About this place Residence Inn by Marriott Tempe Downtown/University

Residence Inn by Marriott Tempe Downtown/University is an extended-stay chain hotel at 510 S Forest Avenue, a few blocks from Mill Avenue and the Arizona State University campus. It is a gay-friendly mainstream hotel, not a gay venue. As with the rest of the brand, rooms are suites with kitchen facilities, which helps on longer trips. Reviews praise the location, roomy suites and the front desk, and the pool gets used a lot by families. Parking costs extra, which some guests grumble about. It rates 4.5 on Google from about 870 reviews. Phoenix's gay bars are a short drive or light-rail ride away.

Very nice staff and food was good. Wish coffee and water was available 24 hours and parking was cheaper but overall a great experience for downtown Tempe

We loved our stay! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and in a fantastic location in downtown Tempe. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We especially loved how convenient the location was for exploring the area and the pool. Great experience overall, we would definitely stay here again! ❤️
