Solid stay
The hotel itself is nice and the staff are extremely kind and welcoming. My only issue was the breakfast. The food was dry and not very tasty.

Great Place!
This is the second time we have stayed at the Residence Inn Polaris around Thanksgiving time and both times it has been great. We needed a place to stay while visiting our families and this was the perfect spot. The staff was kind and courteous. We have a toddler and loved that there was a separate bedroom so she could go to bed and we could still be up and not bother her. Also loved that there was breakfast available in the morning and that it was actually good ;) I would highly recommend staying here!

Never stayed in a Residence Inn before. We were happily surprised at how nice the room was. Staff at this location were top-notch. Only small complaint is that the walls seemed thin.

We attempt to stay at the Residence anytime we are in town for my son's hockey games/tournaments. We've stayed at many hotels for his hockey events over the years and this is without question the best of the best.
Thank you!

One night stay
Pros: clean, large room with great space, fantastic shower, nice patio with fire pit just outside the large lobby
Cons: paper thin walls, uncomfortable bed, very poor breakfast
Believe it or not the cons out weighed the pros. Probably will not return

We had an amazing stay! Check-in was easy, room was super clean, and service was fast. We had trouble with the air conditioning in our room and they checked it and had us in a new room within ten minutes.
