I recently stayed at the Extended Stay (9000 Tinicum Blvd) in Philadelphia for a period of five weeks while in transition to a full time apartment in Philadelphia. The service and staff were wonderful. I needed a shuttle ride to the train station very early each morning back and forth to work (sometimes late at night) and the service was prompt, reliable, and always on time. The room had a great large screen flat panel TV, and all the amenities of a small sized kitchen that was perfect. Best of all, there is a very caring and friendly house staff that didn't miss a beat. The stay was both pleasant and enjoyable.

I stayed at this hotel toward the end of July. I planned on staying for only one night, and the following night I was planned on staying in Allentown PA, near Dorney Park.
Check in was smooth, I didn't have a problem with anything. The room smelled a little like burnt food, but it is expected with a full kitchen. I did notice the smoke alarms were not plugged up and immediately informed the staff.
The trip seemed smooth, I had no problems up until the morning I planned on checking out. Around 8 am, someone called the room asking if we were checking out. We told them we were and they advised us that check out was 11am. We went back to sleep, a little bothered because we didn't ask for a wakeup call. Around 850am, someone knocked, then banged loudly on our door, saying "hello, are you checking out today, hello." I got up and went to the door and said yes, we told them that on the phone, the woman said "okay well check out is at 11am."
My husband was furious but I calmed him down and ensured him that it was probably just a mix up. Not even an hour later, the same woman comes to our room and actually attempts to open the door, my husband was in the middle of getting dressed and if the safety lock was not on the door she would have walked in on him undressed! I was completely furious by then and when I went down to check out, I asked for the name of the woman that behaved so rudely. There was a nice young gentlemen, however, that was very apologetic and tried to put us as ease while checking out. He gave us a minor discount and apologized many times afterward. I am not the type to have anyone lose their job over this but she completely ruined my stay. I did not ask again for her name, instead I left, ensuring that I would never go to this particular hotel again.

Where can you go with having most of the same amenities of home. Beautiful grounds, wonderful staff and per the kids "Great Pool"...Come bring the family and enjoy a stay out by the pool knowing everyone is safe!!!! My family and I give it 2 thumbs up!!!

Had to travel to PA for a funeral. Originally reserved with another hotel chain which was terrible. Made reservations at Extended stay and it was great. Great staff, accomodations. About the only negative comment is there is only one baggage cart for the whole place, so check-in took awhile while we awaited our turn.
