Cleanliness
5
Multiple reviews mention poor cleanliness: soaked floors, towels not clean, stale smells, curtains and microwave described as unpleasant, and at least one room given that had not been cleaned on arrival.
Service
9
Service sentiment is generally positive: several guests call staff polite and kind (including accommodating service pets), staff tried to handle disturbances and some reviews praise staff as superb, though one or two guests reported unfriendly interactions.
Location
9
Location is frequently praised: convenient to interstate, stores, events (Chicagoland Speedway) and described as an easy drive and a good neighborhood feeling.
Room Quality
6.5
Room quality is mixed: some guests liked the king bed and found beds comfy, but others reported broken bathroom doors, malfunctioning air conditioning, TV/remote problems, soaked floors and unpleasant odors.
Amenities
6.8
Amenities are inconsistent: kitchen facilities are appreciated, but advertised pool/hot tub was missing, locks or doors were broken for some rooms, and the provided continental breakfast and kitchen stock were minimal.
Value for Money
8.3
Several guests explicitly say it's good value for the price and convenient for events, though some describe the property as a bit dumpy — overall perceived as decent value given location and basics provided.
Food and Beverage
6.8
Food offerings are limited: minimal continental breakfast (mini muffins, yogurt, juice, coffee) but having a kitchen is a positive for guests who can cook; overall modest F&B experience.
Overall Experience
7
Overall mixed experience: strong points are location and generally helpful staff, but cleanliness problems, occasional disruptive residents/noise and some broken room features pull the experience down.

Pros:

Staff was nice. It was clean. Bed was comfy.

Cons:

The TV did not work, or maybe it was the remote, regardless, I didn't get to use it. I did not tell the staff because I didn't know till a half hour before I left.

Pros:

The location was great. Easy drive to where we were going.

Cons:

The lock on the door wasn't quite lined up. The drunk that kept us up all night was awful. They did try to take care of it. They called the police twice.

Never Again!!!
Pros:

Location was perfect for our trip to Chicagoland Speedway

Cons:

Although we arrived early, and were given a room, it had not been cleaned. A room with 2 queen beds should have more than 2 towels, 2 forks and 2 glasses. There was not enough stock in the kitchen for 1 person let alone 4. No spoons, no kitchen towels and only 2 bath towels. I had to ask the maids repeatedly for more linens. The staff said to ask for what we needed but it would have been repeated requests. The residents attacked the coffee and fruit the minute it was set out, were very loud and crowded the lobby constantly. If an extended stay hotel is mainly for monthly rentals there should be an area for weekend and overnight guests.
