This hotel was awesome!!! The room was clean and looked newly remodeled! It was very comfortable and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful! My husband and I loved this place. We were glad we cancelled our Mariott reservations to stay here. Will definately come back!

Hint: to enter you room, push the key card in ALL the way! As explained to me, they are not electronic.

My room with a refrig and microwave was fine. No shampoo provided. The WiFi worked
great! The bed was rather stiff and hard but for one night was OK.

The room I checked into was dirty so I requested another room. The other room was a bit cleaner but smelled like smoke as well as dog urine. The rooms need to be remodeled I spent over $400 for a week stay this hotel is really not worth the money. The hotel is pet friendly so you never know if you are sleeping where someone's dog has slept or eating out of the same bowl that the dog has eaten out of. The front desk staff wasn't rude but wasn't friendly either; tolerant.

It's usually a good sign when you arrive at a hotel or motel and the parking lot is full. Such was the case at the Extended Stay America in Merrillville, IN. The person at the front desk was pleasant, considerate, and helpful. Every aspect of my room was clean and in good order. I've had some negative experiences with some Extended Stay America hotels in recent years, but this particular hotel was outstanding in every way.
