On a road trip through Arkansas we stopped at this hotel. From the super friendly check in staff to the modern decor in the lobby and beautifully decorated room we were super impressed! The morning breakfast had numerous food sensitivity options with alternative milks and gluten free bread options upon request! Hard to beat this stay for the money. Thank you for a great experience! read more

Very nice property and great location. This hotel is very clean and seems like it's fairly new. As with all Residence Inns, you have the convenience of having a small kitchen and a large living area. Bed is comfy and bathroom is very spacious. Furniture and appliances are very modern. Staff is very friendly and check in process was a breeze. They have free hot breakfast in the mornings and usually some kind of mixer in the evenings which is a great touch after a long day at work. Hotel is within walking distance of several restaurants and stores. read more

Do not stay at this hotel! This hotel is FILTHY and there are NO signs of Covid procedures being followed. We found pubic hair on the walls and on the floor. We also found tortilla chips in the bed! We asked for another room, but it was more dirty than the initial one. The Customer Service was terrible as well. The front desk clerk acted like he didn't want to be working here and he was playing on his phone when he he'd customers waiting. I caught him as I walked around the side of the counter and saw what he was doing. I have been a loyal Rewards Member for years, but will be giving up on Marriott and canceling all my ( and my company) future stays. read more

Let me say that I am staying here for work requirements or I would have left the first night. The first night I asked for quarters for the laundry ($2 wash and $2 dry) and the poor lady at the front said they didn't leave her any change. Because of COVID complimentary breakfast consists of an apple, granola bar, and bottle of water. I informed the front desk of the phones not working but after day 5 they still call my room and get upset when I don't answer. In the room there are several things missing like glasses, plates, bottle opener (broken) and the shower did not drain correctly and was spotty with mold. The hide away bed did not have sheets and when I asked for a comforter and pillow Lee the night staff stated that she had no pillows. I asked her to please bring the comforter and she said no she was busy and would leave it at the front. I explained that I was in for the night and after she helped a guest to please bring me the comforter and she hung up on me. Lee the night staff brought me the comforter to my room but then stated that I could not place trash in the hallway for pick up (something I was told by other staff to do and a regular custom in other hotels.) I asked Lee about the other trash in the hall and she turned an walked away. Needless to say I pulled the trash into my room as I was told. Been on the road for months and it's Father's Day weekend. This hotel and the staff Lee has made me even more home sick read more

Overpriced, especially if you've got pets ($100 surcharge per night) but the room is excellent and they have a kitchen as well. I only recommend coming here if you're stressed after a day of driving and want to splurge since there's not that much to see in Texarkana. read more

I came to Texarkana for a work and family trip. I needed to quarantine after my flight and decided on this hotel. It had good ratings, reasonable prices, a full kitchen/work area, and close to Target. Upon checking in that evening, the gentleman working the front desk was sitting in the lounge area. He was talking on the phone and not wearing a mask. He came over to the front desk, which does have a transparent barrier between you and the clerk. However, him not wearing a mask and walking around the lobby upset me very much. He needed a card for incidentals, which is standard practice. We handed him over three different cards, which he insisted did not work. We finally got one to go through after 15 minutes. It turns out he charged a full $280 on one card and then the $60 on another. This upset me very much because I had already pre-paid for the room through hotels.com. I went downstairs the next day to try and get the charge reversed. Again, some front desk employees were not wearing masks, and it took over 30 minutes and multiple employees to figure out how to issue a refund. We are still waiting for the pending charge to drop. I advised the desk clerk that I was upset about employees not wearing masks. I told him about my check-in experience and explained this was the whole reason for being here to quarantine. All I received was an apology. No reassurance; this would be addressed to the employees. The hotel was not sanitary. I had to re-wash all the dishes and utensils in the dishwasher; I bought cleaner to wipe down the outside of the fridge, microwave, countertops, and all other surface areas. The pans provided in the room were overused and made everything I cook taste horrible. I used the microwave for the rest of my stay. This upset me because I am on a special diet and had purchased groceries for cooking on the stove. This hotel is by Target and other stores, which is a plus. Another reason why I chose the hotel. Please see below the full list and photos of the issues I had with the hotel. I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone. I will be reporting to the OSHA and Marriott corporate regarding COVID issues. Hotel- Not clean Some of the staff did not wear masks Complimentary breakfast was of low quality Was overcharged on a credit card Workout room smelled They had an employee pizza party downstairs-(Wednesday, November 11th) Not socially distanced, in the main lobby area, no masks, and all pizzas gathered together.

Just a quick one night stay. Decided to splurge as the Residence Inn was 4 dollars more than the cheapest Marriott property in the area. Unlike my last visit, the staff was great here on check in and check out. The room (which strangely was the same room I had 3 years ago?) was good, but not great. In this pandemic time, the cleaning of the shower has to be perfect after EACH guest...it wasn't. Reserved a King size bed, did not get that in the room. There was also a high pitched sound coming out of the fridge, that was intermittent. Didn't keep me awake, but did not help matters for the girlfriend. I know we are all dealing with this current situation, so I expect they will get to the 5 star level on our next visit. Parking can get limited when they are full. Walking distance to several restaurants read more

This was a very below standard Residence Inn. The room we stayed in was in an extreme state of disrepair (tiles coming up in the bathroom, the faucet in shower was falling off). Comp breakfast was far below typical standards. Service was extremely indifferent. Pool was nice (indoor). I would look elsewhere for lodging in area. read more

Aug 27-28 third floor: Toilet kept filling..all night. I would've given it zero stars if possible, but gave it two because the staff and construction workers were some of the nicest people I had come across at a hotel. However, if I had know they were doing construction, I would not have stayed there. No towel in bathroom- have to leave the bathroom to find the towels. But it didn't really matter because ... The shower didn't work. The bathtub faucet worked, but the valve to make it into a shower didn't work. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until I was ready to get cleaned up and leave to check out. Bathtub was hardly large enough to take a bath in. Remodeling fumes! They were installing carpet as I was trying to check into my room! The carpet glue had a horrible fume, I couldn't believe it! Luke warm sausage at breakfast- not a deal breaker but I thought that good food was a given with Marriott breakfast. Dirty coffee cup in cupboard. Ugh! I've been a fan of Marriott Residence Inn for years, but after this experience, will start checking out other options. When I told the front desk that my shower didn't work, they said they would add some points to my account, which I haven't seen yet, and that was the whole consolation for not being able to take a shower. Good riddence, will start trying Hilton Garden Inn to see if that's a better experience. read more

Let's see I didn't get the complimentary upgrade. My status was not recognized. The icing on the cake we woke up to water coming through our ceiling in the kitchen area. When we called the front desk to tell them they said if there was a room available they would see about moving us in an hour or two. It took over an hour for them to get us moved only after I had to get very testy with the lady at the front desk. When she did get us moved she acted like said she was going to upgrade us in our room with no extra charge. All I can think is oh the upgrade that I'm supposed to get automatically. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone. The rooms was dirty the front desk staff could care less if you ever had repeat customers read more

This was a wonderful hotel to stay at! The hotel is recently built and is very clean with modern amenities. The hotel is in a great location off the interstate 30 and close to many restaurants and shops within walking distance like Target (with a CVS inside). The hotel even has coupons for the nearby restaurants which is fantastic! We had a great meal at Longhorn Steakhouse that was literally across the parking lot (a 1 minute walk) and got 10% off AND a free appetizer thanks to the hotel. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite and it was perfect: Nice and clean, spacious and full off all the amenities perfect for a long stay. The best thing about this hotel is the staff! Stephanie at the front desk went above and beyond numerous times! Stephanie gave us our ideal room, helped me out when I thought we left something behind in the room and was so friendly and nice. She really made me feel valued as a Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite - even more so than other Marriotts! When she found out we were hunting for diamonds in Arkansas she even arranged for extra towels for us when we got back. Beth was also very nice and she was the one that offered the coupons to the local restaurants. This hotel really feels like a home away from home and we will definitely stay here again the next time we are in the area! read more

This is our normal spot to stay overnight between Memphis and Dallas- checked in last night- very nice gentleman at front desk. First room we were given was occupied/ a mess- we returned to the desk and he was so apologetic and assigned us another room - this one was perfect- clean, well furnished and quiet. This morning was pleasant, but my husband was looking forward to a waffle more than anything (they are doing breakfast)- only be told "they are too much trouble"- hmmmmm- the machine spits them out- guess she was tired - I then went to get something and asked for a bagel or toast or English Muffin and she said/ all we have is sausage, biscuit gravy or eggs- I know we've been dealing with COVID, but it's been a year- this hotel has a lot of guests- they could do better read more

I've stayed here a lot and recommended this property to others. I will no longer do that. I'm also a gold elite and stay almost exclusive with Marriott. Recently in the last stay we had a pet which was a first time for us. We didn't know about check-in as it said pet friendly on the app and came in late and missed the sign. They charged over $100 and refused to waive it. This is how you treat loyal members? For that $100 you've lost $Thousands because I'll never stay with you again and I'll tell everyone I know to stay away. Sad that their management at this location isn't better trained and more aware of how to keep loyal customers happy. read more

Amendment to an earlier post based on the hotel's response to an unfortunate experience with the night desk clerk. The general manager was very empathetic, brought me breakfast (room service not available here) and sincerely apologized for my night. Residence Inn allowed me late check out to make up for the lack of sleep. I would stay here again, calling in advance to ensure I do not get a room next to the elevator. "This place is horrible. I booked/paid in advance, mobile check-in with a phone call the day prior and the only room available for me is next to the elevator. As a rewards member I expected better. I'm here at 12am waiting for the front desk clerk to clean a room I requested yesterday. They're dropping the room rate and letting me check out late but overall this experience has been horrendous." read more

What a great place to stay. I used the Mariott app to check in which made getting to my room even faster. The mini kitchen was nice. Couldn't say about the comfort of the bed because I had to sleep on the couch. Staff was very friendly and accommodating, even helped us out when out child had an accident. Gave us the location of an ER where we could quickly get in and out. The mixer in the evening with wine, beer and ice cream was great as well. Breakfast was fast and had plenty of options. read more

This was a top of the line (at least in Texarkana) hotel experience. Check in was super nice, friendly, and quick. They have a free hot breakfast which was edible and fresh. I give them bonus points for having coffee in the lobby always available. Also they have free drinks and appetizers certain weeknights. Best part was the room setup: large L shaped sleeper sofa and great desk with tons of plugs. read more

Very clean and updated suites. Hot breakfast and variety. On my tops to stay again if needed.

I am in love with this place. I kind of miss it. No joke. We were up in the area taking care of some not so pleasant business and got a good rate on the suite from Hotels.com. Arriving at the location, it was kind of hard to see the entry but easy to get to it. To say the staff was friendly and helpful would be an understatement. I was very impressed by everyone that I worked with at this hotel. Check-in and out was a breeze. Cleaning services were on the ball and easily took care of us with our odd hours of coming and going. The hotel amenities are excellent. Our room was very well appointed and extremely clean and comfortable. It was tastefully decorated and offered a soothing retreat. The bed was luxurious and comfy. I loved it. The bathroom and dressing area was also well appointed and nice. The shower was very clean as was the rest ot the bathroom. I was very impressed. When we arrived back to the hotel after our busy days of work, it was like a soothing oasis. That is exactly what I want from an hotel. I highly recommend this place. read more

NO CRIBS?! What hotel, most especially a RESIDENCE Inn, has no cribs (or pack-n-plays)!! I've seen this ONCE before at a Marriott in VEGAS, but when looking for reservations, they made it abundantly clear on Marriott.com so we knew not to stay there. This place on the other hand, said NOTHING even when I checked the need for a crib when making the reservation! I actually just doubled-checked the hotel website and it actually list options for cribs and rollaway beds. So, after being told this upon check-in, my husband and I pull out our phones to find a reservation somewhere else. One front desk agent heads to the back and comes back with a pack-n-play a few minutes later. How? Well, apparently someone in Housekeeping told her to use the one a regular guest who stays there every two weeks PURCHASED FOR THEMSELF! (Can you imagine them letting any guest, let alone a regular, likely elite rewards member, buy their own crib because the HOTEL doesn't have one?!?!). I'll also add here that they almost share a parking lot with Target. We are very thankful to the guest who's crib was likely unknowingly borrowed so we didn't have to load the kids and the car up and head somewhere else. I can't stop wondering though, what happens when that person's personal crib gets damaged? That other guest must be a saint; certainly WAY more loyal than I'd ever be and we are Platinum Elites with Marriott. Buying your own crib FOR A HOTEL, and then the hotel using it for other guests because they don't have their own is utter bullshit! (Pardon the cursing, I just CANNOT wrap my head around this.). Now, to the room... It truly looked great and was even more spacious and modern, and with a nicer bathroom than most similar room types at other residence inns. That said, there were a few more disappointments to come... 1. While my son played with his cars, I had to get one from under our bed and had to avoid a previous guest's dirty sock right under the side of the bed (not tucked away and hard to see even) 2. Once showering, I realized that both bottles we had were conditioner and no shampoo (super awesome when you are already in the shower with wet hair) 3. I unwrapped the "sheet" the front desk had given us when I asked for one to fold up around the pack n play mattress, and it ended up being a folded stack of about 8-10 pillowcases, not a sheet. Okay... Found the bag with the extra blanket etc in the closet and took the "flat sheet" out of that.... Nope, another stack of pillowcases. This just makes me assume housekeeping is pretty poorly organized and/or not trained well or communicated with if two different employees grabbed a stack of pillowcases when they thought they were grabbing a flat sheet. In conversation with the front desk, my husband was told that the manager has only been there a few weeks and they agreed we should say something about not having cribs as they think it's ridiculous too. They are hopeful this new manager can make improvements. I'm less optimistic as I'm not sure how a new manager would come back a second day let alone week or month without crossing that parking lot and getting a few pack-n-plays at Target (and reimbursing and apologizing to that saintly loyal guest for having to buy their own). Maybe even worse problems have taken priority?! Yikes! I will credit the front desk staff, both night and morning shifts were all very helpful and pleasant. Yep, even with some nice elements, I can't give more than 1 star because nothing makes up for a hotel not having beds for guests of all ages and abilities. Am I exaggerating saying they don't have beds? I don't think so because, frankly, if we had to choose, we'd rather them not have a bed for US and sleep on the floor, as its simply not a safe option for any active toddler (as I'd say any parent would agree.) As I said earlier, we were looking for other hotels as soon as we found out, as a hotel room is worthless to us otherwise. If no other options existed, we'd have driven on and let the kids sleep in the car. No Family should ever stay here! The rest of you can decide how much good housekeeping is a priority to you or not. In the meantime, while the hotel SHOULD fix this, they absolutely MUST, at very least, update the website so people can know not to make reservations at this "home-away-from-home" hotel As a disclaimer, I'm really generally not as bitter of a person as this review sounds. Most of my other reviews are positive and I try to be fair and list the positives even on this one. I just found this overall inexcusable. read more

I was going to give them a 2, but the lady that checked us out this morning was super nice and apologized. First we checked in, once we were settled in the kids wanted to go swimming. You couldn't see the bottom of the pool it was very murky and a green color. So, we didn't want our kids to get in. We went back up to the room to shower and go to bed as we had plans this morning. When we got in the shower, it was obvious that it hadn't been cleaned, and there was used soap and shampoo left in there. We were disappointed to say the least. The shower was moldy and dirty. In all fairness the rest of the room appeared clean. I made out the fold out couch for my daughters, it had what appeared to be dried blood on the mattress and the cover that was in the bag. We left after the first night. read more

Great hotel, and I would definitely stay here again. Front desk staff was courteous and friendly, and even let me check in several hours ahead of time with no problem. Lobby was spacious, well designed, and clean. The rooms were equally spacious and clean. Large bathroom and closet. The location is good, right off the interstate, and within easy walking distance of multiple restaurants and an outdoor shopping center. Complimentary breakfast was excellent. Oatmeal, eggs, waffles, potatoes, bagels, cereal, fruit, several juices and coffees. read more

Didn't make reservations prior to planned trip but was able to walk right in and get a suite for the entirety of our stay. Rooms are nice and modern. Shower liner had several spots of mold. Why is there no bath mat or bath rug tho? Well in a suite that sleeps 4 we only got three hand towels and three bath towels. First two days housekeeping came as requested to clean. On the second day I noticed they didn't throw away the trash in the kitchenette area. Third day we had to send my daughter down to the front desk for tissue and later had to call down for more towels. The housekeeper brought the towels and 5 minutes later another knock at the door. It's the hotel staff and a big burly dude in a black suite. Intimidating or what?! Well....she says that the housekeeper smelled smoke in the room (I'm assuming the lady who brought the towels since she just left the room) and I had to sign a form to pay the $250 smoking fee. Which I did with no issue. I think they assumed that I'd make a big fuss about it. Hence the henchman. My husband smokes cigarettes but not once did he smoke INsIDE the room. Anyone who smokes knows that the smell lingers on you. My husband went outside every time he smoked and came right back in the room. I didn't want to argue with them so I just signed the document and agreed to the fee. 5 minutes later another knock. This time it's a police officer. He says the hotel called to report that now we were smoking marijuana in the room. NO ONE SMOKED MARIJUANA IN THE ROOM. He officer asked a few questions and left without even entering the room. Said the hotel staff and henchman said they smelled marijuana when they came. The officer smelled NONE. Ever since the incident with the smoking fee they have not cleaned our room. It has been two additional days and there has been no housekeeping. We came in and asked the front desk staff for towels since they had not cleaned and restocked them. She told me that she would send someone with towels. 20 minutes later. No towels. My husband went to ask for towels and they told him again...someone will bring them. 20 more minutes... no towels. He had to go down again and didn't leave until he had he towels in his hands. Upon each visit to the front desk after "smoking gate" the staff is obviously gathering to gossip about US. I'm glad our stay is coming to an end. Did I fail to mention we are an African American family. read more

I just stayed at this hotel for work and I have to say it's one of the nicest Marriotts I have ever been to. The location of the hotel is directly next-door to target, Starbucks, and multiple other restaurants and shopping options. The hotel itself is brand new and the rooms are immaculate and very large. I very much enjoyed my stay and experience here and would highly recommend it to anyone else traveling to the area. I have stayed at a very high number of Marriotts for work over the years and this one stands out in my mind. They also offer mixers in the evening with free beer and wine and the staff is very friendly. Thank you very much for the excellent experience!! read more

Great value! Staff was amazing, so friendly and helpful. Love the room with the small kitchen. Nice exercise room.

Brand new hotel that really has its act together. This was a very pleasant stay. The rooms are HUGE and really give a feeling of home-away-from-home. The kitchen is all modern and was stocked with everything I needed. The living room has all the amenities you could ask for. Water pressure was great, and the bed was soft and comfortable. There were a couple things that annoyed me. 1) the tiered wifi log-in process was really wonky for me. I had a lot of trouble getting it to work (hint: do not use Chrome). It was still pretty slow, even after upgrading to the higher tier for streaming, but it worked OK. 2) I was placed in a handicap accessible room, which is fine, but the items in the shower for the special needs really took up a ton of space. That bathroom is massive, why didn't you do walk-in/roll-in showers like everyone else!?! 3) One of the light fixtures in the bedroom largely blocks the only AC/Heat vent in the room. The bedroom was a significantly different temperature than the living/kitchen area, making temperature moderation difficult. 4) There are no built-in charging stations by the bed. The staff was friendly, everything was comfortable, and the market had a lot of options for snacks, a quick meal, or drinks. While not perfect, I will definitely stay here again. read more

What a stupendous place. The property is first rate; comfortable bed, nice full cookware array in the rooms, good workout area, pleasant patio/grill area. Great social hours Monday-Wednesday. Free (not great) beer, cheap box wine, sodas; decent food offerings, especially on Grill Tuesday. Breakfast is solid. But the best part is the staff. The front desk staff are always attentive and helpful; just good folks. Jessica and Gavin in the breakfast and Social Hour kitchen area are beyond great. Always helpful, always go the extra mile. Last night when the grilled sausages (awesome!) were running short, Gavin went out to pick up more, including some chicken sausage to accommodate one of the kosher guests. Honestly, words fall short when attempting the plaudits deserved by the great folks here. They really help elevate the "Residence" in Residence Inn. read more

Very clean and comfortable rooms. Friendly helpful staff. Located within walking distance to several great restaurants, a huge cinema, Target & Petsmart and other stores.

Morning continental breakfast is excellent with scrambled eggs, breakfast meats, fresh fruit, hot and cold cereals, breads and bagels and sweet rolls, and make-your-own Belgian waffles. Highly recommend this place--will definitely stay at this or other Residence Inns again. HINT: book online thru TriVaGo.com for discounts not available if you book directly. read more

My husband just started a new career with a 100% committee to travel around the United States. This was our first trip away from home with our 6 month old daughter. Living in a completely new place away from home and our family and friends was very difficult for me. We couldn't go out much because of the heat being too much for my daughter so we spent a lot of tile at the hotel. My husband worked between 12-15 hours everyday and it could easily have felt very lonely for me taking care of our baby in a new place, but it didn't because of the team here. The team and staff here at the Residence Inn in Marriott Texarkana made us feel welcome from the moment we checked in. Our first morning here was very difficult for me, but as we passed the front desk to go out to the car we were greeted with "you are family now, so let us know if you ever need anything" they have made us feel nothing less than that. They all remembered our names and our daughters name. Even though we were far away from our family back home I can confidently say that we gained a family here. Our other friends that have been in this position longer than us have told us that they have never had a Marriott team as genuine and friendly as this one and I 100% believe it. If you want a place to stay to be comfortable, well taken care of, and a place that feels like home away from home this Marriott is your place. You can tell that the team here is a family in itself and they have made us feel apart of that family everyday that we have been here in Texarkana. Even though my husband was gone most of the time and I cared for our daughter by myself often, I always felt safe, comfortable, and supported by this team. I don't know what I would have done in this transition of us living on the road if it weren't for this incredible team here. This transition for me was significantly better because of the incredible people that work here. If your not sure where to stay, don't even think about it any longer because you absolutely can't go wrong with this home away from home here at Residence Inn Marriott Texarkana. read more
