The communication between the 2 locations in Alameda CA is very very poor. As a result the Airport location could not find my reservation that had been sent over by the Mariner square location. I did not stay or occupy the room as it was in terrible shape. The next day they charged my card $680 for the 6 nights & a no show fee. I am currently waiting for a refund that they say is coming but has not materialized. The staff did not seem to care and responded with surprise that I was upset. I will never recommend Extended Stay to anyone. Quite the opposite, I will tell friends, family, and strangers to stay away. In addition, the one night I did stay @ the Mariner Square location the person above me was dragging furniture across the room till after midnight. This was by far the worst hotel and customer service experience of my life. And I’m a senior citizen so that’s say something. Save yourself hassle, grief, loss of money and sleep and book an Airbnb!!

Disappointed
there were no plastic cups for even simple drinking. There was no shampoo. The room was bare, except for the bed and a desk. I would expect for an extended stay that at least there’s some sort of a chair to lounge in or something.

Rude and Dirty
The staff was incredibly rude behind the front desk and the hotel and room was filthy. The man at the front was unnecessarily rude and offensive when I checked in. Then when I requested dishes to use the man at the front desk (the only person working at the time) gave me a very hard time. He finally reluctantly gives me a few cups and a pot with black flaking off (not the set of dishware usually provided at extended stay hotels) and they are dirty. I offer to wash them myself if he provided soap and a sponge to use and his response was to roll his eyes at me then reluctantly gave me one little soap packet to wash all the dishes with and I had to ask repeatedly before he’d give a sponge to me. I then asked if there was an ice machine and he told me “if you want ice you can get it yourself from the store” in a rude tone and vaguely gestured outside. Keep in mind this was late at night and I had just checked in after a long drive. When I tried checking out early in the morning there were no staff to be found anywhere on site and no drop box for keys. I called to try to file a complaint right after my stay and because “the hotel would not confirm my story” (which felt a lot like victim blaming) I was refused when I requested a complaint be filed. Normally extended stay is a decent hotel and it takes a lot for me to leave a bad review but I will never stay at this location again it was the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had.

The only suggestion I have is to monitor the breakfast area on a regular basis. They are constantly short on coffee and basic compliments and seem surprised when it is brought to their attention. This has happened during my past 3 stays. Other than the above minor inconvenience, there were no issues and I will continue to stay at this location.

Just called & spk./w the GM. My husband was bitten over 65 times by bedbugs. She said that they would do an incident report and have the room examined for bugs, and get back to us in a minimum of 5 days. But implied that we should have called sooner. My husband will not complain, he just won't go back. He said the room had not been cleaned in a while, ring around the tub and looked like dried ice cream on the nightstand.
