(1,004 reviews) This property definitely surprised us!!! I expected (due to price) just a mediocre establishment. Instead, we found ourselves in Extended Stay Heaven. HUGE rooms with one bedroom and queen bed plus sofa made into a bed and a nice size desk plus huge kitchen with even a dishwasher. In regards to the kitchen area, they come completely unfinished. Bring your own everything to do with food and dining in the room. Otherwise, absolutely perfect and much more than we thought $78 could ever get us. The room was very clean and the bathroom was even huge and spacious. We will stay again when we visit the Covington-Mandeville areas in the near future.
