Disappointing
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Extended stay had no pot, plate, spoon.
No utensils! The stove and the fridge were there.

I left my iPhone charger on the wall by the bed. Called within a couple of hours after checking out. Front desk said that the cleaning crew had not been to the room yet, to call back later.

Called back later, they said to call back again. The next day I went in person and front desk said that the time to go into the room and check for forgotten things is before the cleaning crew goes in.
