OYO Hotel at Chicago Rockford International Airport, IL

Front desk staff has been working in the industry more than a decade. They're extremely knowledgeable about their property and each and every room they have available. That said, they have the experience to professionally deal with any and all issues that could arise during your stay. This is a budget motel, folks. It once was a thriving 100+ room property, but covid and other factors destroyed the industry for over a year and this one is struggling to stick around. I'm not saying this as a negative thing - it's the exact opposite. They try their best and need to keep every customer a happy and repeat customer, so look past the imperfections and realize how affordable you're able to stay here, and keep that in mind if you have any issues arise in your room. In particular I escaped the Xmas polar vortex living in vehicle (by choice - temporary) by staying here 5 nights. Their pipes froze on a few rooms including mine. I had PF membership and used it and just took it up w front desk at checkout. I knew it affected more than me and not much could be done. They offered freely to comp a future night or two, rather than demanding my money back thru online service. They're a small business trying to stay in business, and they have better staff than you'll get at an expensive hotel. Realize you're at a budget motel, know there will sometimes be problems, and simply be reasonable about it - they'll make it right, and in my case, without even asking. I have stayed here about 15 times and will stay again despite the last experience. I also lived in 7 states this year and worked hotel mgmt in the Dells for 4 years. I never write reviews, this is my first, hope it helps you make your decision.

rooms was nice n clean

Everything

It was very close to the airport, not too far from places that you could eat. It was located in a very nice area, 5 to 10 minutes from the Chicago-Rockford Airport. Especially right off highway 39.
