What guests think

At Extended Stay America Suites - Tacoma - Fife, reviews are mixed: guests appreciate the kitchenettes, gated parking and value, but report cleanliness lapses, minimal grab-and-go breakfast, and inconsistent service with check-in delays and refund disputes.

The surrounding area feels industrial and sketchy to several reviewers, though freeway access is convenient and the fenced, gated lot improves security. Room comfort varies widely, from quiet, comfortable stays and new beds or TVs to worn furnishings, noise from appliances, and issues like failing AC or nonworking lights. Expect a basic, budget stay with tradeoffs.

The newest cost savings measure seems to be removing the in room coffee machine. That is unforgivable to addicts like me. I realize coffee is available in the lobby but that's lots of walking required before coffee to get coffee... Everything else was fine.

So this place was nice but didn’t have things most hotels have like an ice machine, had vending machines that only took ATM but had no water options, had no coffee pot and I didn’t see any soap, shampoo etc..good thing we had our own. We did have a kitchenette but no cookware or utensils, we read that you could request it for a fee. Also housekeeping was only offered if you stayed past 7 days. Should you need it before 7 days, you are charged a fee. The area was quiet. The lady who checked us in was very nice & helpful!

Drove over 500 miles transporting rvs. Needed a stay for night to deliver in morning. Arrived to hotel that is gated. Tons of people hanging outside. Couldn’t find parking to park truck and trailer. Went inside to talk with front desk. Waited 20 mins with ringing service bell. No response. Phone ringing off the hook. Went outside for another 20/30 mins to try and figure out what to do with a place to stay. Went back in and still no one around. Finally yelled to the back to see if someone was even there. Then the lady come up to desk from back and sad they do not allow over size vehicles. Now even more upset as there is nothing on the booking process to state that. Couldn’t try for cancellation cause it was past check in. Had to go spend another 130.00 on a hotel that could accommodate. Do not stay- ghetto. Truckers pick another location.

Its my favorite place to dtay in this area The only bad experience was when my vehical was towed away and impounded due to the parking pass i was issued falling off my mirror Yes technically it was displayed properly there for it could be towed But it wouldnt have taken very much effort on the part of management to figure out whos car it was and if they had paid to be here or not It was $600 and it was only at the impound lot for 1hr I think the policy should be looked at so that a paying customer that has the right to park there doesnt have his vehical towed away just because his pass fell from his mirror and didnt notice as he walked away from the car. A little effort to see who life your going to totally derail by taking the car that they need to survive out here

There were holes in the curtain in the rooms. Black mold in the ceiling right outside our room. We were very concerned not only for ourselves but the housekeepers that need to work in the mold daily. The hallway also had a foul odor I’m guessing from the mold.

Walked into my room to a horrible smell and dried pee on the bathroom floor. Rooms are clearly not properly cleaned or inspected in-between guests. When I asked for a new room they told me they were all sold out and they would just go clean my room really quick. After watching a cleaner go to the room with nothing but a rag and spray bottle I knew I was in for a rough stay. After expressing my disappointment further a different room magically came available. The second room was also disgusting with black hairs everywhere and mold in the bathroom. Absolutely will never be staying here again.

I was put in a room with a broken air conditioner. When I called the front desk, I was told "Yea our maintenance man hasn't gotten around to fixing that yet." I said "You put me in a room, and you knew the air conditioner was broken in 95 degree weather?" I asked for another room and was told they were full. This was after 9 at night. Then I looked around the room and bedside lamp covered in dust and soda rings on the counter. With no where else to go, I tried to open the window, they only open an inch and there was a woman smoking right under my window. The best part was when the fire alarm went off at 2AM. Everyone exited the hotel and going down the hallway is a man covered in blood. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Stay away!

Arrived at midnight, staff said I couldn’t check in until 2 due to the “night audit.” Had to sleep in my truck for 2 hours. Once I did check in, I saw bags of trash lining the hallways where guests had stuck them outside their door and were never picked up. The whole place obviously stunk because of this. The inside of the room smelled the same, the floor was covered in a sticky film that my shoes stuck to. The neighboring room had a yappy dog that constantly barked and screeching from what sounded like a parrot. I made it until 3am and then decided it was best to just go back out to my truck to sleep

We were attending a 2 day festival a few miles away that got over close to the end of the checkin window. I called the day before and was told we could checkin early since the festival started before the checkin time did and to come in before (she even wrote a note for the next shift which they never received), when we arrived was told that was not possible & they had no idea what I was talking about but they will have a room for us ready when we return tonight. The lady at the desk took my ID and did all paperwork required to check us in and wrote a note for the night shift that we would be checking in late, she guaranteed we would have a room and to not worry about it. We arrived at 11:30pm and were told they are over booked and they don’t have a room for us. I made every effort to ensure a room would be available and even pre-paid through Expedia 4 months in advance, which did not matter to this hotel. They overbooked on purpose knowing they were already fully booked. There were literally NO hotels with rooms available within a 25 mile area so we ended up driving the 2 hour drive home and will have to do the same tonight for the 2nd day of the festival. I can not recommend this hotel to anyone, the staff don’t communicate with each other and they lie to your face.

Currently homeless and door dashing just to have a room each night. No matter where my day ends, I look at this location first purely because of how amazing the gal behind the counter is. She’s made coming here so welcoming and friendly and you just don’t get that at every hotel, let alone every location of extended stay. No matter how upset I’ve seen guests about details she couldn’t control, she has remained calm and professional each time. The energy in the room just goes flat whenever it’s someone else behind that counter. Please keep her.

Set their own rules about the check-in age, even though the official terms and conditions tell a different story. Somehow couldn’t check in because I’m 20, but was old enough to turn around and go to the bus station by foot at almost midnight. The most impressive thing about the story is that they won’t give my money back, explaining that their manager doesn’t remember telling my desk assistant about all that check-in nonsense over the phone. I have no problem with the desk assistant who was genuinely concerned for my safety and helped me a ton during my short stay in the lobby, I don’t know how to thank her enough. Still cannot give my money back, even escalated this problem for the second time.

The night manager of the hotel was fantastic. Hotels.com had overbooked and when we arrived, the manager said that he did not have a room for us. He was able to find another room for us so that we didn't sleep out in the cold. Tacoma was literally 100% booked due to the conference that we were attending. Thank you so much to the night manager! He really saved our bacon.

The location is convenient to the freeway but sits in an industrial, sketchy area with little within walking distance; several guests felt safer thanks to the security fence and gated lot. Public transit access is inconvenient.

The property is in an industrial and dirty part of town. The property is surrounded by a security fence which was a bit reassuring since the old hotel a few doors down is burned out, covered in graffiti and appears to be a refuge for drug activity. The hotel itself was in fair condition, however we did find hair and dried toothpaste in the bathroom sink upon arrival and one of the beds almost looked as though it had been slept in. We checked out a day early as we were heading into Seattle for the night and although I was told we would be refunded for the night, I have yet to see a refund.

Terrible. Staff was rude on check in. No garbage can in room other than the small trash can in bathroom. Bed very uncomfortable and the room smelled horribly like air conditioner antifreeze smell. Tiny microwave that barely big enough to reheat take out that couldn’t be eaten during to no silverware, dishes or cups. Room was cold and noisy neighbors. Breakfast was a joke. Bad coffee, frozen muffins that crumbled like sand, and nutrigrain bars that tasted like they were forgotten in a box for a year. Parking was a joke, I needed a handicap parking that was taken by motorcycle that didn’t have handicap tags. I have difficulty walking and had to walk from around the back of the building. I will not stay there again.

For the price it was fine. "Grab and go" breakfast was a joke: mini muffins, hot cocoa, coffee, instant oatmeal. Thats it. No fruit, nothing. Biggest gripes are no hair dryer in the room, and they came by at 9am to replace the tv and beds across the hotel. I told them, No thanks, i check out at 11. They abided, but come on, you shouldnt be doing that until folks check out.
