Filthy Dump. Not your typical Extended Stay *Zero stars is appropriate rating
I have stayed at other Extended Stay America locations more than once and have been very disappointed all around with this location.
The issues:
The entire building has an odd, unpleasant odor; the carpets appear as though they have never been cleaned; there was old food in the refrigerator indicating no cleaning between tenants/guests; the linens were wrinkled and messy leaving us unable to determine if they were even fresh upon checkin; the kitchen floor was filthy; one chair was so visibly soiled we were afraid to use it; cockroaches abound in the kitchen and bathroom; we literally cleaned (with our own supplies) for over 3 hours before unpacking. Housekeeping does not come weekly as agreed, and when they do come, "service" is quite limited-linens not changed and floor not vacuumed or mopped, no dusting is done. Of all employees, there are only 2 who seem to know the meaning of Customer Service, and asking the others (including Manager and Assistant Manager) yields little more than a bad attitude in return.
We attempted to not complain further and only take care of our own room, but were not allowed to borrow the vacuum and there were not sufficient supplies to replace the bed linen, so we just laundered our dirty ones in the laundry room ourselves. Ventilation is somewhat an issue.
Wifi is so slow you can rarely even load email; to stream anything or use video chatting, you must purchase the "Premium Internet" daily, on each separate device.
The elevator safety certificate is posted and shows an expiration date of July 2016 - 18 months ago; and one elevator has 2 stickers from authorities regarding unpaid status for safety inspections and servicing.
No pool or outside area.
No business center or computer/printer for use, making any faxing or other necessary business functions difficult.
The doors, though outfitted with keycard locks, are not locked at night and the desk staff rarely comes to the desk from the office area, allowing anyone to come in without question.
The good points:
The laundry room is good. The geographical location is near shops and grocery stores with trolleys and buses nearby. Abundant parking (for daily fee). Pet friendly. Coffee and convenience breakfast snacks provided in the lobby every morning. The furniture itself (tables, nightstands) are new and in good condition.
