Extended Stay America – Seattle – Everett – North

Room has a horrible smell to it. Their breakfast is a joke. A granola bar or a muffin. Better food next door at Shell gas station.

Needs renovation: Stains in carpet, furniture falling apart, everything is worn out. My room was as clean as it could be considering the condition of the hotel.
Check in staff were not attentive. Almost every-​time I passed the check in desk, the staff were not present, you almost have to call them out of the back offices to ask anything.
The location of this hotel is decent and accessible.
Stay here for a bargain but expect nothing more than that.

Well, where do I start off? This place has to be the worst hotel ever. They clean your room once a week, comes with no ice machine, and you have to go to the front desk for any accessories that would typically come in a normal hotel. My room smelt like smokers breath, so much that my wife and I had to purchase our own air freshners. When we asked for additional medium sized towels the rep at the front desk said he had no more. All I could do is shake my head and laugh. The good thing about this place is that it’s conveniently next to a shell gas station so you don’t have to travel far to get things a hotel should already have. All in all I won’t be returning here for a stay and recommend all viewers to do the same.

i started out late last night wanting to give this hotel negative 7 stars. there was a mix-​up upon my arrival with the staff at the front desk that hurt and offended me. however, when the manager became aware of my situation, she did everything within her power to remedy it.
thank you for restoring my faith in customer service a bit. keep up the good work.

Dump!!! Don’t waste your money. If you want the flash back of your first apartment this is the place.

Hands down the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept on. I actually thought about getting in the floor. You have to ask for everything for the room. The Hairdryer, dishes, cooking pans and utensils all have to be requested. It is very inconvenient upon a late arrival. The floor/​ceiling insulation is insufficient as I woke to my upstairs neighbors «bouncing» on their bed. It was so loud I thought my child was jumping on my bed.

This place has a random policy with the dishes for the kitchen. Although they advertise each room having a fully stocked kitchen, the rooms are actually bare. You have to visit the front desk and request dishes, silverware, a coffee pot, or a toaster. Every other Extended Stay hotel I have visited just has these items in the room. I guess it cuts down on theft, but it felt odd having to give my name and room number just to borrow a spoon.

My wife, son and I stayed here for 2-​weeks during our move from Hawaii. Overall the hotel was nice but nothing worth writing home about. Bed was hard as a rock and squeaked and made a noise after every toss or turn my wife and I made. We were close to the elevator and could here everyone who got off on our floor.
The kitchen is pretty nice but you have to ask for the dishes, pots etc when you check in. The daily breakfast was a joke. Coffee, breakfast bars and pitiful fruit. We ended up going to Walmart and buying cereal, eggs and fruit in order to make up for it.
The hotel staff was semi-​friendly but only if they were there. 75% of the time the staff was gone from the desk or out smoking. The only real good thing about this hotel was the fact that it had a kitchen and we did not have to eat out or get take out every night.

I stayed at the Extended Stay for over 2 weeks. I think I had peace and quiet 3 nights total. The clientele was not very iffy at best. The 2 of the 5 washers were broken. The free breakfast was not worth going down to the lobby for. They say they had remodeled but I had stay hear 3 times before and the hotel seemed a little more worse for wear. The blankets on the bed had dog hair and food splatters, I specifically had to ask the maid to change my blanket. I didn’t want to think about the bedspread. Walls and ceiling are very thin, I thought they were renting rooms by the hour. I only gave it 2 stars because of the location and the kitchenette. I will never stay here again even though I have family in the area. It would be better to stay a little few miles farther and spend more $ than be subjected to feeling unsafe, uncomfortable, non-​caring employees.

I stayed at this hotel and overall enjoyed my experience:
Pros:
— Rooms are newly renovated and just as nice if not nicer than one of the more upscale hotels.
— The hotel feels more like an apartment, than a hotel.
— Very high quality for the price
— Good sized rooms.
— Good neighbors — people are quiet and keep to themselves
— Water filters — There are top of the line Pur water filters in the kitchen sink
— Full size refrigerators, microwave, coffee machine, stove top, and toaster provided in the kitchen
— Weekly room cleaning. The cleaning staff doesn’t bother you. You can exchange dirty towels any time you want at the front desk
— Curtains are high quality — You can close the curtains during the day and it seems dark outside.
— Internet — The free service is not bad. If you need high speed internet for work, and you’ll be staying for a while you may want to pay the $ 30 monthly fee.
— Front Desk Service — Generally nice.
— Free light options offered for breakfast — They offer free coffee, sputmeyer-​esque muffins, and fruit in the morning.
— Plenty of electrical outlets, but you may want to bring extension cord.
— Coffee shop next door — There is a coffee shack that sells delicious coffee within walking distance. Give the Reeces Mocha a try.
— Gym — There is not a gym on the premises, but the hotel will give you a free one day pass to Fitness Evolution, which is a gym that is a few blocks from the hotel. The gym is big, with state of the art equipment, and costs $ 10.00 a month. No contracts, no gimmicks.
— There is a mall, grocery store, and restaurants within a 5 minute drive.
Cons:
— The walls are a little thin. Sometimes you can hear love making or loud tvs. Its not loud enough to be a bother though.
— Housekeeping — They clean the rooms well enough, but don’t pay attention to detail. The same food that was splattered on the wall when we arrived, was still there 3 weeks earlier.
— Parking lot is not monitored — You can see people pulling into the parking lot to have sex. Ive seen used condoms on the ground.
— Parking lot is targeted by thieves — my car was stolen, but was found down the street. Apparently there is a neighborhood down the street known for car thieving. There are signs all over the parking lot that warn you that the hotel is not liable for car break-​ins. Per the police, not all cars all targeted, just certain models.
— Laundry Room — Normal size washing machines and dryers cost 2 dollars a piece. If you’re going to stay for a while, consider finding a Laundromat. Bubbles, which is a laundromat 5 miles away, has early bird specials.

Checked in and looked surprisingly nice! Gal and front desk very friendly and tells me ongoing renovations past two months coming completion within next week.
Saw the renovated room (queen studio) and very nice especially for price. Housekeeping policy very unusual with one free cleaning with stay min 1 week otherwise costs extra.
Amenities seemed fairly new and good working condition. Must ask for hair dryer. No in room safe. Bad timing as no flat screen tv for 3 days during renovation, told initially. But, requested if could install tv in any earlier and when I’m back after full day and magic-​new smaller flat screen! Linens soft and clean but towels kinda cheap and rough. Free wifi with strong reception first night but now bit weaker second night some reason. Too much noise room above me not sure if guest or still renovating past midnight. Another room on 2^nd FL had no noise above.

don’t stay here. you have been warned
i needed a place to crash for last couple weeks as my temp assignment ran down, this place was offered on the company’s internal travel site as well within the per diem
it looks fine on the outside, but it’s freaking loud, it’s like sleeping above some buzzing nuclear reactor and the, uhh, clientele that stay here are not exactly high class.
the room though oddly clean, smelled badly of smoke and the toilet and sink drain did not work half the time
lots of random people loitering around outside and people screaming and yelling at night.
eff this place
