Stay Inn Lombard

This review is based on the price point for this location. I would give a 4.5 star if possible. Similar to other chains in this star range (Hampton, La Quinta, etc). Room was purchased through
. Came in third of the price of large hotel within a block. Staff were friendly. Hotel was clean, quiet, and felt safe arriving in the evening. Simple furnishings and amenities but since I didn’t travel to Lombard to sit in my hotel it works perfectly. If you are attending convention at center by the mall or shopping then this is an excellent location. Close enough to head back to room for lunch and free parking.
Only grabbed yogurt for breakfast due to time but it appeared well stocked and appetizing. Only downside was my shower head needed changing. One stream of water which took a bit of maneuvering to use but not a deal breaker.
Tips: Tiny fridge in room was nice for bringing a few items. Only pepsi in vending machines. Microwave in main floor lounge. Free Wi-​Fi worked well in room.

Cheap and nice, clean sheets, great service, waiting to try the breakfast in the morning and I know it’s going to be good.
Lots of parking spaces. Quiet.
Just wish the fitness center could hold some free weights and a bench but they don’t seem to have space for that… But that’s not a big deal at all.
Easy to find, near Mobile which has the cheapest gas prices around town.
Overall very good experience, will come back if I pass by again.
For breakfast, they have scrambled eggs, bacon, 4 kinds of cereal, oatmeal, pancakes/​waffles, yogurts, apples and bananas, coffee/​fruit juice, pastries and breads.

Great place to stay always clean. Friendly staff. When i walk in the door they always remember my name. Because I’m a repeat customer. Folks this place has 4 star quality. if you travel as much as I do. You can’t get a hotel at this price for the quality. location is also great.

Nice place, good price and decent room.
Breakfast nice, decent size eating area.
Quiet place, fridge in room.

Decent place, bed was ok comfort wise. Lots of places to eat around it. They have a tie with American Taxi which is Cheapest to use I believe

Great hotel. More than expected for the very reasonable price I paid. Stayed for 4 nights 10÷7−10÷11 2015. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. Room was clean. Refigerator in room for all my leftover pizza. Used to be a Hampton Inn so the infrastructure was already in place for a decent place to stay. Breakfast served daily and the very nice girl made sure that waffle iron was working and everything was stocked. Definately would stay here again. Very close proximity to Yorktown Mall.

I had a great 2 night stay during a church conference this weekend. The staff was very polite and and accommodating. They even straightened up my room half way into my stay.
The breakfast was good, especially the eggs, gravy, and sausage links.
The bed was comfy and the pillows were fluffy.
Everything was basic, clean, and just what I needed.

What a nice and inexpensive hotel !!! Pleasure to stay at. Rooms are spacious, bed super comfy with soft, white linen. Nicely furnished, with extra sofa to sit on. Included free continental breakfast with eggs and sausage, not bad. The area around the hotel seems super quiet, with shopping malls very close by. If we ever visit Chicago and need to stay at the hotel, this one will be it ! Make sure you reserve your room early, because they are going fast !!!

Very clean. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was a pretty normal continental style. Just ok. Pretty good for the price.

Meh. For the price and what it is — it’s OK. It served the purpose of a place to bathe and sleep. The staff was friendly. If you’re looking for an upscale place to stay, this is not it.
Other people mentioned a shuttle, but that was never mentioned to us. That would have been helpful since taxi’s were hard to come by in the area.

Basic hotel, nothing fancy but was overall satisfied with my stay. Check in was smooth and quick. King size bed was large and comfortable. Room also had a small couch in it. Shower had lots of pressure settings. I originally booked this hotel because I read that it had shuttle service anywhere within 5 miles. However, when I called to confirm this I was told it only runs on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday mornings. So I just took Über instead to and from my destination. The morning continental breakfast included cereal, bagels, and scrambled eggs. I booked on
and saved some money.
Just a couple of negatives: shuttle didn’t run on a Saturday night. Towels in bathroom were a little rough.

I stayed here back in October when I was visiting the area for a conference. As expected the hotel is basic, nothing fancy. Honestly, the rooms could use some updating, something more contemporary, but I guess they would probably have to raise their rates for that. Overall, the rooms and communal areas (lobby, hallways) were all clean and the staff was friendly. I especially liked the three-​sided mirror and the bright lights in the bathroom in my room (this made me realize I need to get back in the gym, haha!!!) The beds were plush and comfortable. My only complaints about the room was that the walls were thin (of course) and there was a refrigerator but not a microwave! My $ 25 deep dish pizza that ordered went to waste! The hot breakfast buffet every morning was a nice perk. There weren’t too many healthy choices, mostly food high in carbs, but it served it’s purpose. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a basic hotel on a budget.
Oh, and without traffic it’s only about a 30 min. drive to downtown Chicago.

I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday. I booked through Hotwire & for the price I can’t complain. I called & extended our checkout time & Melissa was very helpful in doing so.
We checked in around 8:30pm & everything went smoothly. The room was basic, but again for the price, I can’t complain! We were informed there was a continental breakfast in the morning, which I didn’t expect.
Overall, the staff were friendly, room was clean, breakfast was a pleasant surprise!

I Stayed here for 3 nights with the fiancé while visiting Chicago last month. We didn’t exactly pick the Stay Inn as it was our Hotwire secret rate but we were happy with the results.
After a delayed flight into Midway we did not make it to the hotel until around midnight. The guy behind the counter was especially nice and we enjoyed some banter while he checked us in. Our room was on the second floor and decent sized with a flat screen TV. I think that my fiancé had heard somewhere that it used to be a Hampton Inn. My only complaint with it was that it seemed to have a smell in it. We didn’t say anything and over the course of the 3 days that we were there it seemed to dissipate. Our room also came with a free continental breakfast in the morning. I don’t think it was that great but for free I shouldn’t really complain. It had a waffle maker, some eggs, bagels, bread, cereal, juices and yogurt that I can remember. The only item I will complain about is the coffee which both my fiancé and I got rid of since it had almost no taste to it.
The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. The price that we received here was incredible for the Chicago area, especially with the breakfast, and you easily do far worse for a steeper price.

Pros:
*Free parking
*Free breakfast
*Free Wi-​Fi
*Water in the shower was hot & had good pressure
*Friendly and pleasant staff
*Government discounts
Cons:
*Comforter had seen better days (as I told my boyfriend when I first checked in «My bed looks like it is stuffed with pine cones»; basically the filling was displaced and clumped up unevenly)
*Bathroom could use some fixing up: There were some relatively minor stains & cracks in the tub, which weren’t a huge deal by themselves. However, there were some bigger cracks in the wall where the shower curtain was mounted that made it look like the pole was going to fall down at any second, maybe taking part of the wall with it. Maybe because of that (or maybe for some other reason), the curtain rod sagged in the middle, which made the curtain slide down to the middle. No big deal if you are alone, but it did make the shower a little drafty and the bathroom got a bit wet from it.
Taking all of the pros and cons into account, I would stay here again if needed. I got a pretty good value for the price, the workers were friendly, and the cons were relatively minor.

I had a interview at Midwestern University for their pharmacy school. They gave us a list of hotels to stay in and I’m so happy that I chose this hotel. The staff were EXTREMELY friendly. The hotel was clean and well lit. They have an awesome complimentary shuttle service that took me to my interview at the school. It was only a 10 minute shuttle ride to the school. My mother and I went next door to the Greek Islands restaurant to eat. It was okay. I really liked the fact that they have a complimentary hot breakfast. =) I was able to get some brain food before my interview. The lobby is very welcoming and was where my mother waited for me after check-​out until 1:00pm.
If you’re coming for a visit to Midwestern U, you should definitely look into this hotel.

LOVE THIS PLACE! Stayed here for an interview at Midwestern University. I have nothing more than great words for this cute little place!!! Downer’s grove is a beautiful suburban city, with malls very close by. This hotel had really friendly/​helpful staff!
Pros:
–Complimentary breakfast (all the coffee you want)
–Very friendly staff!
–Free shuttle ride within a 5 mile radius (I used it to and from my interview, to the nearby mall, to restaurants)
–Giordano’s not too far and delivers! (Mmmmm pizza!)
Cons:
None!!!

Wow!
Stayed here 4 nights and loved it. Staff were friendly and cheerful, too.
Stayed in a first floor room and found everything about the facility nice, clean, and convenient. Everything you would expect! (Though there was NOT a fridge in my room. :(
The complimentary breakfast is AMAZING. No coffee and doughnuts «continental breakfast» — we’re talking fresh fruit, waffle machine, french toast, eggs, sausage, etc. !
Would definitely stay here again!
Bön Voyage!

This is a much smaller hotel compared to the Westin down the street. It is 4 levels, but does include a gym and free continental breakfast everyday for guests from 6am-​10pm. The rooms are clean, beds comfy with both medium and soft pillows. They have all the amenities of high end hotels and have a modern décor. The breakfast included tea, coffee, juice, fresh pineapple, apples, fresh oranges and grapefruit peeled and sectioned– loved that!, muffins, pastries, french toast, waffle griddle, bacon and scrambled eggs w cheese, toast, bagels, cream cheese. Coffee and tea are available 24 hrs. They don’t have a shuttle but have coupons for local taxis which are a good deal. The Westin shuttle will also come around, but you have to go to the Westin for that. Oh and free wi-​fi!
