What guests think

Across recent reviews of Residence Inn by Marriott Spartanburg, travelers consistently praise friendly staff, solid breakfasts, and spacious, apartment-style suites, while noting dated interiors, intermittent maintenance problems, occasional odors, and surprise parking fees that detract from overall value.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed, with reports of musty or urine smells, leftover trash, pests, and mold contrasted by several comments calling rooms or the property clean. Guests like the apartment-style layouts, but some encountered noisy AC, limited hot water, broken fixtures or locks, and bright exterior lights seeping through shades. The setting is generally quiet and near highway conveniences, and the pool draws praise, though construction detours and trailer parking can be tricky. Good fit for guests comfortable with a lived-in property in exchange for extra space.

The grounds are beautiful, and I really liked that it is townhome like hotel. Each unit has a separate entrance. The rooms itself are clean but pretty dated, floppy outlets, our room (312) had a smell to it, so we had our sliding door open a lot. But the hotel didn’t charge the arm and a leg for it, so we got what we paid for. Also, we prepaid our room through Expedia, the hotel charged us a daily parking fee, which no one warned us about when I booked it or during the checkout. It was not a lot of money, but the fact how it was done left aftertaste… Overall it was an okey property, but I am not sure I would stay there again

This was a fabulous place to stay. The room was an apartment. The bed was comfortable, the shower had enough water pressure, there’s an outdoor pool and a pickle ball court. Breakfast was great and every staff member I met was friendly and made me feel welcome. Five stars.

The property has become a bit worn, showing age. This is very true of the grounds and exterior. However, the staff are great for the moment you arrive thru departure, informative and friendly.

The staff was fabulous! Very, very helpful and kind with our late check in, (after mid night). The breakfast room and food were wonderful. We were dissapointed with the cleanliness of our room. Old bathroom and perhaps it had been a pet friendly room? Manager said they will take care of it for the next guest. The grounds and spaciousness of the suites are great, and this is a super place to bring kids with a nice pool.

Only drawback for me was no elevator. I had taken my mom to a family event and wasn’t aware of this and was booked on 2nd floor. Found out this was a first generation Residence Inn. Set up and everything was great but just made it hard on my 85 year old mom with no elevator

The room was not very clean (mainly the bathrooms). The refrigerator was not cold and our food ruined. We stayed for two nights and housekeeping did not come to visit so we had a tiny overflowing trash can and had to ask for new towels. Rooms badly need updating. The staff was friendly and the pool was very clean.

Wasn’t impressed! Typically Residence Inn are nice and consistent. From the moment you entered the room there was an overpowering smell of something old or air freshener dumped into the carpet. Hair on the shower walls and toilet seat was dirty. We were late to an event and decided to go to the convenience store and just sanitize it ourself. Breakfast hours were from 6:30 to 9am on a Sunday which was also disappointing. They did build a newer location Downtown and that’s where I thought I was staying. I never will return

The property looks nice from the outside. Reception and eating area are updated and clean. The concept of the room is nice because it’s a good size studio. So it’s cozy. Being there twice I was unhappy with the cleanliness and condition of the room. I found items still in room from prior guests. My second room smelled like him too Showers, air vents and ceilings are moldy. The appliances seemed as if they were on their last leg.

We were beginning to wonder if the room had been cleaned. We had an issue with the door and we were immediately assigned to a new room. It was handicap room and smelled better. We had a good stay. Parking was great. We were in a first floor room.

Great location. First impression was great. We quickly figured out that we could take one hot shower or two lukewarm showers at a time, difficult when there’s3 of us. Left donuts on the counter , few hours later we returned to a thousand ants. We didn’t bother alerting anybody about the water or ants. Left two pillows when we checked out and called the next day and they had them so we arranged for a pickup. Loved the location and layout of room but will not stay there again.

The room is large and layout is a lot like an apartment. Our table had burn holes, the upstairs tv didn’t work, and the downstairs bathroom tub didn’t drain. Just not a stay you expect from a Marriott more like a red roof inn.

When we came to check-in my reservation was cancelled without any notification. They told me that they send me an email, but i was not able to find one. Also, when we came and realized that we have no place to stay nobody offers us help to find a new place. I have to drive to Sheraton next door and their stuff help me to find the room in the city.

The room 111 was unclean. Had popcorn and debris under the couch. Moreover, the room had a strong mildew odor. Toilet didn't flush properly, because the chain had come loose. No maintenance person around to fix. Therefore, I had to fix myself. also, the room is dark and gloomy, when the curtains are not opened. Need more lighting in the appropriate dark area. The bed was hard . Really small for a queen size. Breakfast was poor. how many items are you going to serve sausages. What happened to the bacon? Or, links? This room certainly deserves a make over; and please clean the carpet.
