Mostly really good
The good, hotel staff professional, friendly, & helpful. Rooms are clean, plenty of luggage carts available. The bad, reception area needs to draw more attention to guests registering, parking spaces have many compact spaces, mostly full size sedans and larger in the lot. breakfast layout leads to groups of people standing around, no flow, and sitting area over crowded.

It was a place to sleep while I spent my day with family. I didn’t do much at the inn. I did eat the complementary breakfast one morning and found it quite good with a variety of choices.

Loved the friendly, kind, and helpful staff so much, that makes the biggest difference to us when we decide on a hotel. We also were in town for my wife's moms funeral and it meant the world to us to be in such a wonderful environment, it was very clean, food was amazing for breakfast, and the location was close to trails, restaurants, the Palomar Airport, etc. Loved every second of our stay at Residence Inn!

Spacious room, friendly staff and very good breakfast options. The one area that needs attention would be the guest laundry, not a good space.
