In Oklahoma City for a work training and our training course arranged a good deal with Extended Stay. It was really cheap and that was the only reason I stayed there.
The whole place is totally and completely rundown, the room is smelly, dirty, moldy bathroom, gross countertops, horrible carpet-everything was horrible. The hallway was the same. When they clean they don't really clean, and even then it's only once a week. But it was so cheap I was kind of prepared to overlook all that.
The real problem was the people who are staying there. It attracts a certain type of crowd- by that I mean drunk, some aggressive, etc. I didn't feel safe there as soon as I arrived- and should have followed my gut instinct as a man tried to chase after me in the stairwell one morning at 6am- I had to run for my life. There is supposedly security overnight, but not enough, with all the drunk sketchy people staying around there-and during the week too, not just the weekends. I heard other guests complaining of people trying to break into their rooms in the middle of the night, and the police were there twice in the two weeks I was there. Not good. Definitely would not recommend for women staying alone.
That being said, the front desk staff are all really nice, and feel bad about the situation, it's not like they can do that much about it. After my stairwell incident they arranged for me to be moved for the duration of my training to the MUCH nicer Extended Stay Deluxe down the expressway, for the same rate.
Despite the great staff(except the cleaning staff, they are NOT GREAT), I would definitely not recommend staying here. Don't do it!!!
