Best Western Oglesby Inn

Nice place! The staff were nice and property was clean. We booked a pet friendly room. The first room they gave us smelled musty and wet and kinda like cigarettes. I told them and they gave us another room which was totally fine and smelled clean. Breakfast was fine too. There was already American cheese on all the eggs at breakfast.

The staff was pleasantly friendly, especially the gal working the breakfast room Saturday morning. The waffles are yummy & the coffee was good. The shower head was great, and the water was softened. The beds & pillows were comfortable. The room has a good sized fridge, and a full size microwave. We didn't swim, but the pool looked very clean & well kept. The parking was plentiful, spacious and easily accessible. The only negative comment is that our room, and everything in it, had a very damp feeling. That would not stop us from recommending this hotel, and we will definitely stay here again, as we pass through.

We been to this location since 2014 off & on throughout the years. We were just there in mid June 2022. Front desk always seems so nice and helpful. This is a GOOD mid range hotel because there is somethings I wish they would improve. The super hard mattress was a painful nightmare. (I've camped on softer ground in a tent.) The chair was worn out in our room. (It happens). The tub & shower was just horrible for me. I am 5'4" the shower head was still too high for me to change the settings on even standing on the side of the tub. Why do they still have tubs in hotels? To make matters worse for me, the tub had no safety hand rails AND the tub popped & moved under your weight. Which kept making me dizzy. The room (second floor), otherwise was nice. The decor had been updated since 2014 - Loved their artwork! The other issue I had with this visit was, the breakfast. We checked in on a Thursday afternoon, so Friday they were out of hot foods (only thing was eggs). The fruit & orange juice were out also. I was a little taken back by their lack of options. Otherwise you could eat a nasty microwave breakfast sandwich they offered. (I fully understand times are harder these days, for everyone, but If I wanted a nasty microwave breakfast I would have brought it.) On Saturday & Sunday they added bacon, orange juice, and fruit to the breakfast. Well that was better, BUT what happened to the biscuits & gravy??? Plus, why do weekday visitors get less options? That truly disappointed me! The pool was okay but the trash people would pull out of it & place it on the side, sat there until we left Sunday afternoon, so are they really checking it all the way around the pool. Anytime someone had asked them for any towels or when the hot tub timer stopped working they fixed it super fast. The grout around the pool area need to be repaired soon because there are gaps developing that could become dangerous. I do love this place. The workers seem so nice. I want to give them 5 stars, but I have to be honest. It is hard when key areas need improvement. Believe me if I go back & things are better, I will change my score. As of right now, this is a solid 4 star hotel. Please don't pass them up without giving them a chance! This is my go-to hotel when I am visiting out there. Which I love, and will be back again. The pandemic & our government truly messed things up for many hard working people. My little growl shouldn't stop you from choosing here. My issues with the bathroom had no effect on my family, it was my issue alone. Maybe I just need to request the handicap room for now on since I have my own problems, to begin with & thr movement of the tub made it worse.

We only stayed one night but we had a very nice stay. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable and had everything we needed. The best part was the staff. They were very nice and helpful. Would definitely stay there again!
