It has a strong public score of 4.5/5 from 1,944 reviews, reflecting generally positive guest feedback. The property is positioned for travelers who want highway access while staying within reach of Aurora and Naperville-area attractions.
Location
The hotel sits at 2424 W Sullivan Rd, Aurora, IL 60506—about 5 miles west of downtown Aurora and near the Hollywood Casino and Paramount Theater area. It’s about 4 miles from Aurora University and roughly 6 miles from the Chicago Premium Outlets.

Rooms
Rooms are described as classic in style and include practical in-room conveniences such as a minifridge, microwave, work desk, cable TV, and free Wi-Fi. Family-friendly policies include kids 19 and under staying free with an adult. These features make it suitable for both short stays and extended weekends where basic self-service food storage/heating helps.
Dining
An on-site casual American restaurant and bar serves breakfast and dinner. A notable family perk is that kids 12 and under eat free, which can reduce meal costs for parents traveling with children. On-site dining is helpful for guests who prefer not to drive after arriving or returning from local events.
Amenities & Recreation
Key facilities include an indoor pool, a 24-hour gym, a business center, and a meeting room. Free parking supports guests arriving by car, which is typical for this suburban, expressway-adjacent area. (Other amenities are not documented in the provided sources.)
Best for
This hotel fits road-trippers and suburban-area visitors who want quick access to I-88, free parking, and an on-site restaurant for simple logistics. It also suits families thanks to the indoor pool plus the “kids stay free” and “kids eat free” policies, and business travelers who value a 24-hour gym, business center, and meeting room. Its location is convenient for Aurora/Naperville-area outings and events without needing a downtown Chicago hotel.
Travel tips
If you’re planning a Chicago day trip, consider driving to the Aurora train station (about 6 miles away) and taking the 50–80 minute ride into the city. For local activities close to the hotel, Slick City Action Park is nearby (about 1.5 km away) and Blackberry Farm is a short drive (about 2.6 km away). With the hotel located just south of I-88, having a car is practical for reaching attractions such as Chicago Premium Outlets (about 6 miles) and area museums and parks.
