What guests think

At Super 8 by Wyndham Crystal Lake, reviews highlight a convenient location and friendly front-desk interactions, but recurring concerns about smoke odors, dated rooms, cleanliness lapses, and disruptive noise leave many guests with a mixed or negative impression.

Breakfast is consistently described as very limited—often just cereal, bananas, and coffee—with occasional complaints about availability and cleanliness. Multiple reviews note aging facilities, maintenance problems, and security concerns such as broken or unlocked exterior doors. Some guests mentioned fair value for the price on short stays. Expect a basic budget stop with trade-offs in comfort and upkeep.

This property has an odor of stale cigarettes in the lobby, and this wafts up to the rooms upstairs. Also, I can see where the property has attempted to update the property, yet these updates are poorly done, or worn out. This seems to be a common theme of the Super 8 brand, as I experienced similar in a town south of here as well.

The big flat screen TV didn't work so they moved me to another room. The new rooms tb was half the size of the first one, but it worked. I got a room with a single bed so I would have a comfortable chair to sit on. The chair in the new room was dirty, ripped and falling apart. I was on the 2nd floor yet, there was a big cricket in residence. Parking by the front door was full, parked around back to find the back door broken. Since anyone could walk through this door from the outside I did not feel safe staying there. The overall look of the place is worn down and in need of updating. The cosmetics of a hotel can be overlooked as long as it's clean and safe. This place was neither. I would never recommend this place or stay there again.

The room was not ready when we got there for early check-in, even though we called ahead. The room was not clean and conditions were very worn. Worst of all, the heater in the room made a terrible knocking noise all night. The staff was nice and it was great to be able to bring our dog at only $20.

What I did not like. It was a very cold, clear, beautiful night. Power went out for 3-4 hours and kids now have the FLU because of the loss of power/heat that night. NO consideration for my kids. NO partial compensation for the night of inconvenience . I expected more from the name of Wyndham. No back up generators. They had this was an at of GOD. If the building was struct by lightning that is act of good. Holiday Inn has generators.

The property is old and worn. The walls in the bathroom were desperate for fresh paint. The bed was comfortable but the smoke detector blinked a bright light all night. The sheets smelled strongly of laundry detergent, almost like they had not been rinsed properly, making it difficult to sleep. The breakfast consisted of two types of cereal, bananas, and coffee.

I thought Illinois was a no smoking indoors, public placing. Tbey had smoking rooms here which i unknowingly booked. Had to switch rooms and ended up with a crappy small room. Window broke being "locked" shut with a stick. Pillows are about as thick as a klenex. No closet for hanging anything. The bathroom sink height was made for toddler. The paper thin walls and hearing every noise/creak made when the people upstairs move. Do not stay here. I paid way too much money for this room.

Regarding Super 8 Crystal Lake, IL reservation # 72619447774292 on 7/29/23 Nowadays reservations are made through companies like EXPEDIA, so it is not on the motel when theres an issue. They could care a less! We stay in motels frequently for pleasure and this was by far the WORST MATTRESS WE HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. We didn't choose the $66 motel, rather at $133 per night one would expect a good bed. We want to be refunded our $133 immediately.

Nothing unique. I’m not sure about how well it’s cleaned since the shower didn’t work! Had to try and wash hair in the sink- My wife wasn’t able to shower either or try to was hair in the sink since there was only 1 shampoo packet. There was 3 bars of soap but if the shower wasn’t working I imagine I’m not the only one who couldn’t shower. I will let the staff know when I check out. I hope I will get something if a rebate but I’m not counting on it.
