Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Chicago O'Hare South, IL

10/10 Excellent

"One small issue, I'm very sensitive and allergic to smells. The room or possibly carpeting had an odor that congested me. It was difficult to sleep and breathe during the night, otherwise it was fine. Updating by removing carpet like other remodeled hotels should be done in my opinion. Thank you."

Best Western Plus Chicago Hillside

4/10 Poor

"Restaurant was not open, but you could eat in the bar. The food was not good at all. There was no flavor. Everything tasted bland. And everything was served in a clear see-through plastic cup with a lid they couldn’t even give you a real glass. I would never return to this best western and I will never be referring best western to anyone."

Motel 6 Schiller Park, IL - Chicago O'Hare

6/10 Okay

"The staff member who checked me in during the evening (approximately between 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM) was absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, I did not catch her name, but she made an excellent first impression. She was welcoming, professional, hospitable, and genuinely seemed eager to assist with anything needed. Her positive attitude set the tone for what I hoped would be a great stay. Unfortunately, my experience with the staff during the later shifts was quite different. The front desk employee working overnight came across as abrupt and unapproachable, and interactions felt unnecessarily tense. Similarly, my experience with the morning staff was disappointing. While I fully acknowledge my responsibility for oversleeping and checking out approximately an hour late, the manner in which the situation was addressed felt unprofessional. The use of inappropriate language and the overall tone of the interaction were unnecessary and detracted from the guest experience. As for the property itself, the room was clean and parking was convenient and hassle-free. However, there was a noticeable lingering odor in the room that impacted overall comfort. I would like to extend special recognition to the employee who checked me in. Her professionalism and hospitality stood out and reflected the level of customer service I would have hoped to experience throughout my stay. I only wish the same standard had been maintained by the other staff members I encountered."

Rodeway Inn Lyons - La Grange

"The front desk attendant was really pleasant and gave us a great Chinese Restaurant recommendation. He was very sweet and I did not get his name, but he was very welcoming and friendly. He definitely is great at his job! I would like to thank him so much! Please let him know that the Chinese food was amazing! And we will definitely stay again soon! The room was very clean and the perfect temperature. We absolutely enjoyed our stay."
