We do not travel very often. So when we do, we like a nice place to stay. The Residence Inn By Marriott here in Merrillville is the best choice we have ever made when it comes to hotels. We loved our room and I loved the outdoor patio that was close so I could sit outside. Every staff member was amazing…knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to. The breakfast was just what is should be, many choices and very tasty. I know I won’t remember everybody’s name. We were there M,T, and W Sept 18th, 19, and 20th. I believe Antwone check us in, very nice. Both of the cooks were very friendly. And so was Reggie! Oh yes, the carpet cleaning company team was also very sweet. The 2nd floor(?)smelled awesome when they were done. All and all I give our stay with you a10 plus!!!!
