The hotel was very clean. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was excellent! The only thing that took away from the stay was the noisiness of the other customers, but that is not at the fault of the hotel at all. We had a family of children next to us and several families with children staying above us that kept us up most of the night.

Who charges $20 an hour for early check in??? We arrived sooner than anticipated and we were charged $40 to get into our room. The room was ready so why the charge??? I feel like I was robbed. I will never stay there again.

I visit my son and his family every so often. They live in an adjacent town. This motel (Holiday Inn Express )in Zion is the cleanest and most well run facility in the area. Friendly staff and location to family make it work for me. I’ve stayed here a few times already and it remains a top notch motel.

Great hotel for Navy Graduation

Staff was amazing and very knowledgeable of the area. Felt very welcoming the second I stepped into the building. Breakfast was great. Hotel is located at a very convenient location. Supermarket, 2 dollar stores and restaurants just steps away. Naval base only a 18 minute drive. Couldn’t have been happier with this choice in North Chicago.

The bedding(sheet and duvet cover) were stained with what looked like blood. The bathroom wall hook was broke and fell off the wall. Toilet did not flush well (had to hold down handle to make toilet flush completely). Waffle machine did not work/broken at complimentary breakfast. Wish there had been the choice of plain eggs instead of both egg choices including added cheese and peppers. Prompt response by staff regarding complaints.
