Do not stay here
Pros:

We spent four or five hours killing nine half 2T three-quarter inch flying huge beetles. We were offered to switch to another room, but one guest is not very ambulatory and we didn’t know if the other room would also have these flying bags. Then in the morning, the elevator was broken so 81 year old husband had to carry suitcases and coolers down two flights of stairs. No staff available to help.

Caught in a Blizzard!
Pros:

My band and I had a gig in Chicago. It started to snow really bad by the time we had to leave back towards home. We decided that it would be safer to just find a hotel for the evening.

I found this place on Google Maps, and since I am a rewards member, I gave them a call. They fortunately had a nice room available, with two queens and a hide-a-bed.

It was a quick and friendly check in. We were hungry but it was snowing too much to visit the bar across the lot, so we were happy that the vending machines were stocked!

The beds were nice and comfortable, with quality bedding and pillows. All set for a good night's rest.

We woke early and were able to enjoy a nice, hot breakfast in a clean dining room.

Then we packed up and hit the freshly plowed roads!

See you next time!

Stay Somewhere Else
Pros:

hotel is run down and dirty. Black mold in bathroom. Tile in bathroom is broken up and dangerous. Toilet leaning into wall . The hotel needs some work on both maintenance and cleanliness. First room assigned had a door handle that was hanging off.

Not a pleasant experience.
Pros:

This hotel needs to be shut down and completely redone. The furniture is mismatched and falling apart, the paint is old and dark, the carpet is very dirty. I think that the employees are doing the best they can with what they have been given to work with. I gave it a star because I had an accessable room, the bed was decent. The person I was traveling with said her bed was awful. I would not recommend staying here to anyone.

Pros:

We got there later in the evening and were exhausted after traveling all day. The woman that checked us in was very kind and lovely, but the good stops there. We were barely able to sleep because the television would just randomly turn on and off, and other noises from in the room. The bathroom fan would make an insanely loud screeching sound every time the light was turned on, so we had to just leave it off. The latch for the lock was broken, thankfully the deadbolt at least worked, but you had to slam the door to actually get it to shut. The carpeting was grimy and sticky with a film, there was a spot of dried blood on the sheet that we found the next morning when we woke up, as well as a mass of mold on the fabric of the bed skirt. We didnt see the blood spot or mold last night because we were too exhausted to inspect the room, but honestly we shouldn’t have to. Also, the shower head would not actually work, you could run the water from the faucet but that was it - the shower head itself wouldn’t turn on. There were major safety and health concerns with that room/hotel overall. If I would have been traveling by myself I would have left immediately on the simple fact that I would not have felt safe staying there by myself with a door that wouldn’t latch properly. I never write complaints as I understand things happen, and sometimes you get what you pay for, but you shouldn’t ever have to worry about sacrificing your health and well-being when you pay to stay somewhere.

Pros:

The GOOD:
1. Staff! Everyone was friendly and helpful to the best of their abilities.
2. Cost. Reasonable.
3. Location. Right off the highway. Close to shopping/dining. About 25 minutes from Valpo.
4. Pool. Appeared well-maintained. My daughters enjoyed it.

The BAD:
1. Filthy! Not talking about the bedding and counters. Housekeeping staff seems adequate enough (didn't encounter anyone directly). It's the overall facility - windows, window treatments (curtains, blinds), etc that are so laden with dirt and dust and grime that they're discolored.
2. Ventilation needs upgrade. Unknowingly booked a room with a jetted tub. The smell of mildew permeated the entire room. Additionally, the sign above the tub said it would be sanitized daily, however housekeeping doesn't come daily. In my 3 days at the hotel, the tub was not cleaned/sanitized.
3. Smoke. Smoking is permitted right near the entrance, causing breathing difficulty for those with asthma.

Pros:

First off, the elevator was out and no one was even going to come and look at it until the next day.
The building is worn out and not very well maintained. The doors are difficult to open and close. The fixtures are very old and outdated. The carpet throughout is in desperate need of replacement. You can’t continue to pour some sort of freshener onto it to get rid of the musty smell, it just doesn’t work that way.
The staff was very nice.

Pros:

Really worn down property. It’s not solely about updates, but things are no longer clean it’s so old and things just are not repaired either.
