Many guests enjoyed the pool, though the hot tub is frequently closed, and some found the breakfast area crowded or items running low during busy mornings. Beds are generally comfortable and rooms can be spacious, but some bathrooms are dated and occasional noise is reported.

Honestly not sure why or how this is even a best western I stay at lots of best western hotels and this is by far the worst at best it’s comparable to an americinn or days inn breakfast was garbage coffee was ice cold old and stale the pool area well the light was dangling outside of the pool the hot tub was not hot and not jetted as advertised it was missing all jets just huge holes in the walls of of that bubbled air out not comfortable or relaxing in a mildly above warm atmosphere the rooms were old and e trembly out dated this isn’t uncommon for a best western however the tv didn’t work the refrigerator wouldn’t get cold the room it’s self had a bit of an odor and the rooms wasn’t up to any sort of standard of cleanliness which is highly u usual for a best western I wouldn’t not stay there ever again and I hope this review makes u change your mind as well the Hampton inn is comparable in price for Oglesby stay there the best western should be avoided

This is a nice, newer facility in a very convenient location for an overnight stay on my way from Florida to Wisconsin. Due to bad weather, I stayed a second night and had a chance to visit the pool area, which is also very nice, although the hot tub was closed. The room, staff, full breakfast were all very pleasing.

The staff were courteous and friendly. Their pool was clean and the water felt like I was swimming in the Caribbean. Just the right temp....not too cold and not too hot. Aple parking, and the rooms used digital cards linked to my room for entry. Their breakfast selections were plentiful and varied. Something to please just about anybody. My KS Bed/Room was very comfortable and I had a 48" HD TV with access to my favorite streaming services. The Free Wifi also made my stay more pleasurable. I'll definitely reserve a KS room again when I am back in town.

This facility is newer and is clean, pleasant and in good repair. The location is excellent for a snowbird headed back to Wisconsin with ample parking for my 22 foot van The only drawback was, while the pool was open, the hot tub was closed. Nice full breakfast.

My family had a wonderful stay at this lovely hotel. The staff are extremely friendly and inviting. The breakfast was delicious with many options daily from fresh eggs to home style waffles. The pool was clean and a place where many guest relaxed after spending time in the nearby parks. Our room was spectacularly clean, the housekeeping definitely takes pride in their work and it shows. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you’re traveling to starved rock or Matthiessen state parks.
