Safety and Comfort...Uncompromised!
Posted by sstegmaier on March 25, 2008 at 3:43 PM
Hello, I'm Bob Creech and I want to introduce myself to our current and potential guests! I have joined the Value Place team as Senior Vice President of Safety and Security Innovations.
I will spend a lot of my time at Value Place properties, but am based at our headquarters in Wichita, Kansas. My family and I are making preparations for settling into our new community. Like many of our Value Place guests, I understand how stressful relocation can be!
I have always been interested in public safety. During my career I've served as Emergency Medical Technician, Deputy Sheriff, Patrol Sergeant and had the privilege of being elected and serving as Sheriff of Cherokee County for 6 years. Prior to joining Value Place I was the Director of Public Safety for Avila University in Kansas City, Missouri. I have graduated from the Kansas and Missouri Law Enforcement academies and have a Masters Degree in Organizational Development.
As a current or potential guest you should know that Value Place has a program called SAFE Community Partnerships. This program encourages our Area Managers, Property Managers and franchisees to create a relationship with local police departments. Wow! As a former Sheriff I can assure you that those relationships make a powerful statement about Value Place's commitment to comfort and safety in the communities where we do business.
I am lucky to have joined a company that has always considered our guest's comfort and safety as a top priority, and I am looking forward to implementing innovative solutions to build on that tradition.
Nice to meet you...I just may see you soon!
Bob Creech, Senior Vice President of Safety and Security Innovations
Carrie, we are sorry this is an inconvenience to you. One of the ways that Value Place can pass on remarkably affordable weekly rates is by trimming operation costs and unwanted services and ammenities. Our research has shown us that our guests appreciate Value Place trimming costs to help save them money, especially in difficult economic times.
Posted by: Shay StegmaierWhen we're being charged a full week's stay and the hotel is closed on the day that we fly into town, that is a major inconvenience.

I've never heard of hotels/extended-stay hotels being closed on any day of the week.
We shouldn't have to book flights based on whether a hotel is open or not.
Hi Leslie,
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We value input from our guests and appreciate information we receive about any aspects of the guest experience. We will contact the area manager for Fort Worth so he is aware of the situation and can follow up.
