Had a great time here, booked a room just to get away for a night. Rooms were clean and more modern than some other places ive stayed recently. A little on the small side but not uncomfortable. Location is close to some train tracks but if you sleep with a fan on like me you’d never know. Overall a good experience, wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!
Was a very comfortable motel, very clean and I would not hesitate to stay here again.
I love the Braidwood motel. They are good people and they care about their customers. I always stay there when I come back to see my family and friends!
Nice clean and quiet motel. Large refrigerator and microwave in room. We enjoyed our stay while there.
We had to have our floors redone in our home and needed to be close by as well as close to the kids school. We had heard from a lot of of the hunters that they stay there when they come into town so decided to give it a try. We were very very pleased. It was extremely clean. Our beds were comfortable. The bedding was very comfortable as well. And the office staff was very considerate always asking if we needed anything. . I would definitely stay there again and recommend it!
Time after time, when I travel north and have to stay a night or two, the Braidwood Motel is my first choice of stay. Ownership/management is always so polite and very accommodating. The rooms are always clean and very comfortable. And pricing? Well, you just can’t beat it. Give them a try, you won’t be be disappointed.
Great clean room. Great price. Bedding was nice, fuzzy microfiber blanket! You don't get that at a holiday inn! Staff was wonderful! Walls were thicker than expected, didn't hear the neighbors at all. The firm pillows are Very firm (memory foam) but overall a decent sleep. Microwave, fridge, climate control window unit, tub/shower combo. Would absolutely book again!
Convenient location for my trip down Route 66. Rooms are small but very clean and cozy Equipped with a frig and microwave. Everything I needed for a relaxing evening and a good nights sleep and at a fair price!! Would stay again. Highly recommend.
