Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Manteno, IL

Disappointed Was greeted by a very stale odor when entering the building. The front desk staff were friendly and welcoming. We were given a handicapped room, not needed. The room also had a very stale odor. Our stay was for 4 days and we never received any house keeping, no clean towels, trash not emptied, had to ask for toilet paper and tissues. Indoor pool had a sign "out of order". The breakfast was good and staff kept it well stocked.

I always plan on staying here when I am in the area. Clean and Reasonably priced. I have stayed here several times before and it is always clean and comfortable. I do several swap meets in the area in the summer and fall and always plan to stay here. Manteno is a nice town with excellent restaurants. It is convenient and just off the highway.

Nice enough We stayed here last weekend for three nights visiting family. Nothing fancy, but our room was clean and we didn't have any complaints. Breakfast was good enough and the employee was keeping it stocked and cleaned (unlike two years ago when it was a disaster area). We will stay here again next time we are in town.

Friendly staff, Spacious room, Free continental breakfast Greeted by a friendly staff member, easy check in, elevator. Room was spacious, king size bed, sofa, easy chair, desk w chair and USB outlet, TV remote w sleep timer, easily programmable air temp, lamps had one outlet on base, hair dryer in bathroom on wall, two separate outlets in bathroom, 3 mirrors in room, mini bar area w tall counter, mini fridge, microwave, small coffeemaker, storage cabinet. Ironing board. Bed was a nice firmness, blankets nice weight, w 4 pillows that were maybe a bit too squishable Breakfast was 6:30-9:30 an today w self made waffles, potatoes, cheesy bagel bite, juice machine - simple basics. Affordable and clean.

Disgusting hotel... Will NOT stay here again. Checked in at front desk. Issue #1 -- I asked the lady where she would recommend eating. She gave me the name of a place. Ok... so, how are their prices? Her answer... "I have no idea, I never pay for food there." Hm... curious as to why the establishment is comping all her meals. "Buying" recommendations? Just thought it was strange. -- Issue #2 -- I went up to room. It STUNK BADLY of "dog" and urine. I turned on the fan & left to go eat. Thought maybe it would be better when I returned. Nope -- if anything it was worse. (side issue... I looked at online menu & reviews of restaurant she recommended. Very pricy & horrid reviews. Ate elsewhere.) Went back down to desk. -- Issue #3 -- She changed my room. Said it "should" be okay because they had just cleaned the carpet. Upon entering, it smelled badly of cleaning chemicals. Touched the carpet and it was SOPPING wet! I guess "just cleaned" meant like within the last two hours! So... back downstairs.... -- Issue #4 -- She changed my room again. Now on third room. It also smelled like "dog" but less than first room and I was getting very tired by this point. Decided to just live with it for the night. -- Issue #5 -- Sat down at desk to take off my shoes & chair leg got caught in tangle of wires under desk. Maybe a zip tie would be helpful! -- Issue #6 -- Okay... off to the shower. Well... there is supposed to be a hair dryer in the room. Welllll.... maybe there "used" to be. Now there are only holes in the wall! -- Issue #7 -- Linens are worn out! Blankets need to be replaced. Filling in blanket is bunched up and "lumpy". -- Issue #8 -- I didn't stay for breakfast. I had enough of this property. Frankly was afraid of what cleanliness issues I may encounter. Choice Hotels just purchased the Country Inn properties... Choice needs to address this property & bring it up to standards. Absolutely will NOT stay here again!
