Residence Inn by Marriott – Silicon Valley II

Their service is deteriorating tear after year. I stay in this place almost every year. their service was very good couple of years ago. but now it seems they don’t care. the breakfast and supper provided is worse to say the least. if I have an option, I will never choose this place. better to stay in staybridge hotels.

Came for a 2 night 3 days stay and it was such a cute hotel! They’re like little houses. We walk into our room and automatically see a small kitchen, the living area is right in front of you and the bed across the room. Walk down a tiny hallway to the sinks and the bathroom. I had a problem turning off the air bc it was automatically on and it was super cold that day. They provide free breakfast in the check in/​out building near the pool, upstairs for their guests which was okay, but it’s free! That same building has a small gym (also 2^nd floor). So couldn’t complain. If you want to cook your own meals in your room, it already comes with plates and cups. The only thing we didn’t notice was silverware, pots and pans. It has a microwave, refrigerator, of course oven and stove. Staff was friendly too!

I want to come in and not even check out! Silicon valley 2 clean rooms relax 24 hours! :)

I called the operator named and a lady named cecila answered. When I asked for the price for the penthouse suite, she hanged up… how rude!!! She has poor customer service skills

My stay was at this residence inn was nice. Sandeep was very courteous at the end of my stay I was given a receipt of 150 and my debit has been charged 180 an extra 30 more than what we were told. So I’ve decided to call back and I spoke to Roxanne and the 30 dollars was for accidental charges… but I was never notified upon checkout. So now I have to wait 7 to 10 business days for money to refunded back.

I was here for three weeks and this place did a fantastic job of making me feel at home. I was on the ground floor in building 6, and my suite was updated with a nice kitchen and not a single bug seen anywhere (believe me, I hate crawly things and I would have noticed!). Every time I didn’t put the «no service needed» magnet on the door, housekeeping had the place looking lovely when I returned, even washing a dish or two if I set a coffee mug or spoon in the sink.
The breakfast was totally serviceable… I think I ate eggs, rice and kimchi just about every morning, but the overall spread was much better than I anticipated (the breakfast sandwiches were especially good when available). When the drinks and food were available in the evenings, that seemed decent also… I was happy to drink their free 21^st Amendment Hell or High Watermelon!
Everyone was so friendly and accommodating and answered any questions we had. Way to make business travel painless and even pleasant, Residence Inn! I’d be thrilled to have the company put me up here again.

Really great place for long term stay. Stayed here for 6 weeks in studio. Very professional front desk and very nice staff.

The rooms are pretty nice, the people are excellent, the snacks they give aren’t as good as the actual food they used to offer, but still cool and free beer is awesome! The internet, HOWEVER, is bad. It is ATROCIOUS to say the least! Whomever is in charge of it should feel really bad about themselves and should cry themselves to sleep at night! In this day and age, in the heart of silicon valley they have no excuse for internet this bad!

The staff at the hotel are all helpful. The breakfasts are very good, lots of great options, and that is especially great when you have to stay here for many days in a row. The facility is nice and is maintained well, but the electricity went out for at least 10 hours one of the days, into the night. The hotel could not control the outage, it was PG & E that did it, and the desk tried to help by relocating or giving flashlights.
It is great that they are pet friendly since we had to move out of our house for repairs from flooding. I know that is a fairly common reason folks stay here, in addition to working in the area, but it is great that you can bring the pets out of the crisis.
The only negative is that the chairs and couch and bed are not nearly as comfortable as our home and that is hard for more than one or two days. The décor is lovely, but is prettier than functional. The handicapped shower is good, bars and good flooring you cannot slip on! The toilet is the right height, and the rest of the room is pretty good for handicapped accessibility.
It is nice to have a kitchen available and to have laundry on site. The staff that clean the room are great, the food service people go the extra mile to make sure that you are served exactly what you want, the front desk is always helpful in any way they can be and the maintenance staff is always available if you have any concerns.

Awesome place to stay. I stayed in one of the two floor rooms. It was great experience. Loved the fire pit area.

Really lovely place to stay. It honestly feels like an apartment since you have a ton of space, a full kitchen, LOTS of places to sleep (ours has 2 beds and a pullout couch) and 2 bathrooms.
The biggest win for us was that it is pet friendly! Such a great option.
The staff is incredibly friendly — haven’t encountered anyone grumpy or mean which is awesome. They always greet you with a smile on their faces which is very appreciated.
ALSO — free breakfast every day and free dinner Monday — Thursday. Awesome? Yes.

We were put up here through work until we found a place — but what a great place to be put up!
For starters it’s like you have your own apartment — your own front door with a fully equipped kitchen and all the cutlery/​crockery etc. A huge flat screen TV, plenty of towels and your room cleaned every day. Oh and did I mention free wifi?
This is before I start on the free brekky every morning — which varies day to day, but you have cooked breakfast, cereal, toast, bagels, muffins, fresh fruit and yogurts, waffles, and even rice/​kimchi/​boiled eggs etc.
Monday to Thursday they also have ‘happy hour’ from 6 – 7:30pm where they serve free wine and beer and what they call a ‘light supper’ but was certainly enough for me to call dinner. It’s buffet style so you an help yourself to as much or as little as you like, and again, they vary it — some nights BBQ, others Italian, sometimes Spanish. I don’t think we had the same thing twice in the two weeks we were there.
There’s free coffee, tea and hot chocolate on tap throughout the day at reception, and in the afternoons they put out cookies! (I promise, there’s more to this place than just the food…)
There’s a pool, 24 hour laundry facilities, plus they’ll even take your dry cleaning and pick up your groceries for you if you want. There’s plenty of free parking and you’re literally round the corner from not only the Theme Park but also most of the big tech companies in Silicon Valley — so pretty awesome for business and pleasure.
In short, I rate this place very highly. The staff were all awesome, and if there was an option for a sixth star — I would definitely award it.

The San Francisco Bay Area can be very spacious. We live in a large community that consists of most of Northern California. The Peninsula and the South Bay can be far at times. On a strong night out, celebrating one of the best weddings I’ve ever experienced, sometimes it’s safer to stay at a nearby hotel.
The Residence Inn Silicon Valley II fits perfectly for a stay. The lobby to your right as soon as you enter the premises, I was welcomed by two lovely Front Office. I needed to print something in the business center, conveniently located to the right as soon as you step in. The two girls had fun music on, making the vibe comforting for their guests.
Perla did an excellent check in. With ease and great conversation. She is a great asset to the Marriott family.
The rooms are spacious, the grounds clean. Everything in working order. Internet fast enough for being free.
The breakfast in the morning could use a little work. Around 30 minutes left before it ended, the hot entrée was almost out. The line for the waffle maker, always a popular part of all Residence Inns, was long. This could be there is only one and I presume the property books at an average of above 74%. Targeted for families and long stays, maybe more food for the families would be good for the property.
There was only one busser. She seemed shy, but nice enough.
I would definitely stay at this Residence Inn again next time I’m on that side of the Bay.

breakfast was great. The rooms where clean. We had a little trouble getting started. The customer service could have been a little better at the start.
But overall I’d recommend it.

Without a doubt worth it.
I had to stay here one night and so I settled on this spot although I knew nothing about it. And to my surprise it is fantastic.
Every room is a suite with its own kitchenette, lounge area (sofa and tv), large closet and normal hotel bathroom.
I mean this isn’t a four seasons but I found the price to quality comparable to any five star hotel.
The buffet in the morning was right up my alley with rice, eggs, eggs with spinach, ham, potatoes, bagels, muffins, cereals, fruit, miso soup mix, kimchi, hard booked eggs, yogurt, milk, oj, cranberry juice, coffee and more. Need I say more.
Oh and the tip secret info about this place is they offer beer on tap for super cheap for dinner.

A smokin’ weekend deal for my son’s traveling soccer team — $ 139 for a «Penthouse,» a one-​bedroom suite with an upstairs loft, two bathrooms and three TVs. Residence Inns are pretty consistent with their decent appointments and full kitchens, and this one represents well.
A couple of observations. With all that space in the rooms, why not work in some king beds? And, while the guy across the way could be a long-​term resident, why is he allowed to hang his Coors beer sign in the window?

Really really nice hotel. Great split level rooms, nice common area. The weekly dinners are great as well. The price is the only down side.

This Residence Inn has the best international brekkie! They also had a rice cooker, rice spice, kim chee, seaweed on top of scrambled eggs, sausage and even pre-​made brekkie sammiches on top of pastries, cereal and juices! They had a full fare!
I knocked one star off for the cockroach I saw in my bathroom.
But they are prolly there for the stellar breakfast!

The staff and location are top notch. The only downer is the price. It can be very pricey to stay one night let alone a whole weekend. But the experience and location is great. I have house guests stay here. I even stayed here when I came back to visit friends and family. The rooms are clean and are refreshed daily.
Lastly, I like the loft style upstairs and vaulted ceilings from below. The kitchenettes are easy to use and the fridge is spacious. Stock up on groceries and you can save some of your money. There are tons of eateries across Lawrence Expressway so plan your meals accordingly.

Summary based on 1 business stay:
–Cost ok for area. Higher than Hotwire, but there are a bunch of sketchy Hotwire possibilities that are basically converted old style motels.
–Quality is ok, aircon/​heat is old style analog thermostat and hard to regulate in rooms with lofts. Appreciable noise from adjacent room. Shower not temperature pressure compensated. Breakfast ok with fresh fruit, contrary to one reviewer, and healthy food choices available. CRT TVs.
–Service: standard
–Parking free, but cramped
–Amenities: free wifi. Pain to get with a smart phone since there’s an additional acceptance of terms required.
–Convenient to major arterials and inexpensive, good restaurants (if you like Indian food)
