5 stars to the stafff at Extended Stay @ Vernon Hills - I've stayed here multiple times since the beginning of 2013 and it is "home away from home". I've never had a problem here or a concern. The staff is helpful and so friendly.

The first thing I noticed about this hotel when I arrived is that there is no typical entryway. I circled the whole building before I figured out where the main door was. There is no typical overhang to park under, just an entrance, and you have to find a parking spot somewhere in the parking lot just to check in.... More

If you are a business traveler, stay away from this property. It is a transient hotel! I tried to stay here because of a bad storm, and despite negative reviews reluctantly booked a room. The staff was pleasant, but I requested a high floor away from the elevator. I recieved a room on the second floor, which upon entering at... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay. I was disheartened to read your comments about the noise and heater malfunction, which prompted you to eventually check-out of the hotel.

We are long term guest of this hotel. All of the staff here are very friendly and very accommodating. It's clean, pretty quiet, located in a good spot close to shopping and eating. They ALL help to make my husband and I feel at home.

Alert, responsive and very genuine. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. They helped with my travel arrangements and went above and beyond the call to help me navigate my way around a new place. Even whole under renovation they made my stay very comfortable

Thank you for your gracious comments about the ESA Vernon Hills. I was so happy to hear how helpful the staff was. Please come back and see us when our renovation is complete in December. We will have a new bedding package and flat screen televisions at that time. More

The Extended stay is the same as any other. It's clean, pretty quiet, located in a good spot close to shopping and eating. The hotel is undergoing renovation on the top floor at this time, but there is no sign of this at all. It was a good place to stay.

The only reason I'm here is because i bidded on priceline. The lobby is the nicest area. The rooms smell like pee/smoke.
