So we travel quite a bit for pleasure. On this trip I took my son to NYC for a couple days. The hotel there...was little to be desired, old, poor front desk service, and godly expensive. However the second half of our trip was exploring Stamford Greenwich when i used to live there 25 years ago. Checking into the Marriott Residence Inn was such a refreshing feeling! The gorgeous clean lobby with beautiful interior design and art felt like checking into a ultra luxury hotel. The front desk staff allowed us to check in at noon which was brilliant.
Our suite was so well appointed. full kitchen, (not that we used it but really nice), living area with sectional couch, desk, pull out circular table and 2 comfy queen beds. Large Flat screen TV welcoming us by name on the screen and the spacious well lit, well appointed bathroom with a shower with awesome water pressure made it feel very "spa like" Valet parking was a cinch, and cheap to store your car over night, and every staff member was so kind.
Ok so the breakfast (which I rarely do) was also really really fresh and healthy. fresh fruit, grains, egg sandwiches, bacon, scrambled eggs and a fresh waffle station with coolers full of fresh juices, and anything you wanted. Staff for breakfast was kind and attentive.
If you are looking for a 4 star experience on a 2 star budget. This is the spot. I think our 2 nights were less than $500?! I will be sure to be back! Thank you Residence Inn. Nice Work!!!!!!
