This hotel is creepy!!! We had to stop there because we had been driving for 12 hours and were exhausted... But really, we should have went for another few minutes. Cost us 95$ for an old king size bed room, we were on the first floor and the outside door did not lock, the front door was not very safe... more

I'm about to go to Elgin again this summer and wanted to make sure I NEVER stayed at this hotel again as it is the WORST hotel EVER in EXISTENCE. We stayed there while attending a family reunion with our, then, 6 month old son. First off, we are pretty sure that there were people who lived there. And you... more

In short, ceiling falling in bathtub, in more than 3 of the 5 rooms I looked at to find one hospitable, tv's worked half the time with little to no reception for the 6 channels that were available. Locks and security was a joke, the exterior doors didn't even have lock cores in the doors. Worst possibel nightmare-ish experience ever,... more

If this hotel was the last place on earth to stay, I'd sleep out in the bushes! This has to be the worst hotel I've ever been in. The patio doors were broke. They were full of mold & mildew. The paint was peeling in the bath room. Electrical wires were hanging out of the wall plate in the bathroom.... more

The ONLY thing nice about this place were the staff which worked there. THis hotel smells bad(hold your breath bad), bathrooms floods, lights don't work in rooms, bugs in the rooms, sliding glass doors to outside do not close all the way, the iron offered at the front desk was rusty. the community microwave looked as though a cat exploded... more

Went into Elgin for a family party, and due to a baseball tournament, had to stay here one night. It was the most disgusting hotel I've ever stayed in. Thankfully, we moved to another hotel first thing the next morning. Upon arrival (11:00 pm), there were 2 men w/o shirts sitting in the tiny lobby drinking beer and watching TV.... more

Great find.

My friend and I got forced off the road in a terrible storm, and were saved by the glowing sun of the Days Inn sign. We went inside and were able to get a room without having had a reservation and for a lower price than we were planning to pay at the hotel where we had intended to stay... more
