I liked the price. The room was adequate. There were no amenities, not even a plastic drinking cup to take my pills. Bed was comfortable.

2/10 Poor

This place was a complete sxit hole ! The room was dirty and had one light at the entrance as well as it took them 8 hours to make the decision with several callls and a final prompting from the maintenance man to move me .. the tv didn’t work at all and the desk staff was non existent. It’s a computer screen you talk to someone who isn’t even in Illinois… the surrounding area was sketchy as c well seeing what appeared to be drug transactions in the parking lot .. there were cars that came and left without getting out of their vehicles .. I was so disappointed I left without being able to get a refund on my last two days and rented a room at the Holiday Inn

4/10 Fair

Smoke detectors were chirping throughout the hotel. There were no front desk employees only a kiosk. I was afraid to leave my room because another guest was locked out of their room because their key didn’t work and the kiosk couldn’t give them a new one. I would never stay here again.

Food options are very limited, I think this can improve. Personnel is very polite, I like this so much.

10/10 Exceptional

What stands out most about this comfortable place to rest is the attention of the staff. The lady who works there offers the best service and is very receptive and attentive, and this is one of the things that is sometimes more important than everything else.
Ronny, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cheap place to stay but beware….

You could tell this building used to be something else cause it is definitely aged and not in a cute charming kind of way. They have tried their best to make it look historical. I saw signs for guest laundry and fitness center but they didn’t actually exist. My room was next door to the bar that is I didn’t hear anything coming from in the bar but those walls are so thin you can hear people talking in the lobby and out side. Oh and the continental breakfast is literally toast and cereal.
Jerry, 1-night trip

If all you are looking for is a cheap place to sleep for the night, this can work. Otherwise, it's garbage. It's a dirty and beat up facility. TV didn't work, lights were out. Also, don't let the free continental breakfast fool you. It was the absolute bare minimum. In fact, they had open gallons of milk and Sunny D in the small refrigerator. Seemed pretty darn unsanitary to me. I didn't touch it.
