WoodSpring Suites: Redefining Economy Extended Stay Hospitality

WoodSpring Suites has established itself as a leading force in the economy extended-stay segment, offering a unique blend of affordability, comfort, and practicality for guests needing accommodations for a night, a week, a month, or longer . Originally founded as Value Place in 2003 by Jack DeBoer—a pioneer of the extended-stay concept who also founded Residence Inn and Candlewood Suites—the brand was rebranded as WoodSpring Suites in 2015 to better reflect its commitment to guest comfort and value . Today, it operates as a subsidiary of Choice Hotels International, with a growing portfolio of hundreds of locations across the United States.

The brand's core philosophy, often called "The WoodSpring Way," is centered on providing a straightforward, stress-free experience focused on the amenities that matter most to longer-stay guests . Every suite is smartly designed and features a fully equipped in-room kitchen, complete with a full-sized refrigerator, microwave, and two-burner cooktop, allowing guests to prepare their own meals and save money . This focus on essential home-like comforts extends to complimentary basic Wi-Fi, on-site laundry facilities available 24/7, and pet-friendly accommodations at many locations . By offering flexible weekly and monthly rates that lower the cost per night the longer one stays, WoodSpring Suites provides an accessible solution for business travelers, families, students, and those in transition.

This dedication to value and guest satisfaction has not gone unnoticed. WoodSpring Suites has been ranked the #1 economy extended stay brand in the J.D. Power North America Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index Study for four consecutive years (2022-2025) , excelling in areas such as guest room, facility, and value for price . As the brand continues to expand under Choice Hotels, it remains focused on delivering a simple, award-winning experience that makes guests feel at home, no matter how long they stay.
