Residence Inn by Marriott Dallas Plano/The Colony The Colony

horrible Marriott

Great front desk service,rooms are well equipped to be able to bring your own food to cook, bathrooms clean and up to date, breakfast had a good variety, nice courtyard

We stayed 2 nights. The room was very nice, looked upscale. Clean and fresh. The bed was pretty comfortable, I wish the blankets were softer though. The pull out sofa bed wasnt the most comfortable, but I don't think they ever are. The breakfast was amazing. Pancakes, waffles, scrambled eggs, ham, oatmeal, cereal and yogurt plus milk and juice.

As always, we enjoyed the Residence In. The one-bedroom layout with kitchenette was perfect for or needs. I also noticed there is a basketball court, plenty of atrium seating, and bicycles for rental, so it is good for families. It is along a major highway so it is not really walkable to any of the major destinations in the area (except Hawaiian Falls and the Five-Star complex, which I suppose you could bike to). The only negative was the breakfast, which is served 6-9 Mon-Fri. The quality of the food was likely fine but there was not enough and the food area is a small enclosure with several lines (for make-your-own toast, waffles, and pancakes). Be prepared for the cramped space and get there early enough to partake!

came in after 10pm. front desk clerk was friendly and accommodating. entire hotel smelt clean. room was extremely clean, much bigger than expected.
