Quality Inn Ottawa near Starved Rock State Park

Nice staff, great value for the price. Clean rooms, nice breakfast.

We checked in very late after a 9 hrs drive. We showered and went to sleep. During the night the room became warm so we turned on the A/C and the smell of mildew and worse filled the room. We shut it off and went back to sleep. We complained in the morning and were given a new room. The comp. breakfast was only ok. The waffle maker was of poor quality and waffles not eatable, we saw lots of then in the garbage can. The bath/hand towels were small, old and needed to be replaced. The Hotel itself was very nice and in a good location. The Staff was understanding and very friendly. We may stay there again in the future.

The hotel was ok, but the location was perfect.

Checked in real late and didn't really interact with many people. Room was nice and clean, bathroom light was out, but again, it was late and we were tired so we didn't really care. I let them know on our way out in the morning.

Pleasant, and the staff was so nice. Very friendly place and everything was just fine. Accommodations were quite acceptable. It was very quiet to and peaceful.

This was a very comfortable night on a long road trip. We appreciated the friendly staff and the very clean and quiet room. Everything is basic, including breakfast, but good. We will stay here again on the way home.

We arrived in the afternoon and had a quick check in. Our room was clean as well as the common areas. The hotel was nearly full but very quiet. There were several signs that stated the hotel was being renovated, but I didn't see any evidence of this in terms of construction work, clutter or noise. The breakfast was a nice addition and the area was clean, well stocked and maintained. Check out was also quick and easy.

The coffee in the pot and coffee grounds were left in the coffee maker by housekeeping both days. We were given new cups and package coffee to use it again. The bathroom sink had a stain in it that would rub off, but it was still there when I left. So, the sink was not actually scoured. Yet she had a can of scouring cleanser on the housekeeping cart.

The Econolodge is located 9 miles from Starved Rock State Park, which is why I wanted to stay there. I tried to book at the lodge, but they were full. Thinking I would save some money, I decided to stay at the Econolodge. Terrible decision. The staff is not friendly at all. When I checked in, I was handed a copy of a receipt, which I was asked to sign. Since the form did not have a rate already filled in, and it required my signature, I asked for a copy. The manager rudely refused to provide me with one, saying that "this is our document and I do not need a copy of it." Furthermore, the entire hotel is supposed to be non-smoking, but our room immediately wreaked of cigarettes. The sheets had stains, and there was sock in the bed. Given that there are plenty of other hotels right next door, DO NOT STAY HERE. It is not even that cheap.

After taxes room came out to $90. The room is more like a $30-$40 room. Still have tube tvs. Hotel not updated at all! Room stunk like pi$$ and ammonia. I will Never stay there again. Very ghetto.
