I had called around for a place for me my boyfriend and my 3yr old daughter to stay til we could find somewhere to live. This was cheap and allowed pets for $40 for the week. I was also told that there's free wifi needless to say we will never stay here again! My boyfriend has an apple mac and... More

I used to work in this hotel and it was very nice back in the day. I am so sorry to see that it has gone to hell with no chance of survival. The old owners would be ashamed this is a total discrace. More

The hotel is very basic, not fancy, nor does it pretend to be. It's no better or worse than other similarly-priced hotels in the area. I have read some of these reviews and heard customers at the front desk talk about how this hotel used to be in the past...when the hotel staff looked a lot different. It is no... More

Very scary. Not safe for children or anyone afraid of disease! To be fair, the Sweden House Lodge was probably quite nice in its day. But, that day was a long time ago. On the positive side, the location is convenient, the price is cheap, and the rooms are large. However, the hotel is filthy, smells like a combination of... More

Worst stay in my life. Indoor pool is "closed indefinitely" according to the sign on the door. Has been closed for 9 months although it's still promoted on Priceline and Sweden House's web sites. Scary people in the lobby and throughout. We paid for two rooms, 4 people per room. They gave us 2 towels per room. I asked for... More

We understood we would be getting a simple place for $48. The lobby is charming with quaint painted wood work and cute furnature. The staff is ok but really this is where it ends. There is a sign on door announcing that the pool will be closed indefinitely. Not only is this misleading, but disappointing for a child who expected... More

On the positive, it was a large room with separate bathroom area. On the negative side, it is beginning to look shabby, Wifi wouldn't work, breakfast was very limited, the pool is closed, and the bed wasn't very comfortable. If it was a great deal, I'd consider staying there again, otherwise, I'd look elsewhere. More

I went to this hotel and was there for only 2 hours. The rooms are the dirtiest things I have ever seen in my life. The floors have stains and burnt marks EVERYWHERE!!! There was even a beer bottle opener in the bathroom. It was the tackiest place that I have visited. After going to the "awesome" bars down town... More

We visited Rockford in June for a family birthday party. We were traveling with my Grandparents who love all things Swedish. We booked a one-night stay at the Sweden House Lodge thinking it would be a fun experience for them. Boy, were we wrong. We checked in to the hotel around 2:30. Although we had heard the hotel was recently... More

Oh, where do I begin? My friend and I decided to stay there on a whim. We are locals and pass by this hotel daily, but were curious about the inside of this once grand hotel. The country of Sweden should sue this hotel for defamation. The place is all rundown and sad. A sign outside said there were apartments... More
