Room was superficially cleaned

2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 Nov 2021via mobile
The hotel staff was very nice, and at first the room seemed clean. We soon noticed a few things - there was a random, crumpled up, dirty paper under the bed; a coffee mug ring on the counter; a lettuce leaf behind the couch; the bed sheets did have a stain - at that point, just toss the sheets. Why put them out for guests? It was a good price and location for the wedding we attended but will think twice for staying with Marriott next time. Once again, the staff was great and accommodated our request for first floor room. We did not have extra toilet paper rolls in our room either.

Me and my team stayed at this location on two separate occasions. Great staff and wonderful rooms. Location is convenient to all major roads, but far enough to avoid traffic. All around excellent experience. Would recommend.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, after self-quarantining for 2 weeks, we drove 1200 miles to visit immunocompromised family members in the Philadelphia suburbs. We chose this Marriott Residence based on location (proximity), the Residence kitchenette, & the Marriott reputation. We paid for our room to “sit empty” for a full day before our check-in, & pre-declined housekeeping service during this pandemic. Our experience:
(1) upon check-in, the toilet was broken (needed a new “flush bar” in the tank, & the main kitchen lightbulb was burnt-out (in what was already a dark room) - - thus, immediately, despite our planning, housekeeping repairs were absolutely necessary
(2) by our 3rd night, VERY LOUD customers moved-in above our room; there was 3 hours of
“jumping” & “running” noise; it sounded like a bowling alley until 10:30 pm - - when brought to the attention of management, they suggested that we “change rooms” (during the pandemic which we had tried to prepare for!). Management would NOT move the noisy customers who did not know who to behave in a public hotel/residence
(3) the staff were generally pleasant (but unhelpful per The Above problems)
(4) this Residence quality is mediocre re:
(a) all our requests were fulfilled eg. additional closet hangers, extra roll of toilet paper ... but
each (modest) request was met with what seemed like “suspicion” on the part of the staff
(b) exterior room door/door handle was in a poor condition & difficult to “open” upon entry
(c) breakfast-to-go in a bag is complimentary
but is comprised of: cellophane wrapped muffin,
Dole canned fruit cup, & subpar coffee
(d) mediocre shower/tub etc
(e) very dim room lighting
(f) bedding, thankfully, was comfortable
We’ve stayed in many Marriotts over the years,
and we’ve come to expect a better level of service in a hotel/residence/room that’s in better condition than this one. It would have been easier to tolerate all of these shortcomings if
there wasn’t a serious pandemic, and if management had a “Can do” approach to solving/resolving a serious noise issue which developed midway in our one week stay; alas the attitude of management was “We can’t “.

The hotel staff tried to be helpful, but struggled with the reservation( had wrong check out date althgough correct in computer/reservation system) so they didnt clean or bring towels as requested (and had to arrange a day in advance) and the hotel needs better maintenance. Huge garbage pile at hotel was a smell and health problem, trash in common areas needed to be managed, rooms needed updating, tried to arrange housekeeping to get towels and they only came at 4p the day before check out. They mow the grass, but the upkeep otherwise is a problem

Fitness center was open but no towels or water

Dear melissas050NL,

Thank you for your feedback. I would like to apologize for the unpleasant experience at our hotel. Due to COVID many things are different these days such as we are not entering rooms on a daily basis to clean rooms. Marriott is limiting contact for the safety of our guests and associates. I am very sorry that we failed to bring you the amenities you needed in a timely manner. We are always looking to improve and we appreciate you staying with during these challenging times. We hope to see you again on your next stay in the future.

Valley Forge rd is famous for many things now add this hotel to the list. Nellie and Cheryl are the absolute bomb of hosts. Their smiles and their warmth is genuine. Clean and a super morning free breakfast. Easy in and off route 202

Clean, almost-luxurious suite, with three (!) closets, a smaller 'real' kitchen, dining table for three, king size bed --do wish they had queens/doubles but they have only kings :-( -
pull-out couch, and nice bathroom. Adequate bedding for the pull out couch (which was, as they always are, not comfortable). Maybe even more impressive was the lovely included breakfast buffet in the morning, and the friendly staff both at check-in and during breakfast. Older Asian woman named Ann and man named Phil are gems. THANK YOU, Residence Inn! (I'll be back if you get some queen-size beds. We are a family of 4-5, not a couple...) Oh, there's a strip of green in back perfect for tossing a football, and apparently also a running trail although I didn't see. Looks like a great place for a summer stay, incl with the outdoor pool and firepit.

Room tip: All rooms are king beds only, unfortunately
