I've definitely stayed here many times in the past during the remodel and before and after I just have to say it's a great place the people are very friendly and not sure if the restaurant is still there but it was very nice and affordable If I'm ever up there again this will be where I stay. Don't know if miss Jennifer is still there as manager but hopefully she is she's the greatest

They need to do a serious renovation of the rooms and housekeeping can do a better job. They only clean rooms every 3rd day and when my husband asked on the third day for our to be clean they said the could the next day, I did not appreciate the service. We will never stay here again.

Its not a Marriott or Hilton and doesn't have a Marriott or Hilton price. For the price it's 4/5 all day. Easy acces location. Rooms were nice and clean, bathroom counters was nice but tub needed updated badly. Good stay. Happy we didn't pay much more for other hotels in the area

It's an old hotel, it's Illinois, nothing surprising.
