At Residence Inn by Marriott Ocala, guests frequently praise friendly, welcoming staff, spacious quiet suites with kitchenettes, and a convenient location near the interstate, while several also appreciate the well liked pool.
Feedback on cleanliness and maintenance is mixed, with repeated complaints about infrequent housekeeping and towel shortages, dated furnishings and odors, and occasional issues like clogged drains, inoperable fireplaces, or a malfunctioning TV. Breakfast is generally liked, with some gluten free options mentioned, but multiple reviews cite inconsistent quality and a few reports of rude behavior from breakfast staff. Best suited to travelers prioritizing convenience over perfection.

This was our 3rd visit to this hotel due to showing horses at WEC. Cons: Kitchen staff is extremely rude and confrontational. “Rose” has been an issue during all of our stays and monitors the breakfast area like the “soup nat from sienfield” I have spoken with manager Kevin and was told “not to stay at his property if I had any issues with Rose.” It’s really a shame this issue doesn’t get addressed as their have been multiple complaints dating back over a year about her rude inhospitable behavior. PROS: Front desk staff & housekeeping extremely friendly and helpful. Always smiling and willing to help with anything that needs to be done. The room was comfortable and clean. The pool was clean and had great lounge areas. We love the “apartment” feel of the rooms the full kitchen is great! especially bc we are there for 4-7 days with a child. The location is safe and there is shopping and dining close by.

The mid-stay changeover from proper plates and cutlery to plastic-wrapped plastic was very disappointing and wasteful. One of the breakfast staff was arrogant and bossy, criticising us for using the wooden board beside the toaster for slicing a bagel, for example. Apparently this encouraged germs and we should have used a plate. She then stood, watching proceedings, like a prison warden. The room was comfortable and provided all our needs. Other staff members very pleasant. Disappointed by lack of bar and restaurant, even though Marriott's own website says there is one. The breakfast was adequate, but no more than that. No restaurants with walking distance due to location, so car essential. Good laundry facilities, pool and sitting out areas.

Having a separate room and kitchen was wonderful, but everything was filthy. Boogers on the wall, hair balls under the sofa couch, staind linens, and sagging wallpaper. We were at least excited for the hot tub, but that was drained and not in use. That being said the staff was the friendliest I've come across and the location is extremely convenient.

Pleasant check in experience. Nice room. Nice bedroom area. Nice common areas. Bedroom carpet had just been cleaned and had chemical smell. The hotel staff tried to deodorize but it still was a pretty strong smell. The bath drain was blocked or slow but we managed. Pool was great. Walked to dinner.

Easy to get to off the interstate. The hotel itself needs a deep clean. Our room had heavy dust. The carpets throughout the building need a deep cleaning. Breakfast was decent if you don’t have the extra time or want to visit Cracker Barrel right across the way. I witnessed 3 customers complaining about issues in their rooms. The staff remained nice. Overall, glad they had an opening last minute but wouldnt plan on staying again.

We had stayed at this property about 10 years ago and it was in really great shape back then. We recently needed to stay the night and the staff are very friendly and everything about the customer service was excellent. The facility is getting really beat-up. The halls had a funky scent which both my wife and I commented on. The room was clean as it could be and the bed was comfortable. The location is great right near the interstate with plenty of food options. Our only complaint is the the facility really needs to be updated to compete with other hotels in the area.

All of the staff I met were all wonderful. Our first day, the receptionist put us in a room close by our car after the conversation about parking occurred. My stay was very pleasant. The room was impeccable. Everyone even down to housekeeping was thoughtful. Everything thing we needed they were so helpful. I'm out in Ocala again, I will definitely go back. We'll stick with tried and true. Thank you everyone at Marriott Inn in Ocala!!!

We had a great stay. The kids liked the pool, basketball court, and the breakfast. Kevin, a receptionist, was very helpful and welcoming. The breakfast staff and housekeepers were very friendly and helpful as well. Our room was not spit-spot when we arrived, but it wouldn't affect us staying again.

Disappointed about the hotel, the room picture was misleading, included a fireplace and there was none , no soap for hand washing in the bathroom, the tub was clogged very slow draining, blood stained shower curtain. I reported to front desk and they offered to take care next day in the morning. The breakfast was good.

Staff, from front desk attendant to those who prepared & monitored breakfast area were very friendly, helpful, and welcoming! The hotel was clean, quiet and centrally located. Only disappointment is that the fireplaces were not operable in rooms & we understand there are plans to remove them. My humble voice says reconsider that...those are part of the ambiance for many of us. We were looking forward to turning it on in our suite but couldn't. That's the reason for 4 vs. 5 stars for this review.

Overall it was very good. The only negative is that our room was a bit musty smelling the entire time. We thought maybe the room had not been used for a while but came to the conclusion that it was pet related since this is a pet-friendly hotel. It seems that pets should be limited to certain rooms while all other rooms should be pet free. This seems to be more and more of a problem at many places these days. Otherwise we loved it.

This was our 3rd visit to this hotel due to showing horses at WEC. Cons: Kitchen staff is extremely rude and confrontational. “Rose” has been an issue during all of our stays and monitors the breakfast area like the “soup nat from sienfield” I have spoken with manager Kevin and was told “not to stay at his property if I had any issues with Rose.” It’s really a shame this issue doesn’t get addressed as their have been multiple complaints dating back over a year about her rude inhospitable behavior. PROS: Front desk staff & housekeeping extremely friendly and helpful. Always smiling and willing to help with anything that needs to be done. The room was comfortable and clean. The pool was clean and had great lounge areas. We love the “apartment” feel of the rooms the full kitchen is great! especially bc we are there for 4-7 days with a child. The location is safe and there is shopping and dining close by.

This policy of cleaning the rooms every 3 days does not work when you are staying there for multiple nights. The room feels gross after a while. She came into the room and did nothing

The associates were friendly and accommodating. However, we booked a four night stay for four people and were told that our room would only be serviced on the third day. I didn't mind this but if the room is only serviced once in 3 days and you know there are four people, then why only 3 towels in the bathroom, one makeup wipe on the counter? If you don't want to service the room every day then think about the amount of items a family of four would need. Why should we be inconvenienced every time we need a fresh towel. At least enough items for everyone to have their own towels... The continental breakfast was very unappealing as well, and the associate was rude to my child when he didn't engage with her. He's 8.

The location is safe and there is shopping and dining close by.
This was our 3rd visit to this hotel due to showing horses at WEC. Cons: Kitchen staff is extremely rude and confrontational. “Rose” has been an issue during all of our stays and monitors the breakfast area like the “soup nat from sienfield” I have spoken with manager Kevin and was told “not to stay at his property if I had any issues with Rose.” It’s really a shame this issue doesn’t get addressed as their have been multiple complaints dating back over a year about her rude inhospitable behavior.

Staff, from front desk attendant to those who prepared & monitored breakfast area were very friendly, helpful, and welcoming! The hotel was clean, quiet and centrally located. Only disappointment is that the fireplaces were not operable in rooms & we understand there are plans to remove them. My humble voice says reconsider that...those are part of the ambiance for many of us. We were looking forward to turning it on in our suite but couldn't. That's the reason for 4 vs. 5 stars for this review.

The mid-stay changeover from proper plates and cutlery to plastic-wrapped plastic was very disappointing and wasteful. One of the breakfast staff was arrogant and bossy, criticising us for using the wooden board beside the toaster for slicing a bagel, for example. Apparently this encouraged germs and we should have used a plate. She then stood, watching proceedings, like a prison warden. The room was comfortable and provided all our needs. Other staff members very pleasant. Disappointed by lack of bar and restaurant, even though Marriott's own website says there is one. The breakfast was adequate, but no more than that. No restaurants with walking distance due to location, so car essential. Good laundry facilities, pool and sitting out areas.

Pleasant check in experience. Nice room. Nice bedroom area. Nice common areas. Bedroom carpet had just been cleaned and had chemical smell. The hotel staff tried to deodorize but it still was a pretty strong smell. The bath drain was blocked or slow but we managed. Pool was great. Walked to dinner.

Easy to get to off the interstate. The hotel itself needs a deep clean. Our room had heavy dust. The carpets throughout the building need a deep cleaning. Breakfast was decent if you don’t have the extra time or want to visit Cracker Barrel right across the way. I witnessed 3 customers complaining about issues in their rooms. The staff remained nice. Overall, glad they had an opening last minute but wouldnt plan on staying again.

We had stayed at this property about 10 years ago and it was in really great shape back then. We recently needed to stay the night and the staff are very friendly and everything about the customer service was excellent. The facility is getting really beat-up. The halls had a funky scent which both my wife and I commented on. The room was clean as it could be and the bed was comfortable. The location is great right near the interstate with plenty of food options. Our only complaint is the the facility really needs to be updated to compete with other hotels in the area.

Dining
Breakfast is commonly described as good with decent variety, and gluten free options are noted. Experiences are inconsistent though, with some finding it average or unappealing and repeated complaints about rude behavior from breakfast staff.

The associates were friendly and accommodating. However, we booked a four night stay for four people and were told that our room would only be serviced on the third day. I didn't mind this but if the room is only serviced once in 3 days and you know there are four people, then why only 3 towels in the bathroom, one makeup wipe on the counter? If you don't want to service the room every day then think about the amount of items a family of four would need. Why should we be inconvenienced every time we need a fresh towel. At least enough items for everyone to have their own towels... The continental breakfast was very unappealing as well, and the associate was rude to my child when he didn't engage with her. He's 8.

Felt like they just did a refresh. Very well maintained. Had a great nights sleep. Annoyed by the thermostat. It wouldn’t go below 70. I could have called the front desk to ask for help but it wasn’t that big of a deal. I would stay there again.
