    Great place to stay 3 minutes from FSU. Clean and modern. We stayed in a king suite and bed was comfortable, sleeper sofa comfortable. Will stay there again.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The 5th floor was nice and quiet, the room was super clean and the beds are very comfortable. We have stayed here several times as our daughter attends FSU. The only critique is that the bottom floors can be a little loud at times with people and traffic outside, but it is a college town after all. Excellent stay and we like this hotel the best out of the 3 that are on/near campus and within walking distance.

    Parking was $35 even though it is their property and I was a paying guest?

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Loved the full kitchen and complimentary airport shuttle. Also breakfast was really good! A lot of variety for both cold and hot breakfast. Pool looked nice but didn't get a chance to enjoy.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I chose this hotel for the location and it did not disappoint! Central location, can walk to nearby events, restaurants and right across the street is the civic center. Our room was so nice and clean. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be booking for future Tallahassee trips!

    Had to pay for mediocre parking

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Breakfast was awesome and we walked to the Civic Center to see a concert. The room was great and the bed was very comfortable

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The staff was amazing The street noise and the breakfast

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Location, and cleanliness, and the front desk lady. The pillows are very soft, and don’t provide much support for the neck. So there was no good sleep quality.

    Hotel.com let me down with guarantee to cancel up to arrival time or resolve my inability to document cancellation after multiple attempts. I talked directly with hotel and cancelled reservation and hotel.com kept insisting they could not get this verified with hotel. Hotel managers indicate stay was cancelled early in morning and no charges were posted so I should not have been charged for two days. This makes me not want to consider Hotel.com in future. Hopefully someone can be respectful and call me to correct this error (or possibly deliberate problem).

    This is probably the best hotel. You can stay at close to the Florida State University campus. Good parking easy access good breakfast, clean rooms, friendly staff.

    Spacious modern suite with large refrigerator, microwave, huge TV, work area, good free internet, limited but adequate fitness center - all very clean and functioning. When I arrived at airport, I called hotel and a free van was sent within 15 minutes to pick me up; leaving the same in reverse for 15-minute drive to airport. So I was able to avoid renting a car, as my conference site (Business School at FSU) was visible out my window, so I could walk. (Staff even offered - unprompted - to drive me to my meeting.) The hotel is essentially on the campus of FSU - that's both a plus and the only minus for me, as one night a student drove around 1:00am-1:30am with boombox blaring. That is not the hotel's fault. But a traveler might want to request a room on higher floor and not facing the street. Immediate area restaurants cater to student clientele, so may need to drive or Uber to upscale dining. Staff very friendly and helpful. I was surprised by getting full breakfast (no extra cost) instead of barebones continental: eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles, oatmeal, dry cereal, yogurt, fruit, etc. I would have preferred toning down the music in the common areas - a fault noted by other reviewers as well. In nearly all areas, the Residence Inn exceeded my expectations.

    It was great wish we had booked an extra day!! Liked everything

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Ive been wanting to stay at this RI in Tally but it’s usually booked. I can see why. Amazing location and very clean. Great staff and a step above breakfast. Ive been to way to many complimentary breakfasts in my travel. Top 3. This was a mix work/leisure trip and having the room types RI provide always allows that balance.

    Location Charged $15.00 for a frozen pot pie at the market downstairs in the lobby. What?! Also could not get Uber Eats delivered to room had to go to lobby. $450 a night??? Very expensive tiny room. No good luggage carts only the tiny airport push ones. Pool/jacuzzi had fiber insulation floating on top got in us and caused allergic reactions/itching.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Our room was quiet, clean, and had all the amenities we needed for a pleasant stay. The bed was comfortable. It looks like most of the hotel and rooms have been fairly recently renovated with the exception of the shower/ toilet area. Once these areas are renovated to be on par with the rest of the room, it will be the perfect stay!

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    My room was very clean. The receptionist was very helpful. The location was great for my daughter’s college tour. The included breakfast options was a wonderful bonus. The elevators seemed to be in need of repair. The hallway carpeting could use a refresh.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    My only complaint was we checked in late in the evening with a reservation and the room we were givien was facing the street. Loud music is played until 10pm which the front desk told us when we tried to change rooms. We also heard loud street noise until 3 am. we have stayed at this hotel several times without having a room facing the street. My suggestion is check in early. We also paid the same price as we would have if we werent facing the street.

    Location The bathroom seems stained

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Great location, walking distance to College Town and likely to campus if you're there for a long enough time to get comfortable.
