Pros

Only good thing is that the benefits are good. Then again it has to because they work you like a slave so you will be visiting the doctor often. If you want to work every aspect of the hotel without it being your job description then this is the place to be. Trust me use this experience and add it to your resume.

Cons

Upper Management sucks and they suck really bad. there is little to know follow up and when they are issue guess who gets blamed! The rooms are run down and needs some serious updating.

Pros

-You learn everything and deal with many different types of situations. Great if you want to gain knowledge of hospitality and the good and bad that comes with it. -Ability to build your resume and job skills. After working here, you will be ahead of the curve when dealing with STAR Reporting, budgeting, department management and recruiting. Extended Stay expects their GMs to wear many hats, and you will wear many hats. -Flexibility of hours if you are a General Manager -Ability to recruit and build your own staff.

Cons

-Many properties operate without strong in-house management support. Absence of an AGM or Team Lead is a reality at most properties. Be ready to be on call at all times. -Staffing needs to be less of a cookie cutter approach and more about how much revenue against the budget the hotel makes. Many hotels are understaffed with more occupancy and revenue and many hotels are overstaffed with lack of occupancy and revenue.

Pros

The location was perfect.

Cons

Well let me start with they are always incomplete. Everything I asked for that I needed for the kitchen they didn't have. I had to go and buy myself some plates, silverware pot and pans.
