A: **Yes**, Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. is located within a short drive of several parks, nature preserves, and green spaces. 

While the immediate area around the hotel (on Skinner Lake Drive near the St. Johns Town Center) is primarily commercial and retail-focused, nearby outdoor and green spaces include:

* **UNF Nature Trails / Wildlife Sanctuary:** Located just across I-295 on the University of North Florida campus (about 3 to 4 miles away, a 5–10 minute drive), offering miles of shaded hiking and walking trails through pine flatwoods and cypress swamps.
* **Deerwood Rotary Children’s Park:** Located about 2.5 miles south, featuring a playground, open grass, and family-friendly recreation.
* **Dog Wood Park of Jacksonville:** Located roughly 2 to 3 miles away, this is a popular 42-acre off-leash park featuring large open fields and swimming ponds (especially convenient since the hotel is pet-friendly).
* **Fort Family Regional Park at Baymeadows:** Roughly a 10-minute drive southwest, offering paved walking trails around a lake, sports fields, tennis courts, and picnic areas.
* **Jacksonville Arboretum & Botanical Gardens:** Located about 6 miles northeast (roughly a 10-minute drive), featuring scenic walking trails through diverse ecosystems, gardens, and around a central lake.


Q: Is Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. within walking distance of major attractions?
A: **No, not for major Jacksonville attractions, but it is within walking distance of retail and dining.**

* **Major city attractions:** City highlights such as **Downtown Jacksonville**, the **Jacksonville Zoo & Gardens**, **TIAA Bank Field / EverBank Stadium**, and **Jacksonville Beach** are 8 to 20 miles away. You will need a car or rideshare service to reach them.
* **Local shopping and dining:** The hotel (located at 10020 Skinner Lake Dr.) sits just off Gate Parkway. Strip centers like *The Crossing at Town Center* are about a 5- to 10-minute walk (around 0.3 miles) away. 
* **St. Johns Town Center:** The open-air retail and dining hub itself is roughly 0.8 to 1.2 miles away. While technically reachable on foot (a 15- to 25-minute walk), the route involves suburban multi-lane roads, intersections, and parking lots, so most guests prefer a short 3- to 5-minute drive.


Q: Is this location convenient for business travel at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **Yes, the location is very convenient for business travel**, particularly if your work is centered in Jacksonville’s Southside commercial corridor or suburban business parks. However, its suitability depends on where your meetings are located and your expectations regarding hotel amenities:

---

### **Advantages for Business Travelers**
* **Proximity to Key Corporate Hubs:** The hotel is located in the Southside/Deerwood Park area, one of Jacksonville’s largest employment and suburban office centers (home to major financial services, healthcare companies, and regional corporate offices).
* **Easy Highway Access:** It sits just off **J. Turner Butler Boulevard (FL-202)** and near **I-295**, making commutes east toward Jacksonville Beach, north toward downtown, or south toward St. Johns County straightforward by car.
* **Dining and Retail Options:** It is about 1–1.5 miles from **St. Johns Town Center**, giving you quick access to dozens of sit-down restaurants, casual dining, and retail options for client dinners or after-work meals.
* **Extended-Stay Practicality:** The suites include full kitchens (refrigerator, stovetop, microwave) and free Wi-Fi, making it cost-effective for multi-day or multi-week assignments. Free on-site parking is also included.

---

### **Potential Drawbacks to Consider**
* **Distance from Downtown & JAX Airport:** 
  * It is roughly **20–25 miles (a 30-minute drive)** from **Jacksonville International Airport (JAX)**. 
  * It is about **9–12 miles southeast of Downtown Jacksonville**. If your business is primarily at the courthouse, city center, or prime convention venues, morning rush-hour traffic along I-95/FL-202 can add commute time.
* **Heavy Traffic Around Town Center:** Traffic congestion on Gate Parkway and J. Turner Butler Blvd can be heavy during peak morning and evening rush hours, as well as holiday shopping seasons.
* **Basic Business Amenities:** As an **Extended Stay America "Select Suites"** property, it is an economy/budget-tier hotel. It typically lacks dedicated on-site business centers, meeting/boardrooms, or full-service hotel amenities found at higher-tier corporate hotels (such as Marriott, Hyatt, or Hilton) nearby. 

---

### **Summary**
* **Best if:** You have meetings in the Southside, Deerwood, or University of North Florida area, need extended or self-catering accommodations on a budget, and have a car.
* **Less ideal if:** You need immediate access to Downtown Jacksonville, require frequent airport commutes, or expect full-service business hotel facilities.

Q: What transportation options are available from the airport to Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: The **Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr.** (located at 10020 Skinner Lake Dr.) is approximately **24–25 miles** south of **Jacksonville International Airport (JAX)**. Driving time is generally around **25 to 35 minutes**, depending on traffic.

Because this location **does not provide a dedicated airport shuttle** (only select Extended Stay America properties near the airport offer shuttles), your primary transportation options include:

---

### 1. Rideshare (Uber / Lyft) – *Most Convenient*
* **Pickup Location:** Outside the main terminal on the ground transportation/baggage claim level.

* **Hotel Parking:** If you rent a car, the hotel offers **free self-parking on-site** for guests.
* **Driving Route:** Take **I-95 South**, transition to **I-295 South** (or SR-9A), exit toward Town Center Pkwy / Butler Blvd (FL-202), and turn onto Skinner Lake Drive.

---

### 4. Public Transit (JTA Bus) – *Budget Option (Not Recommended with Luggage)*
* **Overview:** The Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) runs bus services from JAX.
* **Route:** You can take the **Route 1** bus from the airport to the JTA Downtown Transfer Center (JRTC), transfer to a Southside/Town Center connector bus (such as Route 82 or First Coast Flyer routes), and take a local bus or short rideshare to Skinner Lake Drive.
* **Travel Time:** Roughly **1.5 to 2.5 hours** due to transfers.
* **Cost:** Around **$1.75 to $3.00** per one-way fare.


Q: Will I need a car if I stay here at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **In most cases, yes, you will want a car.** However, whether it is strictly *mandatory* depends on what you plan to do during your stay:

### 1. If you only plan to stay around the hotel & St. Johns Town Center:
* **You can get by without one (using walking + rideshares).** 
* The hotel (at 10020 Skinner Lake Dr) is located about **1 to 1.5 miles** from **St. Johns Town Center**. 
* While walking is theoretically possible to nearby chain restaurants or spots right off Skinner Lake Drive/Gate Parkway, the area is suburban and dominated by multi-lane thoroughfares. Walking in the Florida heat or crossing large intersections can be uncomfortable and tedious.
* Short rideshares (Uber or Lyft) to and from the Town Center mall, restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment spots are quick and relatively cheap.

### 2. If you want to explore Jacksonville or travel for work:
* **You will definitely need a car.** 
* Jacksonville is the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States, and its public transit (JTA buses) is slow and limited, especially for cross-town travel.
* Getting anywhere outside the immediate neighborhood requires a drive:
  * **Jacksonville Beach:** ~15–20 minutes drive
  * **Downtown Jacksonville / San Marco:** ~15–20 minutes drive
  * **Jacksonville International Airport (JAX):** ~30–35 minutes drive
  * **Mayo Clinic Jacksonville:** ~10–15 minutes drive
* Rerelying exclusively on rideshares for long distances across the city will add up quickly, making a rental car much more cost-effective.

### Summary
If your trip is a short, localized stay centered on the immediate Southside/Town Center area, you can manage with **Uber/Lyft**. For virtually any broader visit, commuting, or sightseeing, **having a car is strongly recommended** (and the hotel offers free on-site parking).

---

### **Where It Works for Families**
* **In-Room Kitchens:** Every suite includes a full refrigerator, stovetop, and microwave, which makes it easy to prepare meals, store snacks, and save on dining out.
* **Great Surrounding Area:** It sits right near **St. Johns Town Center**, one of Jacksonville’s best shopping, dining, and entertainment corridors, giving you convenient access to plenty of restaurants and stores.
* **Budget-Friendly:** If you are staying for a week or more and need affordable rates with on-site laundry, it is typically cheaper than standard resort-style hotels.

---

### **Major Drawbacks for a Summer Vacation**
* **No Swimming Pool:** During the hot, humid Florida summer, most families expect a pool. This property **does not have a swimming pool**, which is a significant downside for kids after a long day in the heat.
* **Far from the Beach:** It is located in the commercial Southside/suburban area. Reaching Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach, or Ponte Vedra takes about a 20–25 minute drive depending on traffic.
* **Basic "Select Suites" Amenities:** The *Select Suites* tier is the brand’s bare-bones extended-stay concept. There is no complimentary hot breakfast, daily housekeeping is generally not included (or costs extra for short stays), and you often have to request basic kitchenware/dishes from the front desk upon arrival.
* **Guest Review Trends:** Across major booking platforms (such as Kayak, Booking.com, and Google), the property holds mediocre ratings (often hovering around 5.5 to 6.5 out of 10). Common complaints point to dated interiors, maintenance delays, and standard extended-stay wear-and-tear.

---

### **The Verdict**
* **If your vacation revolves around beaches, relaxation, and kid-friendly amenities:** Look elsewhere. A mid-tier hotel with a pool closer to the beaches (e.g., in Jacksonville Beach) or a family-friendly hotel in Southside with a pool and breakfast included (like a Hampton Inn, SpringHill Suites, or Hyatt Place) will provide a much better summer experience.
* **If you strictly need an affordable room with a kitchen** to serve as a sleep-and-go base while visiting family or running errands around Jacksonville, it can suffice—provided you set expectations for a no-frills, budget extended-stay hotel.

Q: What is the difference between early and late summer at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: At **Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr.**, hotel amenities and services remain consistent year-round (all rooms feature in-suite kitchens, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and access to on-site guest laundry and an outdoor picnic/grill area). 

However, your experience staying there differs between **early summer (June–early July)** and **late summer (August–September)** primarily due to local weather, tropical storm patterns, and area activity:

### 1. Weather and Climate
* **Early Summer (June to early July):** Temperatures typically range in the upper 80s to low 90s (°F). While humid, June often brings more manageable evening conditions and slightly more sunshine between typical afternoon pop-up thunderstorms.
* **Late Summer (August to September):** This is the hottest, muggiest time of the year in Jacksonville, with peak heat indices frequently exceeding 100°F. Humidity is at its highest, meaning you’ll rely much more heavily on the hotel's in-room air conditioning.

### 2. Atlantic Hurricane Season
* **Early Summer:** June marks the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season, but tropical storms and hurricanes are historically infrequent in Northeast Florida during this early window.
* **Late Summer:** Mid-August through September represents the historical **peak of the Atlantic hurricane season**. While direct hits are uncommon in Jacksonville, late-summer guests face a noticeably higher chance of severe tropical downpours, high winds, travel delays, or localized flooding.

### 3. Crowds and Area Activity
* **Early Summer:** The nearby **St. Johns Town Center** (open-air retail and dining) and local beach corridors (Jacksonville Beach is about a 15–20 minute drive east) see elevated summer vacation traffic, with families traveling once schools let out.
* **Late Summer:** In mid-to-late August, local K–12 schools and nearby **University of North Florida (UNF)** resume classes. As a result:
  * Traffic along the Southside corridor (J. Turner Butler Blvd and Gate Parkway) shifts from leisure/vacation traffic to heavy weekday student and commuter rush-hour congestion.
  * You may see increased demand at extended-stay hotels in August from relocating students, university staff, or arriving contract workers.

### Summary
* Choose **early summer** for more reliable outdoor recreation (shopping, using the outdoor picnic area/grill, or visiting the beaches) before peak heat and humidity settle in.
* Expect **late summer** to bring higher humidity, more intense tropical rain risks, and shifting local traffic due to the start of the school and college year.

It operates as an economy/extended-stay hotel focusing on basic suite accommodations with in-room kitchens, free Wi-Fi, and guest laundry rather than resort-style recreational packaging.

A: **Yes, group booking discounts are available** at the **Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr.** through Extended Stay America’s corporate and group travel programs.

A: **Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.** does not offer traditional resort-style or all-inclusive "holiday vacation packages" (such as bundles including meals, event tickets, or scheduled tours).

   The property offers automatically tiered discounts if you stay longer over the holidays (e.g., 7+ nights or 30+ nights).
3. **Membership & Group Rates:**  
   Discounted rates are available year-round, including during holidays, through **Extended Perks** (their loyalty program), as well as discounts for **AAA/Auto Club, seniors (55+), and military/government personnel**.
4. **Third-Party Travel Bundles:**  
   If you are looking for a complete travel package (combining hotel accommodations with flights or rental cars), third-party travel sites such as Expedia, Priceline, or Kayak occasionally allow you to build flight-plus-hotel packages that include this property.

To check whether specific holiday promotional promo codes or seasonal sales are available for your exact dates, check the **Special Offers** tab directly on the [Extended Stay America website](https://www.extendedstayamerica.com) or call the hotel directly.


Q: Are there last-minute deals available at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: Whether a "last-minute deal" is available at **Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr.** depends on daily occupancy, your specific check-in date, and length of stay.

### 2. Third-Party Booking Sites (OTAs)

* Flash apps like **HotelTonight** occasionally list unsold inventory for the Jacksonville area at lower prices on the day of arrival.

### Recommended Next Step
To see real-time availability and exact pricing for tonight or this week:
1. Search your dates directly on the **[Extended Stay America official website](https://www.extendedstayamerica.com)** (apply *Extended Perks* or promo codes if available).

Q: Are there midweek specials at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: The **Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr.** does not advertise a standalone, permanent package specifically called a “Midweek Special.” 

However, you can secure lower rates for midweek stays through a few standard brand features:

1. **Natural Midweek Dynamic Pricing:** Like most hotels, standard nightly rates at this location fluctuate based on occupancy. Midweek nights (Sunday through Thursday) frequently price lower than peak weekend dates (starting around the mid-$50s per night depending on seasonality).

### 1. Dynamic Seasonal and Demand-Based Pricing
* Like most hotels in Jacksonville, room rates fluctuate dynamically based on time of year, day of the week, and occupancy levels.
* You will naturally see **substantially lower base rates** during Jacksonville’s typical travel lulls—such as late fall through winter (outside of holiday weekends and major sporting events like the Florida–Georgia game)—compared to peak spring/summer months.

### 2. Available Ongoing Discounts and Rate Tiers
Even if you aren't booking during an off-peak period, you can reduce rates using the brand's standard discount structures:

A: **Yes, you can connect multiple devices** (such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets) to the free Wi-Fi during your stay. 

A few things to keep in mind regarding how their network operates:

* **Log-in Portal:** Extended Stay America properties use a captive portal (splash page) where you enter your room details and access code to authenticate. You will generally need to sign in separately on each device.
* **Bandwidth & Speeds:** The complimentary tier provides standard bandwidth suitable for web browsing, emails, and social media. If you run bandwidth-heavy activities (like HD streaming, video calls, or online gaming) across several devices at the same time, you may experience slower speeds.
* **Enhanced Wi-Fi:** Extended Stay America offers an optional, paid **Enhanced High-Speed Wi-Fi** upgrade if you find you need faster speeds and additional bandwidth across your devices.
* **Device Workaround:** If you plan on connecting devices that don't have built-in web browsers to clear the login page (such as streaming sticks, smart speakers, or gaming consoles), traveling with a portable **travel router** allows you to connect multiple devices to a single registered connection.


Q: Can I make a reservation without a credit card at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **No, generally you cannot.** 

According to Extended Stay America’s booking policies:

1. **Guaranteeing a Reservation:** A valid credit card (or major bank debit card) is required to guarantee and book a reservation online or over the phone. 
2. **Short Stays (Under 7 Nights):** For stays of fewer than seven nights, the hotel requires a valid credit/debit card for room payment and incidentals at check-in.
3. **Longer Stays (7+ Nights) / Walk-ins:** Extended Stay America properties sometimes accept cash or certified payments for longer stays paid weekly in advance, but they typically still require a valid card or a substantial security deposit (often up to $100–$250) at check-in for incidentals. 

If you do not have a credit card:
* You can usually book using a **major bank-issued debit card** (with a Visa or Mastercard logo) that has sufficient funds for the room charge plus an incidental hold.
* If you need to pay purely with **cash or a third-party authorization**, contact the property directly at **(904) 642-9911** prior to arrival to ask if the front desk manager can arrange a walk-in booking or provide a cash-deposit alternative.

A: **Yes**, you can pay for (or cover) the deposit with a credit card. In fact, using a credit card is the hotel’s standard and preferred method.

### Key details to know:
* **Pre-authorization hold:** The deposit is typically processed as a temporary pre-authorization hold on your credit card for incidental or damage protection (usually ranging from **$100 up to $250**, depending on room type and length of stay). 
* **Requirements:** The credit card presented at check-in must be valid, have sufficient available credit to cover room charges plus the hold, and match the government-issued photo ID of the primary registered guest. Accepted cards include Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
* **Release time:** Because it is an authorization hold rather than a settled charge, the hold is released upon room inspection after check-out. It generally takes **3 to 7 business days** (and up to 14 business days depending on your issuing bank) for the hold to disappear from your account.


Q: Can I request early check-in or late check-out at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?

Q: Is a voltage converter available at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **No**, Extended Stay America Select Suites – Jacksonville – Southside – St. Johns Towne Ctr. does not provide voltage converters for guests.

### What you should do:
1. **Check your device:** Most modern laptops, smartphones, tablets, and camera chargers are dual-voltage (**100–240V, 50/60Hz**). If your power brick states this, you only need a cheap **plug shape adapter** (e.g., UK/EU to US Type A/B), not a voltage converter.
2. **High-draw/heating appliances:** Items like foreign hair dryers, straighteners, or electric shavers typically require an actual voltage converter or should be left at home.

Q: Is the Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. a "conversion", "Adaptive re-use" or "New build"?
A: In hospitality and real estate terms, the **Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.** (located at 10020 Skinner Lake Dr.) is a **brand conversion** (hotel-to-hotel conversion). 

Key context regarding the categories:

* **Conversion (hotel rebrand):** The property was not constructed recently as a brand-new build under its current name; it was originally developed and operated as a **Homestead Village / Homestead Studio Suites** extended-stay hotel. It was later converted and rebranded into an Extended Stay America property (and eventually placed under the *Select Suites* tier) following corporate mergers and portfolio realignments. 
* **Not an Adaptive Re-use:** The building was purpose-built as an extended-stay hotel, meaning it was never converted from a non-hospitality use (such as an office, warehouse, or school) to a hotel. 
* **Not a New Build:** It is an existing, older extended-stay property rather than ground-up new construction for the current brand.


Q: Is the free internet at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. limited to certain hours or available 24/7?
A: The free Wi-Fi internet at **Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.** is available **24/7** throughout your stay. It is not restricted to specific hours.

Q: Is the free internet speed at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. suitable for video streaming and work?
A: In short: **Generally no—not reliably.** 

While the property offers complimentary Wi-Fi, the **free tier is typically insufficient for seamless video streaming and professional remote work** (especially video conferencing or large file transfers). 

### What to Expect:

* **Free Wi-Fi Performance:** 
  Across the Extended Stay America brand (especially their budget-tier *Select Suites*), the complimentary Wi-Fi is strictly intended for basic use. Speeds are typically throttled to around **1 to 3 Mbps**. While this is adequate for sending emails, messaging, and basic web browsing, it often results in buffering, reduced video resolution (standard definition only), and frequent lag or drops during Zoom/Teams calls.
* **Network Congestion:** 
  During peak hours (evenings from 6 PM to 10 PM), speeds can slow down further as more guests stream media on shared bandwidth.
* **Enhanced (Paid) Wi-Fi:** 
  Extended Stay America offers an **“Enhanced High-Speed Internet” upgrade**. You can purchase this directly through the captive portal when connecting your device. It generally delivers significantly faster speeds (often advertised as up to 4× standard speeds) and is much better suited for HD streaming, remote desktop connections, and video meetings.

### Recommendations:
1. **Budget for the Upgrade:** If you must use the hotel’s network for work, plan on paying for the paid "Enhanced" Wi-Fi tier upon arrival.
2. **Bring a Mobile Hotspot / Cellular Backup:** Because hotel Wi-Fi can vary depending on your room's distance from the nearest access point, having a mobile hotspot or phone tethering capability is strongly advised if your work requires uninterrupted video calls or strict uptime.

Q: Can I leave my pet unattended in the room at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **Yes, but with strict conditions.** 

According to Extended Stay America’s brand pet guidelines:

* **Must be crated/contained:** When you leave your pet unattended in the room, they should be secured in a pet crate or carrier. This prevents room damage, keeps your pet safe, and ensures hotel staff or emergency maintenance can safely enter if needed.
* **No disturbances:** The pet must not cause excessive noise (such as continuous barking or whining) that disturbs neighboring guests. Hotels reserve the right to ask you to return or make alternative boarding arrangements if noise complaints arise.
* **Housekeeping coordination:** Extended Stay America staff will not enter or service a room while an unattended pet is loose.
* **Standard limits & fees:** The hotel allows up to **two pets per room** with size restrictions (under 36 inches long/tall), and daily pet fees apply.

**Recommendation:** Always notify the front desk at check-in that your pet may be left crated in the room, and leave an active contact phone number so staff can reach you immediately if an issue occurs.


Q: Can I pay with cash at check-in at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: **Yes, but with specific conditions and deposit requirements.**

The requirements for paying with cash at check-in for this location:

* **Refundable Security Deposit:** The hotel requires a security deposit for incidentals or damages. If paying with cash (or if you do not have a credit card on file), a cash deposit—typically **$100 to $250 per stay**—is collected at check-in. 
* **Length of Stay Conditions:** Across the Extended Stay America brand, many locations require a minimum length of stay (often 7 nights or longer) to pay fully in cash, and guests staying fewer nights may still be required to present a valid credit/debit card.
* **Deposit Return:** If you leave a cash deposit, any refund of $100 or less is generally returned at check-out upon room inspection, while cash refunds over $100 are often mailed by check within 14 business days.
* **Identification:** You will need to present a valid government-issued photo ID that matches the reservation name.

Because cash acceptance for shorter stays can vary based on front-desk discretion and current management policy, it is strongly recommended to **call the front desk directly at (904) 997-9050** prior to arrival to confirm the exact deposit amount and rules for your specific stay length.


Q: Do I have to pay the full amount upfront at Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr.?
A: Whether you have to pay the full amount upfront depends on the **length of your stay** and the **rate type** you choose:

1. **Short Stays (1 to 6 nights):**
   * **Yes, you pay in full at check-in.** Guests staying on standard nightly rates must pay for the entire stay upon arrival.

2. **Long/Weekly Stays (7 nights or more):**
   * **No, you do not pay for the entire reservation upfront.** You only pay for your **first week** at check-in. Subsequent weeks are then paid in advance on a week-by-week basis.

3. **Advance Purchase (Prepaid / Non-Refundable Rates):**
   * **Yes.** If you choose an "Advance Purchase" deal when booking online (to get a lower rate), the full amount is charged immediately at the time of booking.

### Additional Upfront Costs to Keep in Mind:
* **Incidental Hold / Deposit:** At check-in, the hotel requires a credit/debit card hold (or cash deposit) of up to **$100–$250** for incidentals, which is refunded after check-out if no damages or extra charges occur.
* **Pet Fees:** If you bring a pet, pet fees are also collected in advance (full stay if under 7 nights, or per week for longer stays).


Q: Does Extended Stay America Select Suites - Jacksonville - Southside - St. Johns Towne Ctr. accept debit cards?
A: **Yes, debit cards with a major network logo (Visa or Mastercard) are accepted, with a few important conditions:**

* **Pre-Authorization / Security Deposit:** At check-in, the hotel will place a temporary authorization hold on your debit card. This hold typically covers the full room charges plus an incidental security deposit (usually up to **$250**). 
* **Release Time:** Because funds are held directly from your bank account rather than a credit line, any unused deposit hold typically takes **5 to 14 business days** to return to your account after check-out, depending on your bank's processing policies.
* **Reservation/Short-Stay Policies:** Brand policy standardly requires a major credit card to guarantee or hold the initial online booking, and some short stays (under 7 nights) or check-in desks may strongly prefer or require a traditional credit card at the time of check-in. 

If you plan to use a debit card for both the room rate and the deposit hold, it is recommended to call the property directly at **(904) 998-3330** prior to arrival to verify their exact deposit amount and check-in hold policy.
