    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel, and a huge part of that was thanks to the hotel manager, Selma (I apologize if I’m misspelling her name). She was incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely caring from the moment I interacted with her. You can tell she takes real pride in her work and in making guests feel welcome and respected. The hotel itself was excellent — the rooms were very clean, well maintained, and comfortable, which made it easy to relax and feel at home. Smelled very nice too. The breakfast was also very good, with a nice selection and everything fresh and well prepared. It was honestly one of the better hotel breakfasts I’ve had. I loved the woman who prepared it every morning I was there. My dog loved her too! I came early the night before my check in and they offered me food which was very rare and made me feel very welcomed. It’s rare to come across someone who goes out of their way to treat people with such patience and understanding, and Selma absolutely did that. She turned what could have been just a regular hotel stay into a genuinely positive experience. Because of her and the overall quality of the hotel, I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to others without hesitation.

    I think the concrete floor in my basement is more comfortable than the bed and the receptionist was more concerned with her TV show and talking on the phone than giving me my room key. I understand it's not some grand hotel, but I'd prefer to not wake up feeling like I was run over by a semi truck because of the bed. Also probably not a great thing that the hotel smelled wet.

    BeeDubs got yer back over there near O’Hare. It ain’t the best in the West, but it’ll do in the Midwest. Comfortable beds, decent shower and near the airport for a cheap price that doesn’t sacrifice my feeling safe.
