“Tenement Slum”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012

This is the worst Extended Stay property I have ever been in (and I've been in three).

This Crosslands is the dirtiest, filthiest, worst tenement slum, that a terribly managed rental property can turn out to be.

First, this is a "pet friendly" motel, therefore, your room is going to smell like dog no matter what. Wet dog, dirty dog, smelly dog. If you have any pet allergies, you are going to be sick, and sick of the place, in a matter of hours.

If you complain to the management, you will be at best ignored, at worst told "no".

But that is part of the plan of Extended Stay - if you book on-line for a discount, eventually during your stay, the management will engage you in some kind of argument, in person or over the phone, in hopes that you will be angry enough to bail out. Of course, that means that you will then owe the difference between the discounted long-term rate paid so far, and the full-price nightly rate of a short stay.

While the management of this motel tells callers that it is "full", thus making the $60/night for a $30 slum motel seem like a last chance opportunity, in reality the parking lot is half-full, and so are the rooms.

Most of the guests at this motel are welfare families - singles, mothers and kids - that the county pays for monthly shelter. Younger people and older people with no where else to go. That means you are not mingling with below travelers from the other States/Countries, but rather local welfare clients and persons otherwise down on their luck for housing - with lots of emotional baggage - including hard-on-the-ears partying and quarreling.

Don't expect "housekeeping" to clean your room once-a-week as the booking agreement states. They roll right past your door every day. They clean rooms when guests check out.

As for the kitchenette - mini-fridge and microwave only.

How sad that a motel that looks good from the outside is such a tenement slum.

Room Tip: Look at your room before you pay money for it.

“You're better off sleeping in your car”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 May 2011

people found this review helpful

The biggest reason never to stay here is that I found a bed bug on my pillow in the morning. I took a picture of it and looked it up online to confirm it. Secondly, even though it was a non-smoking room, the odor of it having had smoke in it in the past was overwhelming. The area around it offers nothing - not even restaurants. There were 2 no-name places within 5 miles, otherwise it was all fast food. The office staff was pleasant but otherwise, I have nothing good to say about it. There wasn't a blanket on either bed - only a comforter and stained sheets. The beds were hard and there was noise throughout the whole night from people walking around and going up and down the stairs. We requested a late check-out of noon and at 11am sharp, they banged on the door loud enough to wake the dead. Even after telling them we had a late check-out, 5 minutes later someone else did the same thing. I definitely would never, ever stay here again.

Room Tip: Carefully read the reviews of past travelers!

“DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 October 2009
1
person found this review helpful

When we first got here, I showed the lady at the desk our reservation sheet . I showed that we reserved a room with a queen bed. She informed me that the price I paid was for a doule bed and that if we wanted a queen bed it would be an additional $10.00 per night. We decided to deal with the double bed and got our room keys. We get up to the room and find MANY DIGUSTING problems. There are very large stains on the carpet, there was feces on the roll of toilet paper, urine in the toilet and old food in the microwave. The cabinet doors are swollen and falling apart from getting wet. The shower has mold in it. When we arrived I asked what dishes were included in the room. We were told we should have 1 skillet, 1 pot, 2 dinner plates, 2 coffee mugs, 2 forks and 2 knives, and 2 glasses. Well we got to the room and there was no skillet or pot. I called down to the office and she said "Sorry we dont have any but when my security guard gets here at 11pm I will have him look in storage and see if we have any". Mind you this is at 630 in the evening. 90% of the people in this hotel live here full time. Outside our room there was an overflowing garbage can. I called down to ask them to empty it because it smelled horrible and it was all over the place and was told "They will empty it tomorrow night". I am very paranoid that my car will be gone in the morning when I get up. I wish there was a way to get my money back and go to another hotel but the front desk is refusing to do anything. When I asked to change rooms I was told there were no other rooms available.
