melted on the floor and wall. In the other room there was rusting in the bathroom due to no fans in the bathroom to help with moisture control. Molding on some of the wall edges were missing. The was also has a stack of cardboard supporting one of the legs of the bed.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We had a little problem with the first room we were put in. The 2nd was really good. Besides some questionable spots on the couch the room was pretty clean and the person that checked us in was very friendly.
- Michelle (10/5): Definitely would stay again. - Excellent service. There were some parts of the room that could have used a bit more cleaning; crusty food on the sofa and some sticky substance on the floor in the bathroom.
- Brandi (10/5): No no - Very clean and quiet, only thing is they let a associate of mine into my room without my knowledge!, i returned to my room , key wouldn work come to relize , they gave him a key , an he wasn't even on my room!?
- Jamie (2/5): Unhappy - The room smelled nasty, there was oly 2 towels in the suite we had, the tub stopper was broken so giving my little one a bath was difficult. The rack that they keep the conditioner, shampoo, and body wash was in was broke off the wall. The bathroom door wouldn't shut and latch all the way.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We really appreciate the extra work they do to keep everything sanitized. The room was very clean and comfortable.
- Melissa (6/5): - Mask rules weren't enforced. There were signs that masks were required but guests were walking without them directly in front of staff.
Free breakfast food had mostly run out by our second morning...milk, fruit and yogurt were all gone.
At first glance the room was very nice. Once we settled in we noticed broken door knobs, leaking water, loose baseboards, outlets that didn't work.
- Heather (10/5): - Beautiful room and the staff so friendly!!
- Tracey L (8/5): Our stay. - I really liked the set up of the room, it was very comfortable. I was a little upset with cleanliness of the shower. There was hair in the shower. There was a broken coffee cup, which didn't not it was broke until I used it, and coffee leaked every where. It was cracked all the way down the handle. The dishes where still in dishwasher so was not sure if clean or not so rewashed them. The bed was very comfortable and again really liked the set up of the room. Also fridge was turned on high so it froze everything we put in there.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Convenient location and spacious rooms, but room was not as clean as expected when we checked in.
- William (8/5): - The rooms were suitably furnished for the space, but it would have been helpful in a room that sleeps 4, to have seating and table space for four, especially under COVID-19 situation. And: if you're going to tout your breakfast, make sure you have enough breakfast for all your lodgers for both days of the weekend.
- Verified traveler (4/5): No masks - Signs were posted that masks were required in common areas. Only about half of the staff and about 10% of the guests were wearing masks.
- ShannonT (4/5): - This was my 2nd stay at this hotel within 2 years and it was less than desirable this time. Specifically the lack of cleanliness. The floors in the lobby, elevators and bathroom in our room were bad. The hallways looked like they hadn’t been vacuumed in a while either. Also, the back of the hotel where smoking is allowed was not kept up. The grass was so long weeds were as tall as me and trash was not picked up. I was extremely impressed with my first stay but due to the lack of cleanliness on my 2nd I will be making another selection on my next trip in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.🙁
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean, new, near places to eat as well as downtown
- Perry (8/5): Bed was very comfortable. - The overall was pretty good.
- Kristy (10/5): - Great stay. Excellent and friendly service. Good nights sleep. Nice and Clean Room
- John (6/5): - Tv had no signal. Front desk gave me number of cable provider and I needed to call their cable provider and have the cable box rebooted. ( no, not kidding) The number went to a recoding ( July 4th evening) . Promised call back never came. Then no one at front desk!!! WOW
- Josh (10/5): - Nice place, but they need to fix the fire pit.
