Eugene

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room had an unpleasant odor of cigarette smoke, a blood stain on the rug in the bathroom and sink area, and hair from a previous guest on the shower walls. I had anticipated a similar experience to the ES Suites in Parsippany, NJ, as that location has consistently received high ratings.

There were a lot of interuptions in my stay. Maintenance came into my room 3 times. Also, you can hear EVERYTHING from people above you. It was a pretty "noisy" stay.
Oven handle was broken (they fixed it)
Toilet seat was also broken, I tried to snap it back in but that didnt work. (Maintenance fixed it)

Great place to stay while visiting friends and family in the area. I liked that it was an apartment with separate rooms instead of the standard hotel room. We had a large dog and he didn’t bark at all because we didn’t hear any noises. Decent options for breakfast. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful.

We enjoyed everything it was like staying at home but a great getaway. I only have 2 things I really disliked 1- Having to take dirty towels across the yard and make an exchange in the office and 2-Bag up my trash and sitting it outside the door. But the room was really great cozy and comfortable and having a full kitchen was absolutely the best

Beds, bathroom were clean & comfortable. Overall setup is nice. Front desk & breakfast staff were great. However lots of dust bunnies on walls, doors, ledges everywhere where standard cleaning is not done! Doesn't make the stay feel great. Carpet has noticeable stains and needs replacement or serious deep cleaning. Hotel needs a major renovation/overall to bring it up to being great again.
