    I liked the price. I booked my stay for the Kentucky Derby. I had checked other hotels and they were way more expensive, like one night vs what I paid for my whole stay. It had good reviews so I went for it. I had never previously stayed at an Extended Stay so didn't realize the laundry service was extra. I did look back at my booking and did see it had said that. You get 2 bath towels, 2 wash clothes and 1 bathmat. To exchange them, it costs you $2.06.
