Wonderful front desk service, but the hotel itself was very unkept. Floors in the room were cracked & lifted, bathroom full of mold, paint peeling from walls and strange stains on bathroom door.

Our stay at Best Western was good. The amenities at the hotel are actually very accommodating. This stay has a gym, a pool, and breakfast in the morning. The front desk staff were very helpful. Prior to check in they allowed us to leave our bags up front until room was ready. They also got us checked in early as well. The room was very large and was decorated very tastefully. I liked the incorporation of the northern Illinois landmarks into the wall art. The room was also very clean too. There were a couple items that had shown a little age, but it was nothing other than a little wear and tear. The lighting in the hallways appeared to be a little dim as well but it didn't affect the stay at all. This hotel is placed right near several dining and shopping centers which is kinda of an added bonus if you like shopping. We would definitely stay here again in the future

Property was clean the staff was nice. The elevator needs service and also needed to be mopped and the floor in my room had dips and made noise when you walked. Sound like the floor was going to cave in. But it was a clean room and staff was nice.

Our room appeared to be in the middle of renovation as there were a lot of unrepaired drywall areas and water stains on the drywall. The ceiling exhaust fan was filthy as was the HVAC unit in the room as it could not adequately dehumidify the roof and blew black moldy dust into the room. The housekeeping staff storage and laundry adjacent to our room and they were very loud very early in the morning. Would not stay there again

Average

Not awful, but not wonderful. Cool shower in the morning for some reason. Coffee in room not replenished. Great king sized bed and excellent air con. Blind didn’t work but as the view was of the car park this didnt matter! No safe. Breakfast was a pretty standard Motel DIY affair.

As the week end went on the elevator would sound like it needed oiled or maintenance on done on it. Wasn't real comfortable getting on it but wasn't able to carry luggage up steps. The staff was friendly. Upon checking in and getting to room, we discovered there was no information as to restaurants to order in. We were told "we aren't allowed to put that information out". The same with TV channels, the people at the desk were helpful in giving suggestions for restaurants, and she did give us brochures with information. The television reception was ridiculous, we had to watch in between the internet trying to connect. We also heard other people comment on the same thing. The toilet stool would actually rock if you weren't careful and the toilet paper dispenser would fall out of the wall. The chairs that were in the room to set in was crammed back in the corner and worn out. For the price we paid, we expected better.

No TV. They said a bird flew into their dish. Also the flooring in the rooms had lifted spots. The beds and pillows were very nice.
