Unfortunately, I won't return in the future.
Pros:

The pool was a nice size (which is why we booked here). I was able to let my niece and nephews swim as well as my son and daughter throughout our stay. The staff was very sweet, professional, patient and attentive. The breakfast was nice and I loved the fruit and water in the lobby.

Cons:

Last year my family went glamping during Spring Break, I paid about $1700, we didn't get to go swimming at all, and I had to bring a lot of stuff and still found I should have brought more. This year I wanted to let the kids swim, cut the price, and still be able to cook so we didn't have to eat out every night. When we arrived, I got mixed information on when I had to pay and what I had to pay. Each night was a different price when I thought I was getting a standard price for all 4 nights with Booking.com. I didn't know I had to have all of the price of the stay held during check in. I was waiting for a check to clear in order to pay the full amount at check out. So when I got the cash total out the next day from the bank to pay for the whole stay, I was surprised when the the front desk said I didn't have to pay until I checked out. I put the cash back in 2 of my accounts. Then the next day I was told I had to put the whole amount on hold again. I ended up having to use 2 debit cards to continue my stay. It was a lot of back and forth. Very inconvenient. Then I found out if I wanted to pay in cash when I checked out it could take 7-10 days for the holds to be lifted and my money to be refunded back into my accounts. I also paid about $250 more for the whole thing than I was originally quoted through the website, there was no cook ware so I had to go to my house to get a skillet and casserole dish to cook, the trash and towels were not refreshed every day unless I asked, and we ended up eating out more than cooking. I was not impressed with the bed's pillow top and felt it was not as comfortable as I had hoped. There was also a lot of construction going on in the area so there was constant noise outside.

It was well worth the money
Pros:

We enjoyed the pool. Breakfast was pretty good. That staff made the stay enjoyable. We liked our room a lot. The maintenance guy is polite and works very hard to keep things running right. The front desk guy was also polite and worked hard to keep all of the customers happy. And the cleaning people were busy doing their job. And they do it very well. They are also very kind. Together they all operate like well oiled machine. We will be back.

Cons:

The hot tub wasnt working. The place is a little hard to find.

We enjoyed it!
Pros:

The location was great! The suite was nice and worked perfectly for our small family. The staff were very friendly and allowed an early check in.

Cons:

Then breakfast ended at 9am which we thought was a bit early to end for those on vacation or leisure travel.

We have stayed residence inn before and they were wonderful but not this one
Pros:

The location was great the breakfast was good.

Cons:

Rooms were outdated. Not enough lights, asked them to give us a play pen for our 1 year old and it looked liked something they took for the dumpster. On one side of the bed it smelled like pee. The bed was very hard, like sleeping on the floor.
