Paradise Lodge, Winnetka

The room smelled, stains on the floor, dirty shower curtain with lots of soap stuck to the top of the shower, window in bathroom open with no screen, front window UNLOCKED (very unsafe feeling), people yelling until 4:00 a.m., had to request towels in the morning and they asked if I would come and get them - need I say more? If I could give cleanlieness a negative it would be posted. And was that a bullet proff glass at the front window?

I made reservations two days before my stay for a single for three days. When I checked in, I was put into a double because there was not any singles available. (Isn't that why I made reservations?) The FIRST thing I noticed when I was heading to my room was that most of the occupants are actually tenants. Once I was in my room, the first thing I noticed was the bubblegum stuck to the wall next to the bed. Yuck! The bedding was clean but had nasty stains. The pool/ spa room was disgusting, there was candies all over the floor sitting in stagnant water, and the sprinkler system was leaking from the ceiling which was cracked and about to start falling in a couple of places. The third night of my stay was extremely uncomfortable. There was two police cars that arrived with sirens, and one of the tenants had aloud motorcycle that came and went multiple times. that did not make for a restful evening. The wireless internet connection is sporadic at best. My connection was bumped at least once an hour. All in all, if you can't find anywhere else, this place is better than nothing. Next time I get a hotel in this area, I'm definitely going to Motel 6.

I like the price. The price on the this site is including tax. I like the service and the clean bathroom. I really enjoyed my stay.
