    dirty room
    poor breakfast

    the so-called king room was shabby and dirty, with sunflower seeds next to the bed. the free breakfast was a joke, only a few pieces of bread available. I expected some complimentary gesture for my troubles, but nope! I almost thought about leaving a good review, but just couldn’t. what a disappointment this place is!

    noise disturbances
    poor soundproofing

    The staff was wonderful and very nice.

    Unfortunately, my stay was riddled with disturbances. I heard noise from neighboring rooms, making it hard to get a decent night's sleep. It seemed like there was a lack of soundproofing, which definitely affected my experience.

    Just an excellent fit for a fleeting pause in Oak Forest with outstanding value. The staff were super helpful when I needed extra towels. Arrive early if you want a better choice of parking spots.

    great spots for walking and outdoor fun nearby

    i loved the clean room, which was a perfect base for exploring nearby parks like midlothian meadows forest preserve, just under 2 km away, and kostner park, only about 3.5 km away, offering plenty of picturesque walking areas and landmarks to enjoy during my weekend trip.

    convenient check-out
    working iron
    dirty walls
    sticky elevator
    unsafe surroundings

    The hotel presented significant cleanliness issues, with dirty walls and a sticky elevator floor. A strong odor of smoke permeated the premises, and the bathroom facilities were subpar, including a sagging mattress and a stopped-up sink. However, the check-out time of 12 noon was convenient, and the iron in the room worked perfectly for quick touch-ups. It’s important to consider the surroundings, as the parking lot was riddled with potholes and the area felt unsafe due to loiterers.
