2 reviews for Extended Stayamerica
Funny how the Yelp star rating says: "Meh. I've experienced better." for the two star option.
Yes, I have experienced better. Way better. But hey, it was the cheapest I could find at the last minute. Due to personal stuff, I decided I needed to stay-over somewhere other than my house last night. This was the closest and cheapest I could find.
What the heck ever happened to the $39 motel room? Oh, am I still livin' in the 80's?
Well apparently, cuz the cheapest room I could find was here for $70 (weekend rate).
As another reviewer mentioned, the bed was pretty darn FIRM. But actually didn't cause me any discomfort in my messed up shoulder.
I had asked for an extra blanket when I checked in, knowing from previous experience that hotels only clothe the beds in wispy thin materials they jokingly call blankets. The extra blanket was clean, smelled fresh, was blemish free, but was a bit stiff like it had gotten a small hit of starch. Once I wrapped up in it, it softened right up and kept me warm all night. (This was such a spur of the moment thing that I didn't even have any jammies with me).
The rest of the room was nice enough though. It had a cute little kitchenette, easy chair, clean bath (no shampoo provided - huh?? $70 bucks!?!?). They even let me stay an hour longer than the usual checkout time of 11am. That was great for me, cuz I am no morning person. And it was doubly good, cuz I didn't really sleep much all night.
Another plus - at least in my book - the front doors are locked at 11pm, so only guests with card keys can get in. Ups the saftey factor. Though you could think why there is a need to do that...
Anyway I'd rather give it a 3 1/2 stars cuz it'a decent enough place with nice enough staff but the "Meh. I've experienced better" pretty much sums it up.

Somehow managed to get a non-smoking room during the great blackout of 2006. The staff at the desk was friendly. The bed was like recently hardened concrete. The shower in room 219 was cold... not freezing, but not warm. But it was warmer than our powerless house, and relatively clean.
