Residence Inn by Marriott-Oklahoma City

I stayed here with my family for a week. The atmosphere makes it feel more welcoming and homey than any other hotel I’ve been too. The people are friendly and with breakfast every morning and dinner Mon thru Friday included with your stay, you just can’t beat the price. The rooms are clean and beds comfortable. I will stay here if I’m ever in Oklahoma city again.

We’ve been staying at this hotel for years and this is our first bad experience. We were in Oklahoma city 18 days for the MGN&WC Horse Show, and didn’t spend much time at the hotel. The time there, however, was less than satisfactory, especially considering our $ 2,000 hotel bill. Night two of our stay, we reported to the front desk that the bathroom ceiling was leaking. We reported the leak worsened when the upstairs neighbor showered. The front desk staff took note, and promised the situation would be resolved. After four days of no resolution, and the leak worsening, we reported the problem again. And again, and again, each night for the rest of our stay. The constant dripping, from directly above the toilet, made it unbearable to use the restroom in our room. We tried to convey the displeasure of the thought of dirty shower water dripping onto us below, but the staff seemed unconcerned, and maintenance was either unwilling or incompetent.
The second to last night of our stay, the police were called to break up a large party in one of the guest rooms. The people leaving the party harassed guests in the parking lot, and I was once again thankful to have two large dogs. I can hardly hold irresponsible guests against the hotel, but it added to the «bummer» of a stay at the Residence Inn.
I’m not writing this review to «bash» or hurt the hotel, but rather to draw attention to the lack of maintenance and desire for better service. I plan to stay again in the future, but will not if I can’t be assured problems I have will at least be addressed.

Stayed here for almost a couple nights bc the newer Marriott in brick town was completely booked so they sent us down the street to this location.
The one bedroom suite we were booked in $ 140 a night was a tiny compact elf room complete with elf kitchen and elf bathroom.
The first night hubby & I were there we decided to walk across the street to my new fave bar in okc Trappers Fish Camp, coincidentally right across the street and have a few drinkies :) we quickly made some friends at the bar and ended up closing the place down lol being able to walk back from the bar was the only great thing about this elfin place.
The hotel Leaves a list on the frig and while your gone during the day they will shop for you and get you whatever you ask for except beer, wine, liquor — oh well, I gave it my best shot anyway ;)
So hubby decided to cook his pizza in the elfin kitchen while watching a movie & forgot about it. Pretty much within 20 elfin mins we were being smoked out of
«Elf Cottage» sirens & elf lights a blazin!
Hubby opened the sliding doors that lead to the pool as there were several people wandering & wondering about on their balconies to suspect elfin smells of burnt cheese. Classic.
The pool had this weird fence around it that obstructed the view. The rooms are all laid out around it like Swedish cottages with a obstructed view of the pool. What the elfin heck?!
The breakfast that was offered was elfin yucky. McDonald’s sausage, fake eggs, Belgian waffles and the strangest mosh posh of yogurts like they just bought whatever they could find. Apples & bananas were most appreciated ;)
The only thing Good about the bathroom was that they provided Paul Mitchell shampoo & conditioner :))
The bed & the pillows were elfin small as the linens were on average of a motel 6.
Worst of all the «hearth» coffee was elfin nasty!
On the second night around 7pm we just decided to get in the car and drive 2 hours home to sleep in a real bed ;)
That was the best elfin decision we ever made!

It is ok. I have stayed in a number of Residence Inns over the years and dozens of Marriott properties and this one is fine. However, the rooms seem to be a little smaller and the bedroom was not separate from the main room which made it a little difficult as we had the kids staying with us. Pool was really clean and the evening buffet was great but super-​carb heavy as always. Remember, Residence Inns are pet-​friendly but they do charge a pet fee of 100 for a pet.
Great location for all those FAA folks that come to town. I met a few in the lounge hanging out. A great crew.

Generally I like Residence Inns. This one was a disappointment, though. On the plus side, it had a free breakfast and free internet. Also, the staff upgraded us to a nicer level of room for free when we called for the reservation. On the downside, the person who woman who checked us in when we arrived was, well «inconsiderate» is not the right word, maybe «uncaring»?
The business center/​lobby were very nice. The room accommodations were old and quite frankly worn out. Popcorn ceilings, worn out furniture, dirty walls, and the bathroom was so low that when I pulled the t-​shirt off over my head I whacked my knuckles pretty hard against the ceiling.

I stay here when I’m on travel status with the government. I have to be in Oklahoma City for weeks at a time. As unbearable as the length of my stay is, the Residence Inn makes it much better.
The free breakfast and dinner (Mon — Thur for the dinner) are fantastic. (Free beer on tap at dinner too!) The breakfast is what I look forward to the most! It has waffles, bagels, biscuits and gravy, fruit, yogurt, breakfast burritos etc. The dinner buffets are small some nights, but all you can eat. The food staff greets me with a smile and «Good Morning».
The staff has always been courteous. They accomidated me when I had to check in late numerous times. There’s always a smile and great tone of voice.
The rooms have a full sized kitchen, desk, and flatscreen TV (it’s a cheap tv). If you stay there they have free internet. You have to call the internet company if you want to use your Xbox. The maids do a great job of cleaning too. Each bed has like 10 soft pillows. So many that most end up on the floor. I’ve never had a bad experience here. It’s in a great location too when it comes to being close to food and stores. I wouldn’t trust leaving things overnight in my car.
As much as I hate staying in Oklahoma City, this makes the whole experience as enjoyable as it can be. I will always stay here when possible!

There are a couple reviews on this hotel where the people are reviewing the residence inn downtown by the ballpark. This hotel is close to the Reno and meridian area. The lobby and pool are nice cause they recently rebuilt it because of a fire. The rooms on the other hand are outdated and dumpy other than the new flat screens. This place is below average for price you will pay unless they upgrade rooms.

Stayed for two days. Very nice residence inn. Social hour doesn’t have beer and wine– like some other places I’ve stayed.
Person checking me seemed «new» and was kind of slow and stupid.
Parking is apparently an issue with ballpark nearby. Bass pro shop is really cool– walk over and check it out– good free entertainment.
Lots of stuff in walking distance.

I’ve been converted to Residence Inn. I usually stay in the Courtyard just down the street from this place, but that was sold out for whatever reason.
Reasons why I would choose this place over the Courtyard:
1. Free parking (park in Bass Pro if the lot is full)
2. Free hot breakfast
3. Social hour in the evenings
4. Clean, friendly service
But Courtyard wins on the gym. The gym here is functional, but very unimpressive.

This was a pretty nice place to stay. They have a social hour with food on most evenings and breakfast included in the price. The room was in good condition and the house keeping was good.
