“No room at the Inn”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I booked 4 rooms approx 5months prior to our visit. After a long journey from the UK we arrived just after lunch to find they had relet our rooms. They new well beforehand they had done this (long let) but did not let me know. Rockford was booked up except for a place they advised us of which was the pits! My niece (who thankfully lives in Rockford) after hours on the telephone (try getting 4 rooms) finally found us a place The Best Western South Beloit, who came up trumps. They went out of their way to accommodate us all!! Unfortunately the extra expense incurred limited our spending! The girl at Days Inn, no manager available, was unfeeling and unconcerned. Our compensation 33dollars per room. Just wondered how they would feel if their grandparents were treated the same!

Room Tip: Don't even go there!

27 November 2011
We always strive to make sure overbookings do not occur, but unfortunetely, we do have guests that are in house that do extend at the last moment. Our standard policy has always been first off to apologize, and then at our expense find a comparable hotel close to us to provide a FREE night for each room that we did not have available.We apologize that you did not feel our competition was not up to our standards, and this is a big reason we strive and succeed at being the best value under the sun and in Rockford.

“Stayed here 2 years in a row for BMX Nationals. Great price, great staff.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed her two years in a row when we visited Rockford for the ABA BMX Nationals. It is extremely affordable and the staff was wonderful and accommodating. The rooms were clean. Free breakfast was nice, included waffles, fresh fruit and a variety of pastries,fruit juices, teas and coffee. Standard fare for a continental breakfast. We ate at the Tilted Kilt across the street (I didn't realize it was a Scottish Hooters!). Food was decent, mid-upper price range. We will stay here again for our next trip to Rockford!

“Never had an experience like this before at a motel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

I made reservations at this motel after seeing an ad on craiglist advertising $210/wk from the manager Michael.I had made the reservation and got a confirmation and the person I made the reservation with(stacy).I had gave my credit card information to hold the room with my long term desires per the ad running on craiglist.
I had drove many hours to arrive late and tired wanting to relax after having made the reservation with room type,etc.I was met by Leanne on the desk and informed after some wishy washy runaround that there was a problem with my room/reservation in that my card info didn't go through(wasn't valid)and the room wasn't available but housekeeping could get another room cleaned.This was late and I know housekeeping wasn't onsite.I know there wasn't any money problems with my card/account having the funds either.She said/tried running the card again and shazam the card went through.After letting my frustrations become evident and tired and frustrated I was able to get a room as requested.The rooms aren't as per the pictures 100% accurate and the fitness room was made from one of the motel rooms with laundry to the side and the equipment didn't work adequately with only one treadmill and one cycle machine and a tv that sit on a table on the floor.The room was clean and one side of the room was a brick wall for some unknown reason.It's obvious this is an old motel with upgrades through the years but not reflective of the pictures in advertisement.
I don't know what exactly is going on with reservations and availability but I know personally other cohorts had similar and actually got kicked out of the motel.The police was present the first night checking in with two squad cars in the back corner and saw them periodically during my stay.

Room Tip: Bottome floors are non-smoking although there are pets.

“This Place Sucks”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

person found this review helpful

While working in Byron NGP they locked my friends out their rooms unless they signed another rental agreement 12 days after they checked in. The owner insisted the maid clean the room during the day when they where trying to sleep. The Manager is a Jerk. Stay at the Best Western across the street.

Room Tip: Don't stay here

Apparently their confirmation codes are not worth the paper you print them on. There was a soccer touney in town and all the hotels in a 30 mile radius were booked. We ended up staying at a Holiday Inn Express in Rochelle.
