"0"^^ . . . "Worst Western - Far from Paradise\n\nStayed here on U of I, Fathers Weekend 2011. \n\nIt was the only hotel with availability. You snooze - you lose.\n\nThis is a pet friendly hotel which is a bonus because we were able to our bring dog. However, we didn't expect to be greeted by the hotel's own pets: cockroaches. No joke. It's what we saw when we immediately walked in the room. We would have left, but there were no other hotels available. \n\nThe room was one of those open-to-the-outdoors type of hotels. So, you have to deal with the headlights, noise and weather. \n\nThe heater in our room made all sorts of noises and every time it cycled-on, it woke us up. \n\nThere was a bonus in the tub... when you took a shower, you also got a bath because the tub drained very slowly. This is very handy if you want to soak your ankles when you shower. Of course, the sewer smell from the vent was a little off-putting. \n\nUnfortunately we forgot some items in the room... and they were not recovered. Apparently they must have thought our clothes would look better on them than us. Seriously, I left a $400 Mountain Hardwear jack and my wife's winter jacket in the closet when we checked out. We called the next day... no signs of them. I consider that theft. \n\nI would rather sleep in my car that stay here again. I would give it negative stars if I could. \n\nSorry Mr. Patel - I won't be staying at your hotel ever again."^^ . "2011-11-20T00:00:00"^^ . "1"^^ . "1"^^ . "5"^^ . .
