“Not bad but you get what you pay for”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I have stayed at this hotel many times since it is close to family and its only about an hour from downtown Chicago. Its right next to the 294 highway so going to Chicago is easy. The hotel is adequate-nothing special, Its old and run down. Rooms are very basic but usually clean. Carpets in hallways are dirty but that does not bother me that much. Front desk staff usually courteous.They have a cold continental breakfast. They have two computers that guests can use but one never works and the other may or may not work. They have a restaurant inside. There is also a large banquet hall which is used often. When I was there it was casino night and the place was jammed. Its a good deal for the price but don't expect much.

Room Tip: Rooms for singles are the best value

“Would come back!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

person found this review helpful

I have just stayed there for 3 days in 3 weeks, and the rooms were clean, quiet, and the staff friendly. I stayed on Monday Nights, for Tuesday meetings, and compared to other nearby hotels, this is the place to stay. Competitively priced to Super 8 and Motel 6, this includes breakfast; and for those who are light sleepers.. it's REALLY quiet!!! Yup, it's next to the executive airport, but the planes rarely land after 8p and start before 7a.. I suggest staying in the 150's as it is close to the back door, and it is in the quiet area, so no elevators, or ice machine noise. You will read bad reviews, but I travel alot on cheap deals, so I know what worse is, and this is NOT bad. I think it is great! I don't see how they can complain for the price and value. If people want to spend 3 times the amount at the Hilton, 1 mile away, and get about the same thing, go for it!! I'm on a travel budget...

Room Tip: Stay in the even 150's

“lazy staff”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2011

Aparently only 1 staff member is able to reset their wi-fi router.If the system goes down all must wait for his next shift to regain service.After complaining to the desk clerk daily for 5 days I finally got in touch with a manager and was online for a short time.Since it took me getting a manager on my cell phone, I assume that the desk clerk didn't pass my request on to the manager,hence my review title.The hotel reservation service that my boss uses has graciously blocked this hotel from my account.

“Good place to stay on a budget, friendly service and good location.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011 via mobile

This isn't the best hotel in Chicago, but on a budget its a nice play to stay. Not to far away from the airport or the city. The service was friendly, and with free breakfast you can't complain much. There are lots of things to do in a 5 mile radius. Overall I enjoyed my stay in Chicago.
