Met with with a very insensitive and combative front desk Manager while checking out. We had raised the issue of invasion of Privacy for one of the two rooms we had booked and some of the belongings were thrown in the trash as the staff thought we had checked out without confirming with us. The manager instead of having a normal conversation was very defensive and combative and asked us to produce receipts of the stuff that was trashed. Would not recommend this property again just because of the front desk manager

We choose our hotels based on location, price, and free breakfast. We chose this hotel because it had free breakfast with pancakes, but the pancake machine was out of order when we were there. Other than that, our stay was OK.

At first we were given a room directly opposite the elevator. We told the person at the desk that we were concerned that it would be too noisy. He said no problem and gave us another room that was clear at the end of the hall. It was perfect, and very quiet! That is why the next time we are in Mundelein to visit our son, we will probably stay at the same Holiday Inn Express.
