I've done lots of business stays at RI. I've never had a problem with unruly kids. Yes, there are families there, but they don't pose problems. The kid-problems I've encountered - busloads of high-schoolers doing an overnighter, that kind of thing - usually end up lower on the hotel food chain. Fairfield Inn, Hampton Inn, etc. Residence Inn is usually out of their budget range.
