We were there for our grand-daughter's birthday. Location suited us. Pity that the waffle-maker never seems to be used. Whole-wheat bread would also be a nice addition.

Better in the past
Another last minute single night stay.. Having stayed here many times in the preceding years, I was disappointed to find the condition of the property had diminished. The phone in my room didn't work; apparently they've disabled in-room phone service completely, so no wake up calls. However, as they've removed all the instructions to use the phone, I couldn't turn off the flashing red light that indicated a waiting voice message. Worse yet, they removed the clock radio, which used to be a standard feature. I would have used that for a back-up alarm. Not all the lights in the room worked. There were only 3 hangars in the room to hang up my clothes for the overnight stay. on top of all that, the refrigerator in the room had a broken door which wouldn't close completely. Therefore it ran constantly (for who knows how long) and made weird noises that kept me awake. I finally had to unplug the refrigerator so I could get to sleep, as I had to leave around 4:30 am. Not what I expected.

Not what it used to be.
Having stayed here many times in the preceding years, I was disappointed to find the condition of the property had diminished. The phone in my room didn't work at all; apparently they've disabled in-room phone service completely, so no wake up calls. Worse yet, the clock radio, which I would have used for a back-up alarm, didn't work either. Not all the lights in the room worked. There were only 3 hangars in the room to hang up my clothes for the overnight stay. Eggs have disappeared from the included breakfast.

Iffy
The rooms do not look like what the pictures show on hotel.com. There are no dressers in the room and the bedding needs desperate attention. No mattress cover and covers are worn and as holes
One night stand  small table with 2 chairs. The bedding is very worn
This is what you have for your clothes.

Rooms are dated, but some have been modernized. Breakfast was great on Saturday, but on Sunday it was lacking eggs and many other items that were available on Saturday. Staff is great and helped us with all our questions. Loved the free shuttle to and from Midway. Steve the driver was very personable. Abdul at the front desk was wonderful as well.

Room needs updates
Very disappointed. Room needed MANY updates. Bathroom was gross. No hairdryer. Bed was uncomfortable. Staff was nice. Drive to airport was good.

2/10 Poor

Fraudulent hotel.
The posted pictures were nothing like the room. No amenities as advertised. We had to switch rooms because the first one was down a dark hall and had been broken into previously. Room smelled. Blinds were broken and had been repaired with a brochure. Pillows were old and lumpy. Top sheet was too small for the bed size. Two nice things: it was close to the airport and the shuttle was clean and on time.

This is a basic hotel that is fine for a one night stay between flights. The management is very accomodating and helpful. I have stayed here several times, I would again.

Staff was always so helpful and the area was quiet! But my room had a TV that didn’t have anything connected so I couldn’t watch, toilet would move and hit the wall every time I would stand up, the light didn’t work in the shower, the blinds were broken.

There was mold in the shower on the ceiling. The faucet for the sink wasn’t even attached to the sink, if you walked on their floor with white socks they came back absolutely filthy! My wife and I had to check out early and come home cause of her health issues with the mold! And yes I took pictures of it all! They still charged us for the full stay even though the room was not habitable! Avoid this motel!
