Extended Stay America Select Suites - Rockford - State Street

The experience was one of contrasts. The room was spacious and quiet but also old and worn. The room included a kitchen but surprisingly no cookware. Only one waste basket in the room. The desk trim was falling off. But I slept well and the shower was great. No coffee maker, no breakfast but also no bowls or silverware in the kitchen. Overall it was worth the price but instead of amazing it was a little frustrating in lacking amenities available elsewhere for less.

Quiet, clean, convenient and the staff is very accommodating.

I love the backyard bbq area and the staff was amazing.

There isn’t a pool

We were camping but the Rockford area was being hit by bad thunderstorms and under a tornado watch so we needed a quick reservation and were fortunate that there was a room available. We were happy with the cleanliness and spaciousness! We didn’t bring any shampoo so we had to make do with the provided bar of soap but, one night only, not a problem. We like a super soft bed and this one was quite firm (not rock hard). If we needed to stay a week here, we would have had some bad issues. If you like a firm mattress, you’re golden!

The backyard patio

The WiFi connection wasn’t the best

We were disappointed by the inaccurate description. The fully equipped kitchen had nothing in it. Luckily we hadn’t stopped at a grocery store to get our own fixings for dinner. Also you can hear every step made from upstairs. The room was clean and fine for our one night stay.

It said nonsmoking. But people were smoking right at front entrance. A bug crawled out of the faucet. They had a balcony but the seating was disgusting. Just a very old hotel. Needs a lot of renovations.

There is not an inviting lobby and the rooms were a good size but very outdated and stained.
