Lexington Inn & Suites-Elgin, Elgin

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was small and dingy, resembling a $35 room more than a $70 one. However, the service was attentive in handling complaints, although a bit rude during check-in. The location was convenient, close to Chicago's attractions, but a bit hard to find. The dining experience was a letdown with limited options, and the breakfast area was not well-maintained. Despite some flaws, the hotel had its merits, warranting a debate about its overall value for money.

The hotel had recently completed room renovations, but some finishing touches were still needed. The rooms were dirty and had a strong wet dog smell, indicating poor cleanliness standards. The layout made finding the rooms confusing. However, the staff was helpful in guiding me. The location near the I90 highway was convenient but challenging to locate for some. The breakfast options were limited to muffins and cereal, and the dining area had poor ventilation. Although the hotel was undergoing updates, the service was a mix of confusion with deposit requests and friendly assistance.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms had a unique smell typical of such hotels but were spacious, equipped with a full-size fridge, and had easy access to a microwave. Conveniently located off the tollway, it was a decent choice. However, some noise from transient neighbors impacted my experience.

My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The rooms had debris, broken glass, and dysfunctional exterior doors upon my arrival, but the staff was quick to address the issues. The location was central, but a bit hard to find, and the dining experience left much to be desired despite the staff's efforts. Overall, it was an average experience with room for improvement.

I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms seemed newly completed but with some finishing touches needed, giving a budget hotel vibe despite the price. However, the value was reasonable considering the accommodations.
