"On the expressway to your heart That expressway, not the…read morebest way At five o'clock It's much too crowded" (The Soul Survivors) Located right off the Long Island Expressway, and a few zig zags through industrial and retail parking lots, you'll find the Residence Inn Marriott. Check-in went smoothly and we had a very nice suite-like room with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, sink area, and bathroom. The bed was comfy, the HVAC controls worked fine, and the TV and WIFI were excellent. The shower temperature and pressure were perfect. However, there were some Annoying, Disappointing, and Absurd observations that impacted this three-star rating. What was Annoying? The bathroom fan and shower were guilty of annoyance in the first degree. When you turned on the light switch, the ceiling fan would slowly fire up and soon hit such a loud volume that I thought someone in the room next door was taking a shower. And then when we were taking our showers, there was a bizarre beeping noise that came from deep within the bowels of the plumbing system. Seriously, I thought it was an alarm or a phone beeping. What was Disappointing? Simply put, breakfast was disappointing. They had had the usual breakfast offerings -cereal, muffins, yogurt, fruit, and a waffle maker. But there were only two hot trays -scrambled eggs and sausage patties. The lack of hot choices when compared to comparable hotel breakfasts was disappointing. Oh, and the tray of bananas was empty for quite a while, and we gave up waiting for it to be replenished. What was Absurd? This hotel is in an open suburban space next to a shopping center and a movie theater. I looked out the window of my room and must have seen 75 available parking spots in the hotel lot. So, all that makes it particularly galling and absurd that the Marriott charges a $12/night parking fee. What's also annoying is that the fee is kind of hidden, and the cost was never directly vocalized when we checked in- just a "we'll take a credit card imprint for incidentals".

So this hotel is in a nice central area, with truly welcoming and nice staff. I was here for work…read moreand a 4 night stay. They are dog friendly which is a plus for those traveling with their furries. My room was very comfortable, clean and sleep quality was good. I never did the breakfast, but big respect for the great morning coffee! I did find that they do not keep the common areas very tidy. Might be a staffing issue, but there was trash in several areas including the stairwells and my last day I could clearly tell nobody had vacuumed the stairwell the entire time I was there. I did have housekeeping the third day of my stay/after my second night but it was not thorough- they just made the bed, left fresh towels, emptied the trash and ran my coffee cups through the dishwasher. Totally fine but No vacuuming ( there was stuff on the floor from my shoes the day before), did not leave any coffee in room and had clearly not wiped the bathroom vanity area down. I am not very messy so it was a non issue. Some of the people that stay here may be a little strange (maybe that is everywhere) as on my third morning, I opened my door and there was a balled up dirty sheet that someone had clearly intentionally left right there! Very bizarre. Between the good and strange I would stay here again, I really liked the staff and my room was very comfortable!

What a sweet spot in town…read more We met friends for Sunday brunch. We hadn't been before so didn't know what to expect. There was some street parking but there was a garage in the back so we parked there. We didn't realize until after we parked that you cannot access the hotel from the garage so we walked down the hill to the front. Not a big deal but unexpected. I had an omelette with added andouille sausage which had a little kick. The food was good, we had a nice corner table so it was intimate. The restaurant is spacious. Nice spot for brunch and a walk through town after.

We were also easily able to hop over to the other parts of the island via the water taxi. However, the highlight of the hotel is the manager/owner Lorraine.

The room was clean and anything not provided in the room was available at the hotel. The complimentary drinks/beach chairs/beach towels made our stay that much easier. Can't recommend this place enough!

Another plus that this hotel is only less than 2 mins driving to grocery shopping and take out, dining restaurants.

Other than that, worth to stay !

We had a king bed studio room and the room was the perfect size for our extended stay. We were traveling with our baby and we were able to fit a pack and play, all of our luggage, the stroller, and had plenty of room to comfortably move around. The kitchen had a full size fridge/freezer, sink, microwave, stovetop, and basic cooking and eating necessities. The room and common areas of the hotel were clean and well-maintained. All of the staff we interacted with were extremely friendly, professional, and welcoming. The hotel had a decent array of free breakfast each morning. They also had an indoor pool, basketball hoop, and plenty of parking. The hotel is also right around the corner from the Long Island Ducks field. They ended up playing while we were visiting, so we made an impromptu trip to watch a game and had a quick and easy walk to the stadium. Our stay at the Residence Inn Long Island Islip/Courthouse Complex was more than we expected. We would definitely return in the future if the price was right.

We would definitely recommend this location to anyone. In addition, we love Courtyard by Marriott - really never have a bad experience.

They had few fire tables made it nice when it was cool that first night we got in. The bar has a few food options and has coffee and breakfast in mornings. Oh and the shower in our room was huge and had plenty of shampoo conditioner and shower gel.

The hotel itself is tucked away from the highway noise and has a Texas roadhouse and a crab restaurant/bar on the premises just adjacent to the hotel. Everybody wants to make you feel at home and comfortable at this property! Sounds incredibly simple but having real cream for my coffee and a cake pod/Keurig machine in my room was phenomenal. I also love the fact that I could get a beer at the bar starting at 4 o'clock if I wanted! Breakfast is not included, but it's delicious and very reasonably priced. I'm going to give this hotel and it's staff five stars!

Many of these locations are used for many purposes, so to find one where you feel hospitable and at ease is rare. The rooms are fairly small but have comfortable beds. I would still recommend bringing your own blankets, especially during COVID. However, the rooms have great AC/heaters, as well as a wooden table with two chairs next to the bed. The rooms don't smell, many times at these locations even the non smoking rooms smell, but these don't. It's not too noisy other than the nearby airport but it's bearable. The price in my opinion could be cheaper but it is not bad. I would recommend this spot if you need somewhere to go and can't figure out where!

If you don't want to ruin your trip and deal with a nightmare afterward, I strongly recommend staying somewhere else. I would never stay here again.
