We have stayed in this motel the last three times we've been in this area. There were usually some small problems but nothing that made enough difference for us to not go back. This time when we checked in I had requested a ground floor room because I have had knee surgery and am going to have it on my other knee. We got a room on the second floor they said it was their last room. I had to walk up two sets of stairs then walk to the room. The railing that I had to pull my weight up the stairs with was pulled out of the wall at the top. I almost fell. Then the dead bolt in our door would not lock, PLUS the little top latch lock was removed on the door side. We tried to call the front desk to report these things but the phone didn't work so my husband had to walk all the way back to the lobby to report the problems. When he went outside someone was lying on the ground out by the cars and he looked like he'd been beat up. The staff was very helpful. An older employee came up to our room. We discovered we could get the deadbolt to lock IF my husband lifted the door up and turned the deadbolt. We were ok with that then she was checking the phone and found the telephone wire was just laying on the floor. There wasn't even a jack to plug the phone in PLUS the lady got shocked while she was checking the wire because there was a bare wire coming out of the hole in the wall where the phone was supposed to be plugged in. Needless to say, we won't be staying again.

I was not even able to check in as I had the audacity to ask why they needed a credit card for incidentals when checking in at 230 am in the morning when I was leaving in a few hours. The clerk was belligerent towards me, swore at me and did not even check me in, so now have to wait for refund as I had already paid. Through my drivers license and credit card at me and then used f-bombs directed at me when I was leaving. Had to go find another place to stay after already paying and have not yet seen a cent back for my stay.

I had to book this place as I was driving from Toronto Canada to Chicago. I decided to book this hotel becsusd my family and I needed a place to rest and continued our journey next morning. It felt like a horror movie. Starting from the receptionist It was very loud and unkind. He took my credit card way too long ehich ir makes me feel uncomfortable. Next the smell in the whole place is like a bar, cigarettes and Marijuana. Our room was quite dirty. The bathroom still had the soap for the previous guest and toilet paper in the garbage. The bed had hair on the pillows and even my son found toe nails in the sheets. In the morning we saw and video taped roaches in the bathroom and the dresser. I had to block the door withna big chair and a table because it was so loud around 2 am that I felt like someone is coming inside of our room to hurt us. Absolutely DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. IN MY OPINION IS BETTER TO REST IN THE CAR ON A WALMART PARKING LOT.

The person who checked us in was wonderful. Other employees looked to be having a party out front. Cigarette butts were everywhere out front of the main doors. The hallways smelled of a mixture of mildew and smoke. The corners of the rooms were not clean and most every metal surface was pitted and rusty. I have stayed in far better hotels for much less money than this.
