The owners bought an aging Travelodge and have been working to renovate it, but it's very much a work in progress. Keep your expectations low, especially considering how economical the place is. There are still a lot of scratches in the paint and bathroom fixtures that need replacing, but everything in the room worked, and the beds were quite comfortable. It was also very clean.

Work in progress

Room basic, no coffee facility which I think is pretty much a standard requirement. Bed comfy enough. Pretty rough looking inside & out. Hair in the shower recess which was horrid, strongly suggestive that it’s not cleaned between guests. Decent sized room in great location. A good stop over but not fantastic in anyone’s language. Other guests fighting loudly late at night outside our door was irritating but certainly not the fault of the complex. Toilet is loose on the floor so needs repair. 
Can highly recommended Holly’s for dinner, but be aware it’s popular so you may wait but well worth it & FABULOUS staff

Just ok, not great

For $50 a night this place was okay.  Yeah, it's old.  But the bed was comfortable, the cable was great, the location is great, and the people who run it were nice.  The room was clean, but the wifi was pretty slow.  But if all you plan to do is sleep in the room it's fine.

Stop whining!

We stayed, myself and some work colleagues, in this motel as a stop before we arrived in Chicago. We booked the night before and we spent about $ 40 each (taxes included). I have never stayed in such a dirty place.Yellow pillows.Presence of hairs in drawers.Carpet with bad smell.

Dirty Place

Comfortable bed, but with an old key system and outdoor access to all rooms, the dead bolt should fit in the door frame and work, but no.  The stench of old carpet and smoke seft a stench in the room that belied the office sign saying all rooms were non-smoking.  Soap is a wafer and shampoo a packet thinner than a condom wrapper.  Comcast unit dangles from the TV.  Ancient fridge...oh, ever so dreary with pieces of pipe holding the windows locked.  This place is really tired and you get well below the $50 rate of value, except no bugs, clean bath, and the desire to escape to the beautiful nature around...and there is the irony, disappointment upon return.  My email request to confrim the room was non smoking was never returned.

Beat property kept clean sort-of, but...

Came in late, owner was rude since the moment i got there. He was making rude remarks and then i locked myself out of my room and the owner would not give me another key, so he told me to call the cops. So i had to stand outside for 2 hours in the cold in a pandemic to wait for the police to come and tell the owner to let me into my room, then the next morning he keeps my $5 deposit he is suppose to give back if nothing is wrong with the room. Nothing was wrong with the room except the bed sheets from the bed being slept in.  Have never had such rude business at a hotel in my life. Never recommend going here!!!!!!!

Locked out

The only thing that's good, is how convenient the location is, the rest is bad. The experience was unpleasant from the start. The office smelled strongly of stale curry. Their prices are higher than competing hotels in town I've stayed at. I feel remorse for not having taken pictures, as room pictures online I've seen DON"T MATCH AT ALL to the room I was rented. From what I've seen, everything they do here concerning: repairs, cleaning, fixtures, furniture, even the soap, shows that they don't care, they just want your money. They demanded a cash deposit for the room key after I paid for the room with my credit card. When I handed them a bill greater than the $5.00 they requested, they acted dumbfounded, and had to call the manager (owner?) for change. They also demanded to know whether or not I smoked, as their hand written sign declared "no smoking", and they were very rude about the matter, asking again and again until they got an answer. The room was very depressing. It was as though they bought everything (I do mean everything) in the room second hand. The soap in the bath was from a Comfort Inn (dated 1997 no less). The shower had black streaks in the grout, and also a tile saying I was at the "TraveLodge". A bit of research shows that indeed, this used to be a TraveLodge, and in fact, it had been there in the 50's (different mascots every 10yrs). I used to think other places were bad in this city, this is worst. Don't stay here. I don't care if they have rooms available, and everywhere is booked in a 30 mile radius, don't stay here.
