Older style Residence Inn with multiple buildings. Has been kept up to date with decor but outer doors are a little tough to be certain they are locked. Some of the buildings face fairly busy roads so better to ask for a more interior room. Location is close to both Rt 92 and Rt 101 so easy to get around. Also several restaurants very close along with Target for anything that you forget. There are a lot of people that stay here for long periods. They do not provide airport transportation but the taxi service works out well.

I stayed at this hotel from Dec 21-24, 2011. Booked it on the Marriott.com website and selected a room with feather pillows, rollaway bed and extra towels. When we got there the pillows were not the feather pillows, there was no rollaway bed in the room and there were no extra towels beside just two bath towels. Also there was a thong underwear hanging in the closet. I took a shower and then my daughter took a shower next. There was no hot water when my daughter went to take a shower. According to Arturo Saavedra, Asst. General Manager at Residence Inn - San Mateo, he stated that they had known about this problem for a long time as there were only 30 gallon water heater tanks which is insufficent to heat the entire rooms in that building. I talked to housekeeping and they told me to wait for 15 minutes so that there will be more hot water. My daughter waited for 15-20 minutes but there was still no hot water. My daughter got sick from that cold shower. The maid came to clean up the room at 9:15am on Dec 22 and woke us all up. Then the following day on Dec 23, we left the room at 9am and returned at 4pm. There was no maid service on Dec 23 and I had to call downstairs to find out why the room had not been cleaned. The lady at the front desk apologized and said they had forgot to clean the room. Arturo Saavedra, Asst. General Manager had the nerve to tell me that they were going to clean my room as it was one of the last ones on the list.

We stayed here for a night with our family of 4. The two story, 2 bath, with kitchen worked well for us. We were able to have 6 more family members visit for the evening for pizza, ice cream sundays and games. Clean, nicely decorated and large enough to accommodate us. I would stay here again if in the area.

Nothing too great, and nothing too bad about the place. Offers you decent (but boring, same everyday) breakfast and a cozy place to stay, the penthouse suites are especially designed for long term stays.
Stayed there foe 3 weeks, not a bad place to be
