Grant Hills Motel is a very good no-frills motel. Rooms are clean and reasonably priced. I stay here occasionally when I visit friends in Galena.

Check in was not great. I booked through Expedia so no payment was due at check in. I gave the clerk my ID and he told me I needed to swipe my credit card. I told him again that I booked through Expedia and I shouldn’t have to pay again. He told me I needed to pay. I asked him the amount and it was more than $10 more than the Expedia price. He then asked me if my name was, something that began with a B, and I said no, I just gave you my ID!!! He finally pulled up my reservation and figured out that I didn’t owe any additional money. Then I get to my room and the TV didn’t work so I had to change rooms. Very frustrating.

Check in was fast and easy. The hotel and our room was very clean. Very close to downtown Galena, just an eight dollar Uber ride away. I will definitely stay here again.

I immediately had to ask to be switched to another room upon arrival as my room smelled, and there was a big bug on the wall. The sidewalks were cracked and crumbling. One of the chairs in my room was filthy and had a giant burn in the center. I took a photo but I don't see how to download to this review. The floor of the shower was squishy and I felt like I was going to slip or fall over. I realize the rate for this motel was very inexpensive but I would not stay here again.
