We had 6 rooms…read moreand only one had a few stray strands of hair left over from previous guest in the bathroom tub. Otherwise, rooms were clean and impeccable. Service was fantastic. They initially gave me a room with no bed (likely the living room area for a suite) and they immediately fixed the problem. Once I got into my room, it was relaxing and wonderful. The king rooms have a walk in shower and the twin queen bed rooms have a bathtub/shower combo. I mention this as those traveling with kids might prefer the tub option. Every room has a mini fridge. Traveling with little ones here is nice because they can offer a microwave in your room if requested. Made a big difference for us traveling with a young one. The gym is small but they do have a peloton bike among other equipment like free weights and other cardio equipment. Complimentary breakfast has warm savory options like egg burritos both with and without meat. They also offer oatmeal, fruit, yogurt and bagels with plenty of refreshments. Parking is free and easy to find. There's also a complimentary shuttle to take you to places on campus if you have no car. There are also bikes at the hotel to get around. All in all, we enjoyed our stay as did our guests for graduation.

The ladies at the front desk were very nice. And this time I got to experience their meeting/conference space as the tornado warning went off the first night we were there. They have free breakfast but we didn't make it to it, except to grab some coffee. One thing this hotel could use is a water fountain with a filter. They are pretty common these days so don't think it would be a hard thing to put in. We had to keep buying water bottles from the front desk which felt wasteful. This hotel is downtown with plenty of things to walk to. The restaurant next door that does the room service for the hotel is great.

The general manager never smiled or greeted us after multiple opportunities and was heard…read morecomplaining that she "couldn't handle her day anymore, so she's gonna walk around with no shoes (whatever that means)." There was a bad culture there amongst all front desk workers never smiling or acknowledging to anyone even the first day of arrival. It's not like they were busy either. Breakfast was mediocre at best with a strange chaotic check in with just a hotel room # from a non smiling worker. The day they decided to put together something for Mother's Day weekend for students at Illinois, all personalities flipped. This place needs to learn about hospitality, which I thought was the main draw any customer wants. We will never stay here on business again and will tell everyone we know who decides to go here. Too bad I had to give one star.

As for me, switching it up a bit with Hilton properties in the area. The property is very clean, standard updates, and the best beds in the industry, which is another reason why Hilton properties are number one for me. No suites at this locations, upgrades will be a king room with a pull out couch, and standard amenities include a desk, television with HDMI connections, no USB, so if you travel with your own television choices like me (Amazon Firestick), it requires a wall plug-in. You will hear doors opening and closing all night, in the hallway, but the floors are solid, so don't sweat being on a lower level...

This certainly is not the worst hotel I've stayed at and there are plenty of reasons why you would…read morewant to stay at this Hampton Inn. However, I've been to a lot of other Hampton Inns and this one was definitely a much worse couple of experiences relatively speaking. First off, the good - the location. This hotel is in prime position. It's very walkable relative to campus, close to the hospital, restaurants are walkable, heck it even is close enough to my now favorite Chinese restaurant in town. It doesn't get too loud at night and getting onto the highway isn't too difficult. Additionally, I like their front lobby and breakfast. It is spacious, lots of room to work and have small meetings and the breakfast is solid, with plenty of options. Everything else is where the problems arise. To hotel itself feels a bit older and the furniture/rooms are a bit antiquated. Just little things like the shower tub not having proper water flow and the working desks being really small are what differentiate this hotel with others I've stayed at. My rooms have been a bit more cramped and uncomfortable. Additionally, I didn't find the pillows to be all that comfortable. Oh, and I can't forget to mention that I found bugs of the bed kind my first visit. At least the staff handled it efficiently for me! Lastly, my favorite hotel amenity, the gym, is simply not as built out as other hotel gyms. There are just three machines in there that again, feel really old, and no weight lifting equipment. For me, there are many reasons why I'd say this Hampton Inn is not my top pick, but depending on your situation, the location may just be worth it!

Although I have been to the Illini Union hundreds of times, this is my first (and probably last) time staying at the hotel.

I appreciate that parking is included in the price of the hotel. The rooms are an ok size. Just no bells and whistles. Location and convenience. Period. I will say the room was very clean.

But imagine my surprise when I checked the credit card bill to find we were charged $1215!!!! for those 2 nights. And I'm assuming the room was rented out again for that night!!
