1. We found a bedbug scurrying across the bathroom floor. Upon killing it, found it was full of blood. It had been feeding.
2. The couch and top sheet in the room smelled of cigarettes.
3. The entire hotel, lobby and hallways, smelled musty and kind of gross.
4. The sheets didn't fully cover the bed, we could see the unsightly box spring.
5. There's a good amount of bird poop on the outside of the window.
6. Breakfast is skimpy -- no donuts.
7. A damaged piece of carpeting in the hallway outside our room was repaired, but poorly.
8. The blankets were thin and scratchy.
9. They couldn't program our door key properly. Coming back to the room on the second day of our stay, we found the key didn't work in the door. I had to go back to the clerk and ask him to reprogram it so we could get back in.
10. Internet access, though free, is slow.
11. No complimentary shampoo, and our room was missing its "Do not disturb" sign.
I've been in Super 8s before, and I've usually been satisfied. This was definitely not one of those experiences. This hotel was disturbing in its overall dinginess. I would not recommend it for any stay in Joliet.
