“Better in Person than via the Web”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

The pictures on the web for this place are out of date. The room had new flat screen TVs although it was tricky to get the one in the living area to work. The desk clerk walked me through it and there was no problem the rest of the stay. The place is clean and it was nice to check in and participate in the social hour with wine and chili. The rooms are rather small but nice. Good, deep bathtub and lots of hot water. Staff was helpful. Breakfast..well, it beat going out in the snow.. the oatmeal was instant and runny (already made) and everything else was just ok. I have had better at other residence inn's so I am not sure what is up with that. However, the staff was nice and they keep the place clean during the breakfast hours. The selection in the small store was ok and staff provided ice because no one had told us the frig had an ice maker that required us to turn on. There were newspapers during the week but none on the weekend, which was a pain since it was well below freezing outside and there are no stores within walking distance. This place is near the airport and right across from the hospital. Convenient if that is the destination, not so much if you need quiet. Lots of ambulance noise at night. Saturday night was strange because the lobby area seemed to be taken over by a private party and was thus unavailable to other guests. The coffee here is OK. Huge coffee pot in the room but the coffee pods only make 4 cups. I put two in the basket and only eight cups of coffee and it was ok. Fortunately just under HWY 69 on Jefferson, there is a Starbucks. Beds are alright, nothing to write home about. For the most part, a very pleasant experience.

“Perfect for work in the Fort Wayne area”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2011

I've rarely ever been disappointed in any Residence Inn and this is no different. This hotel is clean, in a nice area, nearby decent restaurants, shops and close to major highways. I never had any troubles and have stayed at this hotel three times for work over the last few years. The rooms are clean, affordable and modernized. The WI-FI always works great and is included. If you're in the Fort Wayne area and want a nice affordable stay with great amenities, I recommend this hotel.

“Clean, New, and Very Comfortable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 October 2011

This was my second stay at this Residence Inn, which is located right off of I-69 near many shops and restaurants. The hotel is located near a hospital in an area with many office buildings.

I stayed at this property during business travel. My room was a large studio suite with a comfortable king bed and a gas fireplace. The hotel itself is relatively new, so all of the furniture and the appliances in the kitchen were very nice. The kitchen was fully stocked and had granite countertops. The sink are in the bathroom also had the granite.

The living room area included a nice sized desk, a couch, a reclining chair, and flat screen TV.

A small complimentary evening meal is served in the dining area Monday through Thursday, and the complimentary hot breakfast was very good.

Compared to a standard hotel room, the value in staying at a property cannot be beat.

Room Tip: Great property for business travel.

“Great...but get non-highway side, quiet room”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

Everything about this hotel is great, with the usual Residence Inn standards - fresh decorating, good housekeeping, friendly front desk staff and hospitality nights. The hotel is near restaurants, and a good grocery store (Fresh Market) and an upscale shopping center are only a couple of miles down the road. Our 3rd floor, courtyard-facing room seemed to be under some kind of motor on the roof which was a bit noisy so we switched to another room, still on the 3rd floor. The only room available was facing towards the highway area. I would avoid this next time! The roar of motorcycles and trucks disrupted my sleep, especially in the early morning when commuter traffic began. If you're a sound sleeper, then this might not be a problem as the buildings are set away from the road a little, not directly next to it. (The hotel is very close to a hospital complex; however, the ambulances must use another entrance as they were not a problem.) Otherwise, a great experience and we will return. We have usually stayed for a week or longer, twice a year, when visiting family, at what used to be a R.I. on the north side of the city. It had 2 bedroom lofts which we loved but it has been changed to a Stay Inn (non-Marriott brand.)

Room Tip: Ask for a courtyard-side room, away from the highway.
