    The rest area attendant was really sweet and the restrooms were clean but they smelled terrible! I…read morecould smell the restrooms as soon as we entered the building. The attendant had travel bags with tons of travel magazines focused on Illinois and the surrounding states. We grabbed one to use in making our future travel plans!

    This is a nice clean rest area easy to get in and out of from the I-70 westbound towards St. Louis…read more It's on the Blue Star Memorial Highway. Blue Star Highways are a tribute to the Nations armed forces who served in World War II. There are nice flowers and it is attended to by the Garden Club of Illinois. Plenty of signs and in particular one says Illinois remembers POWs and MIAs. Very evident that, at least in concept, the sacrifices that servicemen and women make are important in the state of Illinois. However, in the past week our Nation has lost a number of lives as our military withdraws from Afghanistan. In fact it's been one of the largest single losses of service lives in many years. While this is a nicely manicured clean rest area, someone has neglected to lower the flag to half staff, a point which I brought up to a worker, extremely politely and respectfully, here at this rest area. It is this reason, this in attention to an extraordinarily important and significant detail, that I extend a one star rating to this otherwise very nice rest area.

    Very pleased with the choice of this Hampton Inn. We stopped here since we were done driving for…read morethe day and it was near a charging station. Pleasantly surprised at the quality of the accommodations which aren't always modernized in smaller towns. Bed was very comfortable and room was very clean and well maintained. Will stop here again on a trek to Chicago.

    There are ample restaurants around the hotels and a Starbucks right out the door you can walk to…read morewithout Crossing a road. We opted to go to a bar a couple of miles down the road (Gabby Goat) to watch a Packer game and came back to our room at half time as the game started at 7:20 and we were tired from driving all day. The lobby area was decorated beautifully for the Christmas holidays. As we came back from dinner we noticed 7 small decorated Christmas trees on a table. They were made by employees and guest were invited to vote on their favorite. There was also a cute present wrapping area. How fun. Super friendly staff. Our room was comfortable, quiet and clean. We had a standard king size rom that was roomy with a desk and side chair. The 40 inch tv to finish watching the game was awesome. My husband had some breakfast of sausage and potatoes and an orange to go. Standard breakfast fare. I was going to see if they had a grab and go bag as we checked out around 9 am but forgot. Starbucks chai tea from next door was going to have to do. We travel from WI to FL every year in December and Effingham has been a lunch stop. But we recently moved 3 hrs north so had our first overnight here and we plan on staying here each year going forward.
