Mixed: several mentions of cleanliness (clean countertops, generally clean beds) but also notable issues (hair on bed, damp towels, previous guest's underwear found, some surfaces/cabinet not clean) indicating inconsistent housekeeping.

Nice
Pros:

Holiday Inn Express Chicago NW - Arlington Heights by IHG

So far. Nice. Clean. This Holiday Inn did some major light updates. Nice blue lights. Normally it's green.

Great breakfast. I feel I should mention that our room was almost perfect. We had an ant issue. While we were in our room, a large group of ants invaded our room. We were at level 3. They mostly attacked my open coke pop can and they crawled all over my wife while she was sleeping. I told the front counter and they gave us a replacement room, but the replacement room had cigar smells. It was a handicap room, but the person before us clearly was smoking a lot. Other than those two issues, the hotel was fine.

Highly Recommended.

Communication could have been better, but close to shopping mall
Pros:

Location close to Mall which was the plan for the next day.
Bed comfy & room clean.

Cons:

I booked this hotel as had a free airport shuttle. Arrived to find no shuttle, & no phone number worked to try & find how I could get to hotel. Ended up getting a $60 taxi which was very annoying. Staff apologised when arrived but did nothing except say sorry shuttle got damaged. (Would have been nice to know as would have changed hotel as had time too when accident happened) Staff the next day were amazing & did more. Was appreciated, but still frustrating.
