Towels were prob from 1978 and the cockroaches were big. Otherwise there was a bed in the room. Should be $50 a night. Not sure why it’s over $150!?!?

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I immediately had to ask to be switched to another room upon arrival as my room smelled, and there was a big bug on the wall. The sidewalks were cracked and crumbling. One of the chairs in my room was filthy and had a giant burn in the center. I took a photo but I don't see how to download to this review. The floor of the shower was squishy and I felt like I was going to slip or fall over. I realize the rate for this motel was very inexpensive but I would not stay here again.

I really liked the back yard landscaping ie; fire pit setup. 2 gazebos with 2 outdoor grills each very spacious . I noticed that the pool however was very small . I didnt like being charged double due to an event in the area, especially since the MAIN EVENT didnt even occur due to little wind. GREAT GALENA BALLOON FEST / RACE/ GLOW ?????

I did not like anything about this property. Staff that we had to call for service to begin. insisted that I need to pay again when I had the receipt in my hands. Beds are awful and super uncomfortable, Web sight said I had a mountain view, I look out the window and saw trees from the ground to the sky. Please show me where in Illinois is there a mountain? I have lived here all my life and do not know of mountains in the flat lands. Web sight said that I had a queen bed, it was a Full size bed. Very upsetting.

Great location next to busy road but wasnt too loud. I got placed in room 25 which had two stink bugs crawling on the wall and I couldn't shower or brush my teeth due to sink AND shower water reeking of sulphur and rotton eggs. It made the whole bathroom stink. The lady at front desk was short and not helpful.

Disliked: Amenities
The motel is in a main highway and is very noisy with trucks at night. I went to the vending machine to purchase a chocolate bar, when I opened the package the candy bar was white. I went to the office to let the manager know that the package was old and to try and get my money back but he said he didn't understand. The hair dryer didn't work as well and the office never opened on time to get the complimentary coffee in the morning. The price was the most cost effective but next time I think I will pay a little more.
