Some updates have been done to bathroom but over all simple motel. Very noisy wall AC and for the price paid I would expect more up to date room.
Excellent customer service. Scalding hot day meant the room a/c had trouble keeping up to keep room cool. Room itself was lovely. Bathroom had nice clean handicap accessible shower. ONLY negative is that the door to the room (since a motel was to parking lot) was very thin, lightweight and weak. There was a deadbolt, but that would not prevent an intruder from getting in. I could see daylight through the door; between the door and door frame. Since I was there with two teen girls, I did not feel safe. The manager agreed to refund nights 2 & 3 so that we could move to a hotel with indoor rooms, and sturdier door. I was very pleased with the excellent customer service, in accommodating our need to leave. I also think a peephole in the door would be a good change. When someone knocked on the door at 5:30 and 6 am Sunday morning, I would have liked to have been able to see who it was! Thanks
good stay, nice location, very close to brookfield zoo.
I stay here several times a month due to low price, cleanliness, staff accomodation. The lack of a breakfast is the main reason I search for another motel in the area.
