Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
My car gave trouble during a drive from Florida to Maine and was left today for repairs in Rockville, MD In error, I left my wallet in the car when given a loaner for overnight use. Using PayPal, I ordered a motel room, only to be refused entry tonight because I could not present photo ID. This has led to great hardship. I must now fight with Expedia for a refund.

Dear Charles, We understand the difficulties you encountered during your trip. Evidently, this situation has resulted in considerable inconvenience, and we empathize with the hardship it has caused. Also, please know if you made reservations through a third-party prepaid booking site, financial inquiries must be made through them.

The overall experience was good but few issues with service especially in regard to customer service was not good. I had to request service for house keeping for my room several times and sometime days before the service was done. Management need to train or retrain the staff on good practices in customer service. Mr Kush was not attentive to requests i made drugged his feet in most of whatever needed to be done. Ms Brianna was excellent , made feel good and enjoy our stay at the hotel. Was very attentive to our needs whenever called upon. Thank you Brianna!

The staff was excellent. The room was functional and served its purpose as I was between cities and needed a studio apartment with Internet, a refrigerator, microwave, and sink. Perfect. If I am in need again, I will choose Extended Stay America.

Plug your nose and keep on movin'
Let me start by saying that all the staff that I encountered were wonderful and friendly. After that however, things are not so nice. It should be noted that this location is being used as subsidized housing. If we had known this, we would have never stayed here. The hallways and elevator (once it was working) wreaked of pot, there was garbage in the stairwells and in the elevator, the hallway of the third floor (which was the only room available with no working elevator at time of check in), stunk so bad you wanted to hold your breath. The room had a faint smell of body odor to it, and there was some kind of stain on one of the chairs that we didn't want to think too hard about. You had to ask for a coffee maker and dishes at check in, otherwise no go. There was just really no feeling of safety or real cleanliness, and we seriously considered finding another place to stay for our second night, but with a pet that can be hard to do.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to accommodate my request for a room near an exit to facilitate our bringing our dog in and out. The facility is older. Cleaning especially of stairwells is poor. There were cigarette butts that were never swept. Behind the building people have thrown trash down an embankment and it is all about the grass areas. The room itself was clean, good size. There were absolutely no amenities that you’d expect for and extended stay suite like facility. No coffee maker, cups, mugs, utensils, coffee. I returned to the desk and was shown a table card that the clerk pulled from behind her desk that was entitled “complimentary items”. Apparently you must request them. I got a coffee maker, coffee, mugs and coffee. They have no milk or cream. Only non-dairy sweetened creamer. Breakfast is horrible. Self-retrieved from a tiny room near the check-in desk. Cold package muffins. We passed on that. The bed was ok. Not the most comfortable. People were smoking standing on the landing to the entrance doors. I reported it to the clerk as there is a designated smoking area. Didn’t seem to yield any change and the landing was littered with cigarette butts and the entrance to the stairwell constantly smelled of cigarette smoke. If I’m ever in the area and can’t find anyplace else I guess I would stay here. Note there is another building at 201 just in front of 205 (where we stayed). Same company etc. Much newer and nicer.
