"About 18 miles from downtown Chicago. Nice amenities without the traffic and high prices of downtown and airport hotels. There were lots of restaurants with outdoor seating in the area. My room on the 12th floor had a nice view of the Chicago skyline, though the sound of the El was somewhat annoying until I got used to it. I ate dinner at the on-site restaurant, which was quite good.2018-07-30"

"My hotel room was too hot, and there was no fan. The heater was so loud at night that I couldn't sleep. Find another place to stay.2019-03-31"
"An older hotel, but it was comfortable and charming even though it didn't have fancy amenities. The room was on the small side, but it was fine for sleeping and the bed was comfortable. The window AC worked well but was quite loud. The front desk clerk was professional, friendly, and accommodating. Fantastic complimentary breakfast. Parking was limited; I parked at a lot several blocks away and walked.2018-08-21"

"For the price I paid, this motel met my expectations. It's on a busy street, so I heard a lot of traffic noise, but the room and bedsheets were clean, and that's essential to me. No fridge, but the coffee maker was appreciated. There was a dresser instead of a closet. New, large TV. The wireless Internet speed was slow at times. The bathroom was clean and remodeled, and the towels were clean and adequate. I recommend this hotel for a short stay.2016-10-17"
"Nothing extravagant, but this motel was worth the price. No hassles. The room was pretty clean. Good parking. I recommend if you just need a night's sleep.2015-10-19"
"OK motel, but not as nice as the online photos made it look. The check-in clerk was rude, and responded to my questions as if I were dumb. I'll never stay here again.2015-08-04"
"Great location and rates, but the area was noisy with traffic and airplanes. We asked for an adjoining room, and got a room that adjoined the office. The bedsheets were stained. No closet or space to hang up clothing. No suitcase stands. No shelf in the shower for soap and shampoo, and we only got 2 towels. The motel had ample parking.2015-05-10"

"My hotel room smelled like smoke, and the hallways were quite dirty; there were beer bottles and glasses outside my room when I checked in, and they were still there when I checked out.2017-11-21"
"Good experience. The hotel room was clean, but the AC fan was loud. I told the front desk clerk, but it wasn't fixed. I asked for another room, but was told no other rooms were available. I barely slept for 2 nights.2016-10-06"

"This is a budget motel. Not at all fancy, but it was adequate. Located on a busy street. The room was clean, though the beds weren't great. The bathroom door handle was falling off. Breakfast was pretty nice and included hot selections, but the sausage wasn't ready until 20 minutes after opening one morning. The staff seemed pleasant enough. Bring your ear plugs if you're bothered by road noise at night.2017-10-03"
"The motel was quiet and easy to access. The front desk clerk was efficient. No problems, and I was able to have my dog in the room.2015-08-01"
