Not sure if it's undergoing changes, but the property has a lot of issues: no working vending or ice machines, pool has been closed because it's unsafe, shortage of soap or toiletries at the front desk, littered parking lot. The staff helped to the best of their ability but hopefully, these issues get fixed soon.

This property is absolutely disgusting. There was pubic hair all over the shower, dirty yellow half folder towels, no AC, the pool was condemned, stains on the couch and bedding, there was marijuana smoke in the building, the front desk refused to refund our stay even after we showed them the issues. I was still charged. We did not even stay,we left and went to a different hotel. We had 5 children with and we were not staying there. There was also some tweaker guy who kept knocking on the hotel door when my husband and I were down in the lobby trying to deal with the issues. My children were terrified and sobbing. Absolutely DO NOT STAY THERE.

The property is creepy. The hallways have multiple odors and you can’t get in one of the side doors w a key card. Further more my room shower didn’t work at all and honestly even if it did I didn’t want to use the shower because it was disgusting. I tried to tell the front desk but when the lady came to my room she told me there was nothing she could do about it and didn’t get me a new room or reimburse me any money from my stay. Nor did they offer at least a free night at another location! I would not recommend to anyone ever! Please never stay here I’d trust red roof before this place

I searched for cheapest near Chicago, so this is my fault. Almost no staff spoke English, first room my key didn’t work, second room AC didn’t work, third room AC barely worked, no vending machines work, laundry doesn’t work, no breakfast no coffee. Next time I’ll pay the extra $20 and stay at an American owned place

I loved the high ceilings in our room. However, our key card kept messing up and they were blaming us for it. There are no elevators so that was a little inconvenient. Also, all laundry was out of order as well as the ice machine on my floor.

Sink sites outside the bathroom next to the entry door. Iron but no ironing board. Towels had hair in them. Blow dryer attached ton the wall by the sink with no electrical plug to use it. I couldn’t pay with the Hotels gift card, had to put a cash deposit. And they advertise breakfast but definitely don’t have it and posted that they don’t serve breakfast.

The pictures on Expedia of this property are very deceiving. The property is filthy, not maintained at all, everything here is broken and out of order. The linen is dirty had to go buy my own, the refrigerator doesn’t cool enough, toilet had urine stains on the seat the tub had public hair in it. Shame on Expedia for even offering this property. Definitely not worth what I paid at the very minimum it’s worth $40. The house keepers are senior citizens and I was not able to check in at 3:00pm but rather 45 minutes late which made me late to the event I was here for. Also our room had an abundant amount of fruit flies. If I was able to give no stars I would have.

Door barely locked, urine smell in room, bugs on sink and food crumbs on dresser. Weed smell everywhere, and scary residents opening doors, looking around in the hallway and then retreating back into their room. Desk clerk spoke 0.01% English. They take a cash deposit and make you wait to get it back while they go check your room.

Very poorly maintained. Do not be fooled by the images of the hotel online. The hotel is pretty bad. Please do not even think of staying here. Avoid at all costs. Smells like a den of cigars lit. This has to be completely revamped or shut down.

Honestly, for the price I can’t complain but it did smell like cigarettes. The bathroom wasn’t the cleanest and there wasn’t very much light in the room except for like 3 lamps. A $60 deposit was asked for when we arrived which we were not made aware of but we got our money back so again, can’t complain. Overall, there is definitely better out there.

I walked into the lobby and immediately noticed that one of the hotel guests was smoking indoors. The check-in process was confusing, as they required me to provide $60 in cash for the incidental hold. I did not have the cash on me, so I had to go to an ATM, which had a high fee. In the moment, I did not feel confident I would even receive the cash back upon check-out (I did, no problem). When I finally got into my room, I felt a bit better, as the bed and sheets seemed clean. The room was generally OK, except for the bathroom. The sink and counter area was dirty. The toilet also did not look like it had been cleaned in a while. The shower was scary. I didn’t really use the bathroom at all, and decided to shower at a nearby gym the next morning instead. Overall, my stay was generally pretty unpleasant, but you get what you pay for. Next time I would stay at a different hotel and pay 20 or $30 more per night. It’s simply not worth the money to stay here, when significantly better options are available for just a little bit more. Avoid this place.
