Residence Inn Stockton

All the staff were very friendly and efficient . We were there for medical appts not vacation. Nice surroundings and away from the busy freeway and downtown. Will definitely use this hotel again. Breakfast was ok but breakfast area was clean and comfortable

Off of Interstate 5, this hotel is just 4 miles from downtown. Its location is beautiful, and just one mile down a tree-lined street to the marina and a jogging path along the water. There is a beautiful enclosed courtyard where one can have coffee or just enjoy the outdoors. The front desk staff is friendly and really aims to please. Housekeeping was everyday (so nice) even though the website says every other day. I wanted to give this place a 5-star review, but the breakfast person after the first two days was not warm and and helpful. The first two days, we had a wonderful, cheery lady that came over from the Courtyard next door. She made you feel welcomed, and I wanted to come to breakfast. She went out of her way to make sure we had everything we wanted or needed. She took pride in her work and presentation (oranges and ice in the water carafe), lots of fresh fruit salad - all the way to the end of breakfast. And, the breakfast area was spotless and inviting. Saturday, this lady had left and the "normal" person did breakfast. She was grumpy and unsmiling. We asked for fruit salad for two days, and she said there was none - even though we could see melons sitting on the counter. She brought out a big plastic bowl full of scrambled eggs and just scooped them to refill the nice silver dish. I mean, sure, we know the eggs aren't fried fresh, but how difficult would it be to bring a silver serving dish out already filled up and replace it with the empty one. The water carafe was just that - no ice and no sliced fruit. I asked her how she was doing, being friendly, and she said "I'll be better in an hour when I'm off." And, management came to talk to her and she raised her voice and started griping. Management nicely reminded her that guests were around, and she lowered her voice." No matter, this person needs an attitude adjustment. The best person to train her would be the wonderful lady from the Courtyard restaurant, who was an absolute joy.

This might be one of most expensive hotels in Stockton. However, it's main advantage is that it's tucked into a quiet dead end street about one block from busy March Lane. So it's quiet but only a 5-10 min drive from shopping, fast food, decent restaurants, etc. Rooms are comfortable but not luxurious. Breakfast is B level. Nothing to complain about or rave about. Parking is free and plentiful

Check-in was less than welcoming — do you have a reservation, what's your name, where's your ID, here's your key. Heck, start with "welcome to the Residence Inn" so I don't feel like I'm inconveniencing you by walking into your lobby. There was no bedding for the pull-out sofa and the kitchen looked fine — at first. I was tying my shoes and looked across the room only to see eggshells under the counter with a thick layer of dirt. Gross. With all the Marriott post-COVID "we're super-clean" messaging, it's more than a little disconcerting. I'll be traveling to Stockton a lot over the next few years, so I guess I'll find somewhere else to stay despite my BONVOY membership.

The staff is lovely, cleaners are kind and I am left alone which is beautiful. They also take pets, and the place is extremely clean. This is the one spot I stay at every time I need alone time. Food is nearby too, car ride, yet not far...........
