"Great hotel for flying out of O'Hare since it's only 30 miles away. About 3 miles from the interstate and a few miles from most restaurants in the city center. The hotel was clean, but the exercise room didn't have free weights. Breakfast had hot and cold selections. I've stayed here before, and the property is starting to show some wear, at least in my room.2016-12-19"
"Straight drive to the base, and about five miles from restaurants. The hotel staff was warm and welcoming. Nice place to stay.2016-12-05"
"Close to the interstate, the naval base, and a variety of restaurants. About 30 minutes from O'Hare Airport. The front desk clerks were extremely helpful in pointing out the natural reserve nearby, where there were running paths, catch-and-release fishing, a playground, and a water recreation area. The hotel had a gym and provided hot and cold items for breakfast.2016-06-13"

"The hotel room smelled bad, and the decor was outdated. The pool was closed. The breakfast bar was poorly stocked, and there was no food for over 30 minutes. One of the waffle makers was broken, and the fridge for the milk and yogurt was, too. The vending machines were overpriced. Stay somewhere else.2017-10-04"

"Reasonable rates. The hotel room was clean but could've used some fresh paint. The electrical outlets didn't work to charge electronics. The lobby was well-kept, and the employees were helpful and professional. There were bars and restaurants in the area.2018-03-17"

"The price was right, but the hotel wasn't especially clean and had a foul smell. The staff was unfriendly. The pool was closed during our stay, and the complimentary breakfast was a fail.

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
