We selected this property because it was listed as “Pet Friendly.” When I went to pre check in, it explicitly stated that it was in fact NOT pet friendly. This significantly impacted our weekend plans. The pool was extremely dirty. Our room was not clean. The ice machine was not working and they did not have enough towels for our family. The towels we did have were stained.

Filthy, Rude, and Unsafe - Never Again

Filthy, Rude, and Unsafe – Never Again We booked this hotel expecting a clean, no-smoking stay, but what we got was disgusting. The first room reeked of cigarettes, despite being non-smoking. The sheers on the windows were shredded, the room was filthy, and the air was musty. The front desk clerk moved us to another room, but it was just as nasty—again reeking of smoke once we turned on the A/C. The bed had EIGHT layers of mattress covers, clearly trying to hide huge brown and yellow stains. It was disturbing and unhygienic. To make things worse, the swimming pool was green and clearly hadn’t been cleaned in ages. When I returned to the front desk to express my concerns, the man told me not to complain where others could hear, and instructed me to go around to the back. Then he eavesdropped on my call with Hotels.com and butted in. Instead of helping us, he told us to leave the hotel! We were left with nowhere to stay for two nights but our car, and we had traveled all the way from Arizona. This was absolutely unacceptable and traumatic. The hotel was unsanitary, the staff unprofessional, and the treatment we received was outrageous. We deserve a full refund. Avoid Baymont in Harvard, IL at all costs!

The room was clean. The light between beds did not turn on, it was unplugged. The toilet was clogged and didn’t flush well. Not enough towels for 3 guests. Nobody at the desk. Chipmunk running around the indoor pool. Ice machine broken. Parking lot with gravel, debris, huge hole from some kind of half done electrical project. Outside doors have a key card reader for security but the doors were unlocked. The staff was helpful. The biggest issue was the intense pungent body odor of one of the staff. The man passed in the hall and I had to hold my breath because the stench was so strong. I don’t know if he had a medical problem or was opposed to bathing, but I pitied him because he seemed unaware of how offensive the foul penetrating odor permeated the air. It still stank after he exited the hallway. I hope someone can gently encourage him to learn and practice normal hygiene. Someone in contact with the public should bathe and wash his clothes on a regular basis. I really feel sorry for the guy since he seemed unaware just how strong he stank and was oblivious to how that affects guests.

Disliked: Amenities
We got the suite and the hot tub had not been cleaned from previous people. It had hair and other things on the bottom. They did not have enough shampoo and conditioner, our key didn't work after 10am. The security system is not there. Anyone can get into the hotel even without the key card. We asked for extra pillows for my son as they didn't have any for the pull out bed. The ac did not work. The positive is the windows open all the way up, and the room we were I. Had a balcony off the pool. Btw. The water in the pool was way to cold.

Absolute joke of a continental breakfast, especially as it was a busy Saturday. Nothing but stale bread items, the waffle press and cereal. No fruit, no eggs or meat(powdered looking eggs were finally put out around 8am)and not even a real toaster. There was just a single toaster oven for the entire place. Dont plan on eating
