kailianEverything was good until we received a call: first time I missed since I left hotel on the road driving, about a fe minutes later we received the second call. A lady rudely questioned us if we saw a sign to clean up…
AdamClean room, good service, friendly staff.
JanetI one at the desk when I arrived. Wrang the bell and waited 5 minutes for someone to arrive. Room was spacious and clean and good location. Would stay here again.
MelissaOmg..We can not wait to come back and stay here. The room was super clean and well stocked. Bed was a little springy for our liking and no breakfast sandwiches were stocked this morning but we did not mind as the staff…

Questions about Independence Stay
What time is check-in and check-out at Independence Stay?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Independence Stay allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Independence Stay?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does Independence Stay have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Independence Stay have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Independence Stay?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Independence Stay?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
