Residence Inn by Marriott Dothan

Loved the room - Kitchenette with small living room, bedroom and swivel tv.  Very clean and efficient!!

I stayed at this hotel for over a week and it was a comfortable experience. Tiffany was the first person I'd met. She checked me in, and there was something I'd noticed when she slid the key card over to me: she didn't tell me my room number. It was written on the back of the envelope, of course, but she noticed there was a male patron standing behind me. Talk about attention to detail; I loved it and it was a subtle security measure. Every morning, Christal was the manager on duty (I assume) and was always good for a laugh when I passed the front desk. She was like a girlfriend and our brief encounter set a great tone for my day. Nakasia was there one evening, again very pleasant. I'd asked if I could switch rooms because the mattress I was sleeping on hurt my lower back. I thought she would tell me I could do so the following day. No, she offered to switch my room right away, and even made it convenient by having the new room be right across, so that I could move my things over easily. Another lovely encounter. My room was clean and comfortable and I couldn't hear anything from either side of me. The morning breakfast wasn't the best, some of the triangle omelettes were icy, and some of the milks and chocolate milks were sour in the mini fridge. The fruit wasn't very fresh. If there are improvements to be made, I'd say the kitchen would be the place. Thank you, ladies, for making it a wonderful stay while I was away from my family for over a week. Keep up the excellent service!

We needed a hotel room with 2 bedrooms. That’s a difficult layout to find, so this was the biggest pro for us at this hotel. Staff was the friendliest I’ve ever experienced at a hotel. It was also quiet at night and our family slept well. So overall a good stay. Only negatives are that the hotel is a bit dated. Noticeable in some hallway areas, elevators, bathrooms, and kitchens. But not a huge deal. The kitchen in our room was not the cleanest, and there were food stains on the sofa and food in the floor around it. Still, the cons did not outweigh the pros, which were the super friendly staff and the room layout that we needed. I’m assuming housekeeping was probably just short staffed. Would stay here again if traveling through.
