Residence Inn Fredericksburg

We stayed here for a night to break up the journey down to Tennessee. We had a lovely warm welcome and the friendly receptionist upgraded our family to a larger room and it was very clean and comfortable. The hotel is in a good location close to a little shopping mall and numerous restaurants. Breakfast was a very good selection of hot and cold items and was replenished frequently. Would definitely stay again.

Always a wonderful place to stay on business; free breakfast organized and prepared by Mark is consistently ready fresh and clean! Tammy the General Manager will go out of her way to ensure your stay is just how you'd like. Nice BBQ area with outdoor seating. I didn't have a pet but there is a big field next door and walking distance to the Mall.

We needed a place to stop en route further South, and this was an ideal spot. While the location is at the back of a mall, this also provided easy access to more than a dozen restaurants within minutes of the hotel. It also means you can go walking around the mall, or in the mall if the weather is not great. The location is clean and felt very safe. There is a little bit of road noise from I-95, but it did not interfere with a good night sleep. The breakfast offerings were terrific, and the man running things clearly took pride in his work and really worked to keep things stocked. I was super happy to see gluten free offerings that allow someone with celiac disease to partake with their family. The rooms were as expected—clean and well appointed. While the pool was closed for maintenance, I love that they have a bathtub (and that the stopper actually works). Good job!

No WiFi in the hotel, and even though management are aware, they did nothing to fix it. Instead, they pass you off to a third party help desk that is not even on premises. Useless. And staff extremely unhelpful. The phone in my brother’s room was broken. The sink in my bathroom was badly cracked/broken. Lights and outlets on either side of headboard inoperable. In short, as a high frequency Marriott traveler, this was one of the worst properties I’ve had the misfortune of staying. Spend your hard earned $300 at a hotel with staff that actually care and with rooms that are not in actual disrepair. Would give a zero if possible.

The place was convenient, clean and comfortable. We had a 2 bedroom with 2 bathroom. Not sure about the surrounding area as we came late at night. Driving to Florida we only stayed for one night. The pet fee for one night was $150, almost as much as the hotel. They could use a bit more dishes and cups.

I wish I could rate this hotel as a 4.75 instead of just a simple 4 or 5. The issues that are of concern do need to be brought to the property attention and alas Trip Advisor doesn't allow fractions so here we go. The hotel is conveniently located, and the staff were very pleasant and accommodating, always helpful ready to make suggestions. The breakfast attendant Mark is a superstar for this property. The breakfast in general was great, with a very nice variety and different options daily for the proteins which is appreciated. I have traveled all over the US and lots of the world. I can state unequivocally that Mark is the absolute best at his job that I have ever seen. He is constantly on the move; he anticipates and re-stocks before there is ever an issue. I was quite simply amazed at what one person can do. I spoke to him to say thanks. He clearly takes great pride in his job. Whatever he is being paid an hour I can assure you he is not only worth that, but more. In fact, assuming that the operators of this hotel have other properties I would humbly suggest that Mark be used as a trainer for newly hired breakfast staff. The room space was comfortable, temperature works as expected and good water pressure. Room was clean. Now to the couple of things that need improvement. The hotel needs a bit more focus on maintenance, sticky cabinet doors, some paint issues in public spaces and just in general the refreshes that must occur in a hotel. I also found the mattress was not very comfortable which impacted my sleep. Within the Marriott brand, the Westin Heavenly Bed (while most certainly not the least expensive) is worth consideration in my opinion. Consider this property as a good fit for your accomodation needs in the Fredericksburg area.

Very friendly staff. Staff is always accommodating. Room was great for our 3 night stay. Happy as always to have full kitchen access. Beds were very comfortable. Only one complaint but it really has to do with ALL Residence Inns—their shampoo/conditioner/gel are in bottles with light aqua labeling. The lights in Residence Inns are always pretty bad so reading the labels is impossible. Reported this to corporate. While doubtful anyone cares about this problem, it can certainly be easily fixed with purchase of different products. But again, this is no reflection on this particular hotel that we have visited often. Nice job, management.

Very comfortable suite with full kitchen and two rooms. Basic wifi was great, room is lovely and breakfast was very good for this type of hotel. Would definitely stay there again! Very well located, near a big mall and lots of good restaurants.

Having experienced dozens of price-included hotel breakfasts, I am happy to say this is one of the absolute best I have encountered. The gentleman running things is helpful, friendly, and incredibly efficient. He keeps everything fresh, fully stocked and neatly arrayed. The available options include hot entrees like scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, home fried potatoes. The are two waffle stations a fresh, hot, well-textured oatmeal with the—bar none—best selection of toppings I have seen in any hotel breakfast area ever. In addition to the usual brown sugar and raisins, there are flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, slivered almonds, walnuts, shredded coconut, banana chips, granola. Wow. At least four kinds of cereal are available with a selection of milks, yogurts, bagels, and muffins; three kids of juice, tea, coffee and even—first time I have seen this—a pitcher of cold brew ice coffee. Rooms are also comfy, spacious and nicely appointed. Good water pressure in the show and located right across the street from a good sized mall and collection of shops and restaurants. Definitely recommended.
