Holiday Homes in Machesney Park

"Overall, our stay was exactly what we needed. Family (14 total) stayed overnight for a wedding and basically needed a place to change and sleep. More importantly, the kids wanted a pool to swim. The location, pool and breakfast in the mornings were perfect. Rooms were basic but comfortable. Everyone raved about the black out blinds. Traveling, we aways forget or need something, and Walmart was right across the street among the myriads of fast food places including DD and Starbucks and even a Menards. The greatest strength of this hotel IMO was the staff. They are OUTSTANDING. I had to call numerous times to confirm, change and cancel reservations due to sick children, adding rooms, etc. It all was handled with friendliness and ease. They were very accommodating in early check-ins and late check-outs. We travel a lot. This AmericInn was the least fancy and not upgraded as others. I think it was a Motel 8 prior, but the staff made it a great experience, plus it was economical for our entire family. The Wi-fi is a little touchy and I needed to call down to get password. If I really needed it, I would have investigated it further. It initially said I had to pay unless I signed up for some points thing. Ummm no. There is only one vending machine on the first floor and ice machine was not working. But again, there is a decent size mini fridge (not college dorm size) and microwave in room."

"My wife and I were travelling from Alberta to Ontario, on day 3 of a multi-day drive. This was the third hotel that we booked through Expedia, with the previous two being amazing. We arrived at around 8 PM local time - tired from an almost 10-hour drive from North Dakota. As we walked in, we noticed immediately that the hotel was dated and the air quality was poor. We checked in with the help of the hotel's general manager (Mr. Patel), it was swift. We were given a room in the third floor, and although the initial vibes were not good, we decided to proceed. As we exited the elevator, we noticed that the hallway carpeting was heavily stained in some sections. We walked in the room and I went straight to the bathroom. I noticed the foul smell of urine right away. The room was very dated and overall, was not in good condition. One section of a wall had a hole, and the floor looked filthy. The air quality in the room left nothing to be desired, which may have been caused by cigarette smoke. We checked out about an hour later, as soon as we secured accommodation with another hotel. We turned the card over to Mr. Patel, who did not seem surprised. Be warned, the photos shared by hotel management are far from reality. We wasted $115 on this booking. Not as advertised!!!"

"The room is clean and the staff is friendly."

"Room was clean and comfortable. Parking was good. Breakfast was not what I expected, cold cereal and waffles was the main breakfast. "

"Unless you count yogurt, breakfast had no protein...no eggs, no meat. Instant coffee in buffet just as bad as packets in the room. Otis Spunkmeyer muffins. Only fresh fruit was oranges. Heard one older gentleman say, "they couldn't even throw me a sausage!" The sink faucet in room need two hands and a hard pull to turn on. Loose riser on second floor riser significant safety hazard. Upside, room was very clean."

"Everything was great!"

"breakfast was fine and the staff member was fast, cheerful, and efficient!! "

"Clean Room, parking good. Wish shuttle service was available "

"Room was clean and one night stay was fine, but this is definitely not a holiday inn or hilton hotel and I don’t think i’d want to spend a week here. Beds were ok and there is a full size refrigerator in the room, but that’s about it. No ice maker in entire hotel, no shampoo or kleenex in the room, but it was also much cheaper than any of the other hotels in the area during this time, so it depends what you’re looking for. Staff was nice and hotel was very clean. "
