Extended Stay America Austin Metro

When I got there they told me they over booked and said I didn’t have a room then gave me a “deluxe” suite which the freezer door would not shut completely (we couldn’t use the freezer it was room temperature) the room also smelled like mildew worst experience I’ve ever have using Expedia

Warning: This hotel does NOT honor reservations. I booked a room 9 days in advance & read their terms of service carefully before booking, which CLEARLY states check-in time STARTS at 3 pm, you will be charged if you don’t check in by 6pm, check on times are listed & They Do Not Honor Their Own Stated Policies. They Lie & can not be trusted. At 5 pm, as I was about 15 minutes from hotel, they called to tell me they Would NOT honor my reservation, they had OVERBOOKED & reservations are on a “first come, first served basis” Again, their own policy as stated is that check-in time STARTS at -in time iSTARTS at 3pm. Reservations are on a “first come first served”basis?!?! Their website says NOTHING like this - the GM blatantly LIED to me, the company is dishonest & Does Not Honor Reservations! As it was the first day of SXSW, there was no possibility of finding another room in Austin. Do Not Trust This “Hotel” to honor your reservation. The manager threatened to NOT refund my money because of my “attitude” - even tho THEY DID NOT HONOR MY RESERVATION! - I was less than 15 minutes away & would have been there well before 6pm - & their “policies” CLEARY state check-in times & says NOTHING about “first come first served”. Do Not Trust This “Hotel” to honor your reservations. They are dishonest, making a reservation is useless - They Do Not Honor Reservations!!!!

It was in bad neighborhood and it was dirty. My reservation was not secure and was cancelled by the hotel.

Stuff doesn't work, room stale, uncomfortable, deskperson not attentive, property and rooms need updating badly

The staff are very understanding and accommodating

This was horrible it needs cleaning and also there were roaches crawling the microwave and refrigerator was horrible I’m a travel nurse and it left a really bad impression compared to your other properties it was definitely not worth the money and I was so nervous about the bugs I slept with the lights ON

Trash everywhere. Every night there was a fight or a party or crackheads around every corner.

Adults running around the parking lot barefoot. Urine on the floor of the elevator. When our elevator opened up on our floor, the was trash throughout the hall and chicken wings all over the floor. Our room had needle caps, and weed stems in the drawers. The room smelled like pee. We got there at 10:15pm to check in and left at 10:30 and had to find other hotel. We would like a refund.

Horrendous! Where to start? I’ll go with the good, First the check in guy super cool, no problems with him…. Our room was cleaner than I expected given the rest of the property. Now the bad, Our room was next to the stairwell, we attempted to use the stairwell as the elevator was filthy, there was a wet flood sign just laying there and sawdust all over the floor. But when we walked into the stairwell it smelled like human feces and urine. I just about vomited and had to turn back to use the elevator. The room keys, we had to have them reset every time we left the room. One time I waited, yelling for a counter clerk for 10 mins and no one ever showed. They were somewhere in the building and finally showed up. The staff doesn’t care, and it shows. Do not stay here. Run!!!

Furniture and appliances in poor condition; TV remote was missing and the replacement they gave me didn’t work. A lot of people hanging out in the halls and lobby and even lying and sleeping on furniture in the lobby. This hotel appears to be in use for providing housing to the homeless, which I think is commendable (and necessary!), but as such it should not be available for tourists. Keep it one or the other but not both. On the plus side, there was plenty of parking, and the coffee was hot (and good), and the property was quiet.
