Critical reception
Suite #420 was met with mixed or average reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 57, based on seven reviews.

AllMusic's David Jeffries wrote: "Devin's redundancy is the reason fans keep coming back. They won't be disappointed by Suite #420, which features the usual set of chilled-out weed anthems, sex jokes, and old-school R&B beats, along with those great oddball numbers the Dude uses to break each album up". In his final edition of Consumer Guide column for MSN Music, veteran critic Robert Christgau stated: "the weed rhymes he takes himself, the sex rhymes he farms out, which in the Dirty South is a sign of truly delicate sensibility", honourably mentioning tracks "All You Need", "Ultimate High" and "Twitta".

Jason Richards of Now found "Devin's single-mindedness makes for a highly unified style, and the album's relaxed, hazy production is the aural equivalent of comfort food. But the repetition is kinda tedious for an hour of straight listening". Tom Breihan of Pitchfork wrote: "it's good to hear him still recording, even if he's deeply entrenched himself in his own wheelhouse and barely has a single surprising moment in the album's whole hour. But if the album never existed, nobody's life would be much poorer for it-- possibly even Devin's". The A.V. Club head writer Nathan Rabin resumed: "nobody expects maturity from Devin, even though he jarringly mentions that he has a 17-year-old son, but he usually makes eternal adolescence sound a lot more fun than this".
