text: I stayed at the Residence Inn on a day trip with a buddy of mine back on the last weekend in August guys weekend away type of trip The overall experience was not bad but when I weigh the value there is definitely pros consnnDue to full disclosure let me say that this stay did not cost me anything My friend I was traveling with has an enormous amount of Marriott Reward Points and offered to treat for the room provided I drove Obvious choice on my part So after doing a little bit of research I have discovered that the value of the Bedroom Suite we stayed in on that weekend would have been about night according to the Marriotts website for people in that room on that weekend So based on that here is my thoughts nnInitially we had booked a Double Bed Studio but while talking on the drive up we decided the Bedroom Suite would be a better fit My friend called from the road and had no problem switching rooms nnWe were on time to hit Montreal at about pm on a Sat afternoon but then we ran into the always aggravating random selection at the border Just over hours later we were back on the road which put us at the hotel at about ish They have an underground garage night added to the hotel bill on arrival and like most in the city it was extremely narrow with low ceilings I would not suggest an large SUV So we parked and went to the lobby to check in Unfortunately we were informed that the room was not ready yet which was mildly annoying seeing as which Check In time is and after the drive from Boston including the border hassle all I wanted was a shower and a change But we had the girl behind the desk take our bags did a quick wash in the lobby bathroom and headed down to Peel Pub for some lunch a few beers nnBack to the hotel and we could finally check in at around pm The room was your basic Bedroom Suite It is very comparable in size comfort to the Quality Inn on Crescent St but the Quality Inn is about the price Everything worked just fine Both TVs AC bathroom hot water etc The WiFi was very limited we were barely getting bar on any of our devices Droid iPhone an iPad laptop The pullout bed in the couch was as comfortable or uncomfortable as most sofabeds nnOverall it was a very nice place perfectly located for those looking to stay downtown but normally it would be out of my price range Based on only that fact I cannot see myself staying here in the future I would recommend it for families on vacation clean very quiet at night people traveling for business or couples looking for a bit more of a upscale hotel
