Our room was so dirty, there were dead bugs on the walls. The drains in the bathroom did not drain, the table we had was sticky, there was old coffee grounds in the coffee maker, and we found underwear in one of the bathroom drawers. We didn’t even sleep under the covers because it felt so gross but the bed was hard and so they gave us was a couple sheets. The walls were dirty the door frames and the floor and stains all over them. There was dirt collecting on every inch of every baseboard. Terrible stay. Only did it for a music festival

Dirty and disgusting.

Came for concert at United Center. Saw priced at 177 night total 200 or so. Saw reviews stated cleanliness was 7.2 or higher on reviews. They lied. The bed sheets were inside out and dirty in underside. Pop splashed on wall next to the bed. Bathroom door didn’t latch, lock or shut tight; hairs and private hairs on bath towels. Bathroom sink and toilet hadn’t been cleaned. Everything was filthy. Seems they did vacuum maybe. The prices on the wall in motel office showers lower by a decent amount from what I paid hotels.com. Complained to hotels; complained to motel; no fixes.

This property is just old and needs some repairs. Some effort has been put forward in this regard, but more would be nicer. There are wall defects and paint on the bathroom tiles.

Room was disgusting. There were cigarette burns on the bed and mold all over. I left 20 minutes after checking in to stay somewhere else and would like a refund.
