Best Hotels near Calumet City Historical Society, Calumet City

I travel over 100 days a year for my job and stay exclusively in Wyndham properties, and write reviews for most. The good: parking lot was clean and well lit on arrival. I reserved through the Wyndham app, so check in went smoothly. My room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and pillows. Laminate flooring throughput the room. Updated fixtures with plenty of plug-ins. Most of the stated amenities were in place, the in room coffee and small refrigerator, but no microwave for some reason. The hotel does have 2 luggage carts. My air conditioner/heater worked quite well. There is a drink machine and snack machine near the lobby. The not-so-good: the staff was non-existent, nobody at the front desk the three or four times I checked. The TV had only 13 channels, most were locals Only one coffee cup for the in-room coffee. I checked out early so i can't comment on the breakfast. I'd stay here again if needed for work, but I'd bring some movies to watch.

It has been almost a year since we were robbed in our hotel room. The so-called “head of security” and “head surveillance”has done an excellent job ignoring every phone call and voicemail since that day and has lied repeatedly about getting back to us. When I say, LIED REPEATEDLY, he has LIED REPEATEDLY. His tone is so pompous and arrogant and he has all but excused the employee(s) who entered our room and stole our money and valuables. We were still guests there but housekeeping emptied our ENTIRE room. Not 1 sock, shoe, or shirt that was in the closet made it down to their lost and found since they mistakenly assumed we had checked out when in reality we had 2 days left. Everything in our room was “removed” including money and other valuables. The security on staff continued to laugh in our face. The head of surveillance condoned what happened saying “can’t prove it so sorry about that”. The hotel management on duty was useless. Don’t even risk it.

Make sure you tell the front desk that you want your room cleaned every day or they will say they don't have the staff to clean and wont' clean your room. They will have you bring your soiled towels to the front desk to get clean towels if you don't have them clean your room every day. It's ridiculous that for the amount you pay that they don't want to clean your room every day. They blame it on COViD. When you tell them they will clean your room and after that it was GREAT. The staff is extremely helpful and pleasant. From the front desk to the Maintenance personnel they are all helpful and professional. The staff is wonderful and the rooms are nice, clean, and cool in the summer. This was my 3rd stay at this location and the first time they didn't clean my room unless I asked..

It was clean. That's the main thing. The toilet was one of those really short ones and the bathroom door hit the toilet and wouldn't open all the way. The double beds were not queens. They weren't even full. Barely wider than a twin, it was rough sleeping with kids. One of the beds was broke and leaned a little. We dropped an ink pen and looked under the bed for it. Wasn't clean under there. Skittles and paper and who knows. We didn't explore. Got our pen and left it alone. No breakfast or pool. City still concerned about Covid. Can't blame the hotel.

A beautiful & well cared for hotel! Staff was amazing the entire stay! Remembered my name and room number when using guest resources! Definitely looking forward to coming back!!

This is our go-to motel when staying in Northwest Indiana. Welcoming lobby area where everything is spotless and tidy. Halls and vending areas were well maintained. Our room was very clean and refreshed daily during our week stay. A/C unit was one of the quietest we've experience in a long time. No grumbling and rumbling every time it turned on. Room lighting was good, towel and linens were more than nice, very good mattress and room seating. No complaints at all. Front desk was always friendly and helpful. Whenever we saw staff at the desk they always took time to smile and say hello. Jay took care of us at check-in and was extremely kind and outgoing, a great personality for this position. We met Tina taking care of the breakfast area and had a nice conversation with her, very personable. Breakfast always included hot items like eggs and sausage/bacon as well as a waffle maker. Plenty of fruit, cereal, yogurts, muffins and always presented well. Area is kept spotless. After driving 10 hours to get home to GA, my wife realized she left her prized make-up mirror behind in our room. She contacted Ash the next day who quickly confirmed the oversight on our part and was more than happy to box up the item and send it to our home. So extremely kind! I may be missing a few names (David and Kendall? and others) but everyone was so nice. This motel may not a fancy pool but it has everything one needs for a comfortable stay, the most important to us is being a kind, friendly staff, clean, comfortable accommodations and a nice breakfast to start the day. It's in a great area for restaurants and shopping, pretty much anything you need. Well lit parking area, always a safe feeling. Will stay here again in the future, high recommend you give them a try.

Well upon arrival the hotel clerk “Female Sam”, couldn’t mangage to check us in. We had 5 rooms booked and had an issue with one of the rooms, that because I booked with Booking.com. Sam had no idea what she was doing and simply left it to us to figure out by contacting booking, but as it did turn out it was an issue on the hotel part to resolve with booking.com. After about at least a hour it was definitely resolved between hotel and booking.com as I tried to tell Sam in the beginning. This girl had No skills what so ever to handle her job, which made a frustrating start to our 1 night there which we were trying to get to a 90th birthday party. The room was not bad, but BRING your own pillows for theirs are flat and useless. The noise through the night past midnight was continuous, screams banging on the walls and running down the hallways till at least 2AM. And the morning after we had to deal with what smelled of dirty diapers in the hallways to the elevator. So Good Luck, but never a choice hotel for again!!
