Hotel's Favourite
The motel looks a bit dated but rooms were clean enough and spacious. Plenty of parking. Indoor pool. Breakfast good. 10 minutes walk to Brookfield station which takes you downtown and tickets only $7 return. Some good places to eat good Mexican food. Microbrewery 20 minutes walk away.

I have spent 30+ years in hotel management. I was very pleased with this property. Very comfortable bed! Slept great even though my room was right over Lincoln Ave. I never heard traffic. The gentleman at the desk was very helpful. He heard me having difficulty opening my room door and he literally ran to help me. (I walk on crutches and this room was on 2nd floor. Nothing to be done about that as it was a last minute booking.) Room was great. Clean, no odors or missed trash. The only problem was the bedside lamp closest to the bathroom was not plugged in properly so it kept going on and off. The alarm clock radio was plugged into this lamp so it didn't keep time right. That's why only a 4/5 rating. I will definitely stay here again!

First we had to wait 3+ hours to check in because the guy in the office had NO IDEA what he was doing and he almost made us miss our concert. Then we woke up the next morning to a frozen AND iced over bathroom floor. So bad that my feet were wet when I walked out of the bathroom and all of us almost slipped and fell going into the bathroom. I tried to call and let someone know about this and they just said "well there is no way that could have happened, maybe your heat wasn't on?" (this was in January). I had the heat blasting, and still woke up to a below 60 degree room and a frozen bathroom floor. Pay a little extra to stay somewhere that is actually decent and with a company that actually cares about their customers. Because Rodeway Inn could not care less about their customers if they tried.

What a great little hotel. Lots of places to eat in the area. Nice room not terribly outdated. And doesn’t smell like stale smoke! Huge bonus! Nice quaint little hotel! If your particular about you pillow might bring your own. These are a bit soft and thin! Other than that a great room for the money!!

Interesting stay at an ‘affordable ‘ hotel in North Chicago while taking our daughter to college. The room was spacious and clean with a pull-out couch. It was lacking other basics- no closet to hang clothes, no hairdryer, no sink counter space for toiletries bag, no laundry bag for dirty clothes. There was soap for hand washing! The walls were thin so we could hear our neighbors but we didn’t have trouble sleeping. Very odd parking situation so if you’re traveling there, definitely use the ‘west’ lot or you will be backed me up onto North Lincoln to get out! It was a rainy, stormy night but we could walk across the street for dinner. The walkway around the hotel was a little slippery on our return. No coffee in the registration area but vending and vending and ice machine. Friendly staff retrieved extra pillow and blanket for us.

The desk person was very friendly. This is an older hotel but it appears it has been going through recent repairs and upgrades. The room was clean and odor free. The room had been recently painted and the bathroom redone. Oddly there was no bath tub only a shower area. The only distraction was the cleaning crew left carts/racks of the dirty laundry sitting outside the office overnight at the front of the hotel. As this was a lower priced hotel it more than met my expectations.

This is a great place to stay to sleep. That’s what I was looking for. Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean. Older hotel but updated. Can be loud as this is a motel. I felt very safe. Parking is easy. Good value for the money.

My brother and I were spending the weekend on vacation. We only wanted a reasonable and clean room. What we got was terrible service and a misserable experiance. DO NOT stay here. I'd give 0 stars if i could. Advertises a non-existant free breakfast and gave me more obviously soiled sheets to replace the bloody ones we found on the bed. Choice hotels is close to losing our business forever if they let other motels be like this. I dont require much, just that my hotel be clean. That is all.
