Have stayed in a lot of hotels. This is #1 WORST. Too much to list, I just knew I needed to LEAVE for somewhere else. Dirty everything, building in disrepair, dead bugs, loud cussing and yelling in adjoining/connected room with a flimsy door and did not feel safe or think that I would be able to sleep. Front desk was selling beer out is a fridge at the front desk and several people in the hallways were imbibing.

This place seriously needs to be inspected. I travel for work and stay at low tier hotels weekly, this one is not just bad it’s terrible, mice in the rooms, stench is awful, garbage in hallways. Mold on walls, noisy all night. I stayed here one night and you would genuinely have to pay me to sleep here again. STATE OF ILLINOIS GO INSPECT THIS PLACE.

I’ve been to a lot of hotels, and I never expected to be fancy or top-notch, but this one was below my standards. The non-smoke room smelled like cigarette smoke. The entire the entire place was musty. The location felt unsafe, where the air conditioner was at on the second floor the entire floor around it was soft like it was gonna cave inand I saw cockroaches in the bathroom if it weren’t for the fact that I already paid for the hotel and I wouldnt have gotten a refund I wouldn’t have stayed.

Nothing was clean either in the room or the hallways, the sofas inside the rooms and the sheets.
Bathroom was falling apart.
Roaches were almost everywhere.

The floor looked wet. It was not actually wet. There was hair all over the beds. Random trash/dirt on the bathroom floor. Checked right back out and just took the loss on the money.
