Residence Inn by Marriott State College

Kristi Smith

Great location in State College! Rooms were clean and appreciated allowing an early checkin on a stormy day!

Mary, the night desk lady, was super friendly and accommodating for a late night check-in and assisted us in getting 2 roll away beds. Megan, the morning desk lady, was super friendly at assisting in additional morning shower towels! The breakfast buffet was one of the best I've seen at a Marriott Property. The rooms, amenities, decor, etc. was modern and very clean. Everyone was super inviting and friendly, even for a one night stay.

I felt welcome upon my arrival, even though I was late arriving. I was extremely happy as soon as I went into the room and saw how much space I had for moving around, a large work-space for my laptop, even a TV on a swivel so I could watch from anywhere in the room. I nice kitchenette (even a dishwasher). I only needed to stay two nights but I could have been comfortable there much longer if I needed. Open, airy, clean, spot on.

We visited State College several times a year because our child is attending PSU, so we have stayed at several hotels. We chose Residence Inn this time because we were bringing our 75-lb Labrador. Most other hotel would not take dogs over 50 lbs. The room size are larger than most other hotels, so that is good. Staff is friendly and professional. Breakfast is the best part - the lady looking after the breakfast area has been wonderful - always greeting guests with a smile and making small talk, always filling up food and cleaning up the area. It is not easy when staff shortage is obvious! Other parts of the hotel has been less impressive - the halls has a slight smell - not sure it is dampness, pet smell or just lack of maintenance. When we checked in our room, we found a kibble and a small piece of food wrap on the floor! During our 4-night stay, we have to ask AND remind front desk to provide room service on the 3rd day. If we didn't ask, the garbage would not be cleared and was filling up to the rim. Overall, the level of cleanliness is not acceptable and we hope it is only because of Covid. If not, the hotel would not justify the premium price they are charging!
