I was passing through as a truck driver. Having truck parking was a plus. The hotel is close to everything walking distance. The hotel and rooms are clean. The manager mirjana and rose were accommodating and professional. If your in town this is the place to stay!
You haveca pleasant and quiet hotel. You staff and front desk is the best in guest services. Thank you kindly for my stay here! I slept so good. Like baby. The coffee and train the am. So nice . I will stay again. Thank you Motel 6 ~ prospect Heights! "Smiles all around!"
Room was clean and all heat and water worked well. Counter help very apathetic. Probably interrupted her TV show in the backroom. If you don't like dealing with customers, find another job.
Our room, on the first floor, king bed, was wonderfully spacious. Traveling with a German Shepherd is often challenging - unloading the car, taking the dog out, loading the car; so the first floor location made everything much easier. The desk clerks were personable - friendly and helpful. Definitely a great stay!
The location was great. The rooms were very roomy and clean. This was by far the best Motel 6 we have stayed in. It was comparable to the over priced big name hotels. If we come back to Chicago area, we will definitely stay here, again.
Me and my family stop by and get a great rate for a motel that has 6 star staff and 5 star everything else. Mirjana, Ali, Mohammed, Sam, and Rose the overnight girl are all great people who make us feel at home. It's like they want to be sure we get our money's worth! The truly Care, they have helped when confused and walked us through. The cleaning staff is also the best, they try hard not to disturb you but when you are up they make the room spotless. I left behind a bag with gold chains and a diamond ring. 2 hours later I raced back to the hotel to be given my bag by the same lady who cleaned my room. I know all their names by heart because I have had to come up here for work many times while I live in Chicago. But it's always a delight to see my favorite hotel and staff.....the Erik Zalkus family
I have stayed at Motel 6 in Prospect Heights several times, and every time I interact with Rose, it’s a great experience. She is always welcoming, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Rose goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel comfortable and well taken care of. Her friendly attitude and consistent excellent service are a big reason I keep coming back. Thank you, Rose, for always making my stays enjoyable!
By far the best value for money we have come across. We have stayed here for an extended amount of time and the staff have been great. Rooms are basic as you would expect but have always been well cleaned. My only critique would be that some of the rooms have a strong mold smell that should likely be taken off the market until they have been remedied. Great budget spot. Nice staff
