Motel 6-Glenview, IL - Chicago North

by no means fancy but was a perfect place for a one night stay, little run down and stairs door didn’t actually close but still felt safe. really quick check in and out and worked out for having a place to sleep

The room was spotless and the desk clerk was exceptionally polite. Parking was convenient. The only thing missing is an in-room refrigerator, but that's why I have a cooler.

Accommodating staff , excellent service. Hotel itself needs attention. Both ice machines out of order, motel 6 sign at the main entrance out of order .

I did not like the fact that the keyed entry to the outside door was broken so the only security we had was our room door. I also didn’t like the fact there was not a coffee maker in the room so when I left early I was unable to get coffee.

Both doors that go to the rooms have a place where you can insert your key card to get in, but you don’t even need to do that because they are unlocked. To me, this is kind of unsafe. It seems that this motel caters to homeless people and migrants. There’s no problem with that in general. It’s just not what I was expecting.

Ice machine didn’t work. No elevator. Too many flies in room

The service was excellent. The place itself was subpar. The doors to get to the rooms were broken so anyone could walk in. The door to the room itself was broken. If I didn’t pull it shut it stayed open. It was off its hinges so it never closed properly without help. It was noisy from the other guests and the freeway. The hallways smelled questionable. The room itself was clean and nice. Comfortable enough. Just couldn’t feel safe enough with the broken doors.

Ants everywhere. Sat my bags down, went to sleep, woke up to ants all over my belongings. Ice machine doesn't work so I had to beg for more than one bag at the desk.

This motel was located next to a major highway. Traffic noise all night. There was no elevator. The staff was very polite. The room was clean and comfortable.

Clean, polite staff, pet friendly

I whent to sleep and the next morning there was a ants on the floors..

You pay for what you get. This motel is the olfactory equivalent to the subway. Every room, hallway, and staircase in the hallway smelled bad in a different way. The smell of smoke was inescapable. Our initial room smelled worse than the hallway, after we asked for a new one, we got one that smelled bad, but less bad than the hallway. By the end of our two night stay, my clothes all began to smell like smoke.

Room smelled of marijuana. Bathroom was filthy. It was just awful. Please do something about the management. I had to leave after one night of a planned four night stay. I couldn't stand staying there.

This hotel is quiet and conveniently located, but the smell of cigars is overwhelming when you enter the hotel. They clean it well, but the inside smells like an unpleasant odor mixed with the smell of cigars and the chemical smell from the cleaning products. People who are sensitive to smells will probably not go there again.

Smelled like animals and the room had roaches

The staff was friendly and the room was clean enough. However, there was a weird smell that was impossible to ignore. Even with the AC turned on, the smell was strong enough to notice.

Not clean sheets were stained and dirty bathroom towel had hair and just not clean me and my daughter and granddaughter left same night

It wasn’t that clean and had a very bad smell to it

the room was full of roaches all over , I stay in this hotel previously and I never have that problem .

Mixed Experience – Excellent Staff, But Cleanliness Needs Work I had a mixed experience during my stay. The first room I was given was not clean, but the staff handled the situation exceptionally well and moved me to another room right away. The second room was better, but cleanliness was still lacking overall. I would strongly advise avoiding the first floor—it had a strong smell of mildew, vomit, and urine, which was very off-putting. Unfortunately, I ended up checking out early and didn’t stay for the second night. That said, the highlight of the hotel is definitely the staff. Every person I interacted with was friendly, professional, and eager to help. Their customer service was truly excellent and made an otherwise disappointing stay more bearable.

I didn't like how the hot water kept shutting off during our stay one day started out hot and somewhat perfect the next day it will be luk warm and instantly ice cold

No hot water in the bathroom.

Air conditioning not working properly

The location and price was nice for what you get but the walls are paper thin and you can hear literally everything. So good luck trying to relax or get any sleep because it felt like people were right inside my room at all hours of the day.

There was no hot water when I got there. I was too tired and just went to sleep and when I was getting up to leave still not hot water. I did let the receptionist know the issue. I had to let the water run for 45 minutes in order for me to get hot water. I should get a free stay or something since I go constantly there to get to my work in another state.

First room 262, second room 268. First room kinda weird idk what it was but that door was the only door that had a silver plate wrapped around from inside the room to outside of the room next to the lock. No other doors had that so that seemed sketchy. The room was a complete dungeon from wifi, with multiple devices. It only worked if I was outside of the room or hotel. the AC was really weak but I thought it was just me at first and the bed was hard as a rock. Eventually I switched rooms. As soon as I opened the door it REAKED of chemicals but I thought nothing of it and didn't want to bother the person down stairs to switch again. At least the AC was stronger than the first room though. wifi is kinda better here. At least my phone was able to find it but wouldn't connect for very long or it seemed to kinda work when I'm next to the windows or out of my room. The bed was softer than the first room, or at least it sinks more when I sit down. The next morning was... Interesting, while getting ready for work there were a few bugs in the bathroom that I had to kill and then the smell from the chemicals clicked, it seems the bugs in the room weren't fully exterminated. And just spent a few hours prepping at home to deal with bed bugs. Had to throw out left over food. I do recommend replacing the remote in room 268, half of the buttons worked on it, the shower head was also cracked and spraying everywhere. Any door that needed a key, also needed to be shoulder checked to open them

The location is good, the hotel is very clean. The front desk is very nice and polite! There’re two issues: WiFi is good in the lobby office but no access in our rooms; also the room wall noise insulation is not good, can hear next door or upstairs talks and walks. But our 4 night stay, we mainly used it for sleeps in the late night. Hope Motel 6 can improve the WiFi coverage in the near future.

Everything was fine. Wifi did not work properly the first two nights. Otherwise everything else was good.

I had horrible experience with this motel. I am not recommending anyone to stay there.   We stayed for 2 nights and we didn’t get much sleep due to the disturbing experience and didn’t get what we paid for.  From the motel entrance to the hallway, it is very smelly, smelling like an unclean restroom with human waste. Our room has a door connected to another room, and the thin door is not soundproof.  The 1st night, the adjacent room played loud TV till 1am, and then we were woken up by loud TV again at 4am.  We only got 3 hours of sleep.  I called the front desk, they called that room as we can hear everything super clearly.  Then the couple in the room turned the volume down, but still talked loudly.  Before we went out in the morning, we heard they had sex.  I had my kid with me in the room, we were so disturbed, we ran outside. On the 2nd night, we went back around 11pm, it was quiet, so we thought the couple next door was checked out.  I checked online the motel was fully booked, no room was available, so we stayed put.  Unfortunately, we were woken up by screaming, shouting, and cursing at 5am.  The couple in room was fighting, and seemed like sweeping something in the room.  I was so tired and waited for them to stop.  But the quarreling continued, I had to check out early, since I almost threw up and was deeply bothered by their disgusting curse. I reported it to the front desk and asked for a refund. They declined and blamed us not to switch room earlier.

My fault I had wrong ending date on my stay. They then put me in a non-tv room for last night which was ok. But then it was hot. Temp on cooler said 66 but heck it was really 66? I'd been turning it up to a more comfortable 73 as I had maintained in my other room a few doors away. You couldn't manipulate the a/c to get it to a good temp so I slept on top of bedding. The shower was walk in, even with bathroom floor but it was plugged which I didn't notice at first. In the 8 minutes I was in there with showerhead pointing toward wall, I washed hair & such & noticed water was above my toes so I moved and it was still that way and filtered out to other part of bathroom. I used my towel, when done, to help absorb water & then wrung out, and put it back down on bathroom floor. I reported the plug up to front manager going off shift the next a.m. before I left.

The front desk staff are amazing. I only wish that all rooms had a frig

Excellent long term (1 week) stay. Zainab and Mohammed made the experience amazing with their professionalism. Highly recommend.

The staff is always friendly, front desk and house keepers. It's quiet so you'll be able to get your rest

Very good service 👍

Muhammad was perfect at check in nice and respectful made everything smooth !

I really like this Motel 6 it’s updated and the rooms are a little smaller but their beds are very comfortable and not sitting on the floor. The ladies at the front desk is welcoming and asking if it’s anything you need let them know. The washing and dryer works.

I booked a king size bed. I'm 6'8". When I went up to the room I could tell immediately it wasn't a king. I went back down to the front desk. The lady at the desk shrugged her shoulders at me and told me they don't have any King beds in the building. When I spoke to a manager the next day. She was nasty and rude. Told me they have a disclaimer on the website saying they don't have any kings. I asked her if she could show me where it was. She couldn't!! No elevator to the second floor. Just a flight of stairs. The door at the top is supposed to be locked and only accessible by key. But it's broken. Very unsafe!! There are no microwaves in the room or any for you to use in the whole hotel. Beds only have 2 very flat pillows. The toilet seat in the bathroom had no lid. Very odd. Room keys repeatedly stop working. Up and down the stairs all weekend!!This has to be the worse hotel in whole area.DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

The frontdesk agent Alex was a joy and was so sweet and respectful. She answered all our questions and made sure our stay was the absolute best it could be and more!

When I arrived, and when I checked-out, the staff were a little rude and short with me- like I did something wrong.

Clean room and bathroom. Excellent staff.

Good location, quiet place

The hotel was okay. It was clean enough and well located for a morning flight at O'Hare. It just has an unfortunate smell. I think it was mop water and paint, maybe. But it wasn't pleasant. An air freshener would go a long way.

A reasonably priced choice for a one night stay. Nice staff, small but clean room. Several good walkable dining options and a crosswalk about 0.2 miles if you want to cross the major road to reach dining. This was important since we were car less this trip

Very convenient

Good easy to access location off the highway. Clean and reasonable price. Nothing fancy, did the job well for a quick overnight spot while traveling through. Our stay was after departure from EAA heading home.

Accessible to restaurants, gasoline station and places we wanted to go to. Location wise was fantastic. Our room was a bit turned off, it was newly painted room and the paint smell stuck to the room, so we had to leave the window open even at night while asleep. Room was Too small for a 2 full beds. No refrigerator and microwave. No hair dryer.

This property is in a very good area where there are plenty of restaurants.

Cheap and kinda good easy to walk around to eat and shopping

Great location

The Bed was NOT comfy. There were stains everywhere. There was no breakfast but we knew that booking the hotel. People tried getting into our room in the middle of the night but since the door was bolted and they did not have the right key card they were unsuccessful. NOT RECOMMENDING TO ANYONE

I think motel 6 everywhere in general should have some kind of breakfast.

My stay here is always nice. The staff are always friendly and courteous. The parking isn't bad. Restaurants are very close by. Shopping is about 15-30 minutes away depending on where you like to shop. My only complaint every time would be the internet connection. I guess depending on which section of the hotel you're at, the WiFi is strong and in other sections, the WiFi is spotty and weak.

It's nice and quiet. Restaurants are in few mins walking distance. Staff is always so very helpful including the house keeping.

Bed is comfortable, only has coffee 24hrs.

We loved the fresh coffee that was always available as well as the kind desk clerks. The rooms were nice and clean. We were happy with the value.

I loved the location since there were so many options to eat out and even relax. The staff were super friendly. 👌
