Staybridge was under construction while we were there, so the pool was closed and there was dust. My review is not based on the construction. Rooms were not very homey and furnishings were on the older side. Our suite had a queen and 2 double beds that were not adequate for 2 people.

Thank you for telling us about your stay. The construction at the hotel is to update the rooms and property. We hope that you'll come and visit once the renovations are completed.

Beds were comfortable, breakfast good in a nice dining area. Rooms were clean but worn. They were doing renovations and we could not access the outside door. Very frustrating loading and unloading. The hotel is on a busy road and heard traffic sounds throughout the night. Not awful, but worse than many. Hotel halls were quiet and I appreciated that.

Relaxing and friendly is what I liked the most…what I disliked was that the first night we didn’t have a TV but we told staff and the next day it got fixed

Front desk staff was very friendly, rooms were well stocked and quite roomy. Looking forward to the completed remodel. The pool area needs an update but has been cared for. The kitchen area was nice to have with our group. Overall the 2 bedroom situation was a great layout and satisfied our needs for our short stay.

Great rooms and friendly staff.
The room has lots of storage, large deep dresser drawers, and the bathroom vanity had multiple drawers and large under sink storage. The beds were comfortable and the thermostat was easy to maintain a desired temperature. Breakfast was great, many items to choose from, including fresh fruit. They shut breakfast down immediately at 9:30am, lights and everything! The pool/hot tub/fitness center is open 24 hours which is very convenient. They were also fast to salt the sidewalks in the snowy weather. The hotel appears new, but the furniture was slightly worn in our room (fabric sofa). All staff we encountered were very nice and we had no issues. And free laundry machines!

When we spoke with expedia, the rate on the new room was HIGHER than the rate you were being charged. I will be more than happy to charge the rate for the new room if you'd like. It was a better deal for you by almost 60 to keep the rate at the original booking price.

We stayed here with our baby. We loved the layout and the mini kitchen. The pool was a bonus. But it has been poorly maintained. The elevator was out of service the whole week we were there and we were located on the 3rd floor. The carpet in the staircase is likely beyond a good wash and needs to be replaced. The carpets in the suites were also filthy. Cleaning up spills from our baby made the white towels dark grey. The whole hotel also has a musty smell. But they had happy hour a few days a week and when the maids came, they were generous with the linens. So as much as it was a perfect set up for us, it just lacks its potential in cleanliness. Its both good and bad. PS no crib or high chairs were available at this hotel.

The staff were friendly, the there were some issues with the hotel and our reservation. The elevated and hot tub were not in service, and we reserved a 1 Bedroom King, but when we arrived there were no King rooms available at all. We received a refund for the difference in cost for the room type, but if we’d known about these limitations in advance we’d likely have stayed someplace else. The desk staff was responsive and checked in frequently to see if there was anything more they could do. They deserve a lot of credit for doing all they could.

They don’t honor Hotels.com reservations
Showed up at 10pm to not have a room. Was yelled and swore at by the front desk. Was told when I said I’d like to speak to a manager by Front desk lady “I don’t need this *ickin* Job. All day long I have to deal with Bill****. Was told that they do not guarantee hotels.com clients rooms if they sell out. She said they forgot to call which could have called, texted, emailed. There was zero communication and I was just sent out in the the late evening hoping I could find a different room. The asst gm the next day said he’d follow right back up and now 2 days later still no call. I wish I could post a video I took of the incident. Overall by far the worst staybridge I’ve ever stayed at and you should avoid this place at all costs it’s extremely poorly ran from management all the way to staff.

One night stay
Our one night stay at Staybridge was perfect. After a full day of travel, having the reception was wonderful. The bed was very comfortable. The in room coffee was tasty. The breakfast was definitely adequate. Only negative, a small thing, but the hotel is otherwise so very nice, the toilet paper wasn’t very good quality. All the staff was very friendly and responsive. I would stay at Staybridge again if the need arose.
