The area is safe, I would say even at night. The Metro is about a 3-4 minute walk which makes it easier to go anywhere once you get familiar with the area map.
The hotel staff was really nice and helpful, from the front desk to the breakfast staff.
The breakfast was ok, pretty much everyday was the same and they did not serve bacon any of the days (we stayed for 6 days).
The room was clean and spacious. The only reason o give 4 stars it’s because the furniture, appliances and kitchen need an urgent update. For the price paid I would’ve expected a more high-end room. I’ve stayed at other Residence Inns in the past and they’re usually more upscale. Definitely needs a facelift.
The pool was warm and full of kids running amoc, the jacuzzi was full of bubbles but there was some dirt in there?
Overall, I would recommend the hotel.
