What guests think

Reviews of Spark by Hilton Oak Forest describe a stay with friendly staff and budget pricing but frequent issues, including cleanliness problems, maintenance troubles, and facilities like the pool, hot tub, and elevator often closed or not working.

Noise from thin walls is mentioned repeatedly, while some guests found beds comfortable but disliked the small, flat pillows and basic furnishings. Breakfast feedback is mostly negative for limited, low-quality options, though a few guests said it was adequate. Several note construction and difficult access or an uneasy area; others liked proximity to Tinley Park events. Expect a budget stay with significant trade-offs.

Limited options for someone with food allergies, bed was comfortable but room was hastily remodeled. Drywall dust everywhere, bathroom sink p trap not connected, shower curtain rod was moved and had wet drywall mud still in the patches, lock on door was hanging off. No one at desk for 10 minutes upon arriving, had to go ask for towels. Ice machine was broken and the one on the lower level was moldy. Pool was hot, hot tub out of order. For the price it was ok, room was just slapped together and not properly cleaned after construction.

The hotel with a shared parking lot is doing construction. Therefore the parking lot is tore up. First red flag but it was already pd by then. The pics are true but not. I did not visit the pool so idk. It was open tho which is a plus for this time of year. The staff was wonderful and very nice. Staff at the desk at z2a and everything. Thank you. Now the stay… there were patches missing on the walls and a bunch of dlvd boxes in the lobby and hall as if they were doing construction as well even tho they’re not. Maybe soon, idk The sound barrier…. Omg…the rooms on each side of me were loud. One room was arguing at the top of their lungs at 2a. The other side just talks extra extra loud. Sounded like a party at 2a but after dosing off and waking up at 6a, it was just a man and woman couple who’s in there talking loud. Now 8:11a and she hasn’t shut the hell up yet. Check out is noon tho so “if” they ever shut u, others can possibly sleep. I’m prepping to leave. 2 hrs from home. I’m going home to my own quiet. I understand it’s a hotel but at some point there has to be courtesy for the other customers. Ijs

There was no Wi-Fi when we arrived and we could only pay in cash so we had to leave and get $600 some odd dollars in cash to avoid their ridiculous ATM fees. They had our rooms wrong as well. I had my two children with me that were looking forward to swimming, but the pool was actually down the whole four days we were there! And to top it off, the elevator was broke the majority of the time, and we had to take stairs with my two elderly parents! The staff was very rude, and hard to understand with the thick accents that they had. The Night Shift worker was actually sitting in the chair, talking on the phone, picking crud and dead skin from between her toes, and didn’t wash her hands to help us when we needed a new key for our room. I have never experienced anything like this in any hotel in my life and we will absolutely never return to this hotel!

I loved it! Everything was on point except the pillows lol omg they were terrible it was hollow and like it wasn’t anything in them and it flattened immediately and it wasn’t a microwave in the room but that wasn’t too much of in there issue an inconvenience I might add BUT the staff was really nice the hotel and rooms smelled fresh and inviting and the bed was really comfortable. That is my new go to spot when I go home to Chicago for visits but you if they could just get better pillows that would be great

Overall the hotel is great! We stayed there for the night after attending a concert at Tinley Park, so the location is perfect. I’m taking off a star ONLY because the walls are extremely thin. You can hear everything. At 6am I swear there was a soccer game on the floor above us and full conversation maybe next door or in the hall. Balls were bouncing and shaking everything. Other than that, it was a great experience and would definitely stay there if attending another concert!

Husband and I went for a day/night away and for one the access road was difficult to see, as soon as I walked in our room I was about knocked over with a deodorizer that was not pleasant (which I think was probably to cover smoking smells and I requested a non smoking room), neighbors were either really loud or the walls are extremely thin!

Area is very unsafe, guests next door are blasting music and screaming early in the morning, and banging doors which means neighbourhood is not safe and walls are thin. Hotel and rooms are not well maintained, the bathroom door doesn’t close properly unless you slam the door, the shower makes a squeaky noice when turning to hot water, and the handle is properly screwed. Found a hair in one of the “clean” towels. Overall, not a safe area nor a well maintained building.

I don't even know where to start... this location is in a bad part of town, and the lot is a mess. Incredibly hard to park and back out of a space. Going into the hotel, I got into my room and there were stains everywhere. The wall, the shower, the mirror had splatters of something on it, the floor looked so beat up, the outlet hardly worked next to bed, the shower was filthy (the curtain was dirty old and grimey, and the shelves were never cleaned). The shower pull knob barely worked, and hot water did not last more than 10 minutes. The window was wide open when I walked in, and I was surprised to not see any bird droppings in the room. Not pleased at all and would like some sort of refund or reimbursement. Will not come here again. Felt so unsafe and disgusted. Also, I booked this hotel because they had breakfast in the mornings, but all they had for breakfast was slices of square bread in a open pan with a tub of singular packets of butter next to it. Had 2 off brand bowls of cereal, but looked like it was in there for awhile. 0/10.

I asked if they will refill the breakfast and the girl said yes but no one showed up while we waited so we ended up going elsewhere for breakfast. Pretty inconvenient since we booked trying to save in breakfast. The carpet and bathroom dirty and dingy especially for the price paid for the room. The furniture disgustingly old.
