“Clean and very friendly place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 March 2011

I have been traveling to Chicago area for two years and this hotel has been the most welcoming and responsive to my needs. The staff is warm, friendly and goes out of their way to make you feel right at home. The rooms are great, not too large but clean and tidy. I am an extremely light sleeper. I always ask for a room away from the highway, ice machine and elevator. The staff is always very accommodating. I love complimentary continental breakfast at this hotel, especially hot breakfast sandwiches and delicious Belgian self-serve waffles. I would definately recommend this hotel.

“service was terrible......”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2011

I made this hotel reservation through CheapoAir. I paid for two rooms, for two nights. I called to ask for a microwave and small fridge in one of the rooms, and if I can to have the two rooms next to each other because I have young children. When I checked into the hotel, I was told by the person checking my family in, that one of the room was canceled by Expedia. I said I did not book them through Expedia. I had to call CheapOair and was on hold for 15 minutes before I can talk to someone. In the meantime, I asked the desk person to look at my confirmation papers because the confirmation information was all printed on it. I was told, it was unnecessary and they don't need to look at them. Afterwards, it was't canceled. There were two rooms reserved as I had them. I was also told that they will not accomodate my request for a microwave and small fridge because the rooms I have reserved were too "cheap" and I had to reserve a more expensive room to get a microwave or fridge. I should complain because the hotel have specified that all guests have to be satisfied while staying at their hotels. I certainly was not happy because the service was terrible. The hotel was also next to a major freeway and it was terribly noisy all time of day or night. And if your room happens to be facing the freeway, as ours did, the headlights of the cars speeding by hitting you in the eyes constantly if your shades are not drawn. It was bad. I would never subject my family to stay at a place that treats their guests this way.

I am sorry that you did not feel that the service was acceptable. After speaking with the person working when you checked in, I found out that when you checked in you gave your name and stated that you had two rooms. One room under your name had been cancelled the same day it was booked thorugh the website you used to book your rooms. Another reservation had been made under a different name, but that name wasn't immediately provided to us. Once this confusion was brought to light, we did check you in and had your rooms side by side as you requested. We also do offer rooms with a microwave and refrigerator, but those rooms cost $10.00 more per night. You booked the least expensive room available and not the room that included the microwave and refrigerator.

“This is the worst Marriott I've ever stayed in”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 February 2011

The rooms are out dated, the staff is rude. I've spent 120+ nights staying in Marriott's all over the US. I needed a last minute place to stay for one night in the area and this was all I could find. I usually don't stay at Fairfield's, but I have and they're fine. I felt like I was sleeping in a highway motel. I was surprised I couldn't make the bed vibrate. It smelled. The furniture and bedding was disgusting. The staff didn't care. I ended up leaving the hotel at midnight because I couldn't stomach the idea of sleeping there it was so bad. I had to work with Marriott Corporate Office's to get my money refunded. I am SHOCKED this is allowed to carry the Marriott brand. It is seriously awful. There are so many other options out there for this to be a viable option. AVOID AVOID AVOID

We have been dealing with this unreasonable guest who has a history with Marriott of using points for free night stays He then contacts management companies untruthfully saying that he tried to contact the manager but the manager didn't respond. We reported this guest to Marriott and now he decides to write a slandarous review on Tripadvisor.

My husband and I always stay at this hotel. Rooms are not huge, but nice, very clean and well appointed. Hotel staff is wonderful, always in a good mood and eager to help. Hotel is located 5 minutes from the train station. We are always pleased with our stays in Glenview.

“Nice place except for the NOISE!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2010

We wanted to visit Chicago without paying high city rates. This place is very nice - 3 miles from the METRA station to get into the city. Nice in every way except that it's right near the interstate I-294 - less than 50 yards away - so the noise from cars & trucks is a big negative.
