I always (always, always, always) check reviews before reserving a hotel room and this one was much better than I thought it would be, even after reading the good reviews that others had written about it. I had a one-night stopover on a business road trip east (Mpls to Rhode Island) and needed an inexpensive, but good, hotel and this Super 8 didn't disappoint.

The room was 99% spotless, with just one tiny piece of crumpled paper next to the recliner in my room to not have it 100% spotless. The sink area and separate toilet/tub room were both as clean as our home bathrooms are. The bed was excellent, in my opinion, and everything in the room worked perfectly. Super 8 bath towels are notoriously thin but they were fine for my needs. That's why the room prices aren't higher, some things have to be forgiven if a company is going to offer rooms in this price range. The location was excellent and seemed super safe with lots of food choices within a few blocks or so.

The only hallway noise I heard was when some young folks came back to their room around 2:30 a.m. but, luckily, they weren't staying in an adjacent room to mine so once they went inside their room it was silent again. I didn't even look at the breakfast area because I've stayed at Super 8's quite a few times in the past and I don't eat cereal and donuts at all, let alone for breakfast. But, if a person does, this hotel would have had my breakfast needs met as well. I don't automatically expect, and demand, that a hotel supply me with breakfast so I don't judge them by what food they serve their guests. I also didn't check out the pool area so I can't say anything about that.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel and will surely stay there again if / when I'm in the area. It was absolutely perfect for my needs.

Stayed here one night and it was clean, cheap, and well staffed. Rooms were immaculate, including the bathroom! Had a question about the Metra and front desk staff was very helpful. Not closest hotel to the mall or Metra station, but it was in a nice neighborhood. Left too early in the morning so we didn't get to try the breakfast. The pool is REALLY SMALL - more like an oversized hot tub. Great place if you just need a place to crash.

We were In Aurora for a wedding. The room was very clean. The bedding appeared to be brand new. If fact we bought pillows becasue the new motel pillows were too thick. The breakfast was pretty typical - lots of carbs-but there were boiled eggs for protein. The motel was very quiet. We did not use the small pool. The fitness center was a tread mill and striding machine that we didin't knwo how to turn on - though we could have asked, I'm sure.

I have read some terrible reviews on this hotel and I just didn't see it. I almost didn't come in because of them so I thought and thought I should give my 2 cents worth. I travel around 200 nights a year and stay almost exclusively in Super 8's, Days Inn, etc. These are middle range hotels that give you the basics for a decent cost. This Super 8 while not the lap of luxury gave me what I needed to get thru my week. I had a tv with 60 plus channel including the Golf channel. There was a overstuffed chair and footstool. The fridge and microwave worked and the bed was comfortable enough. No mints on the pillow but clean towels in the bathroom. If you want a resort don't come, you need a nice place to sleep its a good deal.
