From the start, I paid only $55 for the room on Priceline (including their service and tax). The hotel was ideally located only a 15 minute drive from O'Hare (if you avoided the freeway to get there) and only about 5 or 6 minutes from Woodfield Mall and its restaurants. Downtown Chicago was 20 miles or so away, but then... more

This has long been a "go-to" place for me whenever I've wanted to take a break from everything, without the hassle of traveling far from home. The hotel is quiet, comfortable, and has excellent amenities (including two pools and exercise equipment), friendly and helpful staff, and a really nice restaurant. I stayed there again last week, and was pleasantly surprised... more

I booked this hotel through the ParkSleepFly.com website. We stayed the evening of October 10, flew out of O’Hare on the 11th and picked up our vehicle on October 18th. The package included 1 nights stay, up to 14 days of parking and shuttle service to and from the airport. Check in was quick and efficient, the room clean. The... more

We stayed in the SS for two weeks while here on business. There are six of us who each stayed in six seperate rooms and spanned three floors. The renovations are complete and I cant believe some of the whiny reviews I had seen on here during the renovation. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. We got here... more

We were staying at a hotel near O'Hare so I looked at Trip Advisor for a restaurant in the area. The atmosphere at Topa is similar to an upscale restaurant in Oak Brook or downtown Chicago, but it is not the least bit stuffy. The co-owner, Paul, even sat down with us to answer a question. The host, server and... more

Pete takes detail to select the right combination of ingredients for all his dishes. I especially love the Baked Mostaccioli and the deep dish pizzas. His pizza is well established in the community as one of the very best. He has been around for at least 20 years. If you are in the neighborhood, check him out. more

Extremely difficult to find as it was signed as another hotel with just a Ramada banner over the old sign which had partly fallen off. Very bland foyer, self service luggage trollies at the door. No towels at the pool, you had to walk all the way back to the check-in for a towel. Very plain bland rooms but at... more

We stayed at this hotel in september. We have stared there a few times before and had no problems. Front dest was nice, gave wake up call and schuttle . The hotel is not fancy but our room was clean. The area is questionable with the bar on one side, but we did go over to the McDonalds for late... more

I like this hotel, I had a bad experience this time - dirty iron and an early wake up call (better than none I guess). All in all though for the money it's fine. I'll likely stay again, but be sure to check the iron that it's clean! more

I have been eating cakes from Jarosch since I was a kid, and Im 37 now. My Mom and Dad got these cakes for EVERY OCCASION ie: Birthday, Baby Showers etc...I have moved out of the Chicago area in 91, to PA and now VA. AND EVERYTIME I COME HOME, I TAKE A FROZEN BUTTERCREAM CAKE HOME WITH ME ON... more

A dreadful experience from the start. I arrived late, around 8pm, and was given a room on the 3rd floor. As soon as I walked in I could smell smoke, despite a note saying it was a smoke-free hotel. After a few minutes, the smell died down and I thought I was imagining it. I'd received a voucher for a... more

I usually always check on tripadvisor before making hotel reservations. This time I did not, as we went on a spur of the moment trip to Mexico and needed several days of parking. Choosing this hotel was a huge mistake. I agree with others that the hotel was scary!! When we arrived after dark, MANY people, mostly men, were hanging... more

I stay here a lot, and this is very nice hotel in this area I can say that sure. I love their pool and hot spa. people are very good and they know everything. excellent place to stay. i am always getting what i am paying for. highly recommended hotel. more

I was a single female travelling alone - I am a very seasoned traveller and have stayed in all types of hotels, budget accommodations and hostels and I have never been afraid to sleep like I was in your hotel. First off, the front desk guy looked like a gang member, there was activity from 1am to 4am in the... more

This was a motel and a hotel in one. We booked it to save some money. Well, you can't expect much for $60. The room itself was not bad, they had free parking, free breakfast, but there were some shady people walking around at night, some teenagers who asked us if we wanted to get drunk. The staff were very... more

Terrible beds. Had bugs near the door. In desperate need of renovations. Not your typical Days Inn. Not in a safe area. Hotel offers a continental breakfast, I had breakfast at a nearby McDonalds. Enough said. One a positive note, Front Desk was very nice. more

I booked this hotel primarily for the low price - four days cost us (2 adults plus our 14 yr old son) just over 300 $ - and the short way to the airport. I found out that driving to and (especially at night) from downtown locactions on I-90 does not take more than 20 to 35 minutes which seems... more

This hotel is to be avoided by families. The beds are undersized and uncomfortable (nightmares of quicksand and severe back pain). The alleged indoor pool and spa were "under construction,." despite the fact that we booked this hotel for these ammenities. This hotel also attempted to overcharge our family despite the fact that we booked with a discount. During the... more

My wife and I used the Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Elk Grove Village O'Hare "Stay and Fly" option for a recent two week trip to the Caribbean. The place was well-maintained, the room clean, and the staff courteous and service-oriented. We had a *very* early flight out of O'Hare, requiring a 4am shuttle to the airport. When the cab... more
