We stayed overnight here in Rochelle IL and we are making good time. This Holiday Inn Express is clean and welcoming, the staff is very friendly and accommodating, and it has the best (free) breakfast I've ever experienced. I recommend it to any road weary travellers who are in need of a very pleasant oasis.

The best part of my experience was the nocturnal-fed nonplussed attitude of the check in girl.

Then I couldn't understand him because there was already a language barrier since Im not fluent in tech-supporties. Finally I get checked in but he didn't make my key for the right amount of days I was staying so my key went dead. The rooms are clean but very dark. Not much for lighting. The problem with the rooms is there's Indian immigrants on the same floor so the over powering smell of curry is nauseating. My whole room smells like a wet dog that's been dead for a few days. Funny how we can't smoke in our rooms but cooking curry is ok. Then the window is calked shut so I can't even air my room out. The elevators are sketch AF. They seriously need an upgrade. The better treadmills in the fitness room are broken too. The only plus is I haven't experienced bed bugs yet but I'm not holding my breath.

But, no extra pillows and only 2 towels. Absolutely ridiculous. We were given two extra pillows but there were no extra blankets available. We were given extra towels after asking but we should have received more than two towels to start. Had to beg for more pillows and luckily for 2 more. Have more pillows and blankets. You're in the Midwest where it gets cold! We had them clean the room one time only. They put the sheets on inside out. Did they even give us clean sheets? The new towels we got were ALL STAINED. luckily we didn't have bed bugs so that was at least good. We didn't even bother with the breakfast. The water pressure in the shower is atrocious and the shampoo bottle wasn't even new, it was half used. I can't believe that their housekeeping wouldn't even change that out. I get conservation but damn that's nasty. At least the soap was new in a closed unopened "bag". The air conditioner was slow to work and took forever to cool off the room. We needed to go over to Walmart right down the road and get a fan to help circulate. I imagine we'll need to go over there for other items that should have been in the room and weren't. Thankfully the room has a decent sized fridge and has an old microwave. AND THE SHEETS AND BLANKETS WERE CLEAN. Silver lining? Tiny TV Ti bathroom Shitty AC unit

The free wifi might have worked had I tried it in the lobby, but in the room it was a weak, sporadic unusable single bar at best.

My husband and I stayed there while on our trip home from visiting my parents. We decided to stay in a cheap motel being that we already spent enough money on our trip. Cheap is exactly what we got. We atleast would have expected warm water, haha, not. The customer service was absolutely horrible. The room was dusty and cold. The heater did not heat up the whole small room. So, we tried going to sleep cause we were so tired. After about 4 hours we both woke up with headaches. We decided that we would both take showers, get some breakfast and get back on our way. Well, to our suprise, there was NO hot water. We were very upset. My husband went and rang the bell in the office for the attendant to come out, so we could give the key back. The person took forever to come up to the desk. When he told her of the problems. She said and I quote, "No refund, you leave now." Then she walked out of the office and into the back room. So, we reported them to the BBB and after 2 attempts from them, we got a response that simply stated, "we are sorry, we had some issues with the hot water and the heating." I guess telling your guests about that when they check in, is too much. Anyway, we wrote back to the BBB telling them that an apology was not enough and that we think we deserve a refund. So, one week later, we recieved a check in the mail. I honestly would not tell my enemy to stay in this place. Thanks for reading.
