HOTEL REVIEW: Our stop in Morris, IL - Comfort Inn by Choice Hotels

Comfort Inn, 70 Gore Rd. W, Morris, IL 60450


It's the middle of January and we stopped in Morris, IL for a night as we continued to travel for our business.

There wasn't much at this intersection where the hotel is located but if you cross the bridge into Morris, you will certainly find more options for food and shopping. Morris is a quiet town not far from Metro Chicago. One of the best known things there is the Dresden Nuclear Power Plant. They also have a really nice state park there, as well as host their Annual Corn Festival.

I gave them 4 out of 5 stars!! It was a nice hotel, reasonable priced, for a one night stop on our way home.
See my review of the hotel below:

PARKING: When i was there, it was snowing so I could appreciate that the parking lot had been cleared of the snow and salted. There was plenty of parking available for the amount of guest and it was well lit.


EASE OF CHECK IN/CHECK OUT: The agent was friendly and check in and out was a breeze. No complaints.


CUSTOMER SERVICE: The customer service was exceptional. All of our needs were met and everyone was courteous and professional.

REWARDS STATUS PERKS: Upon our arrival, we were offered water and snack (which you can see in the picture above). Additionally, we were granted our late check-out request.


CLEANLINESS: Our room was very clean and nice. The linens were fresh and the room was cleaned appropriately.

DECOR: The decor at this property was a little dated. In the lobby, there was a very nice fireplace and beautiful blue furniture. However, the rooms have not had the same attention given to detail. There were these three little pictures above the sofa that I thought were cute.

LOCATION: The location was easy to get to although you had to go down a little side road which can be missed if you are not paying attention. But ultimately, the property is close to the highway and there was no congestion.

BREAKFAST: Breakfast was great and one of my favorite things about this property!! All of the fruit was fresh and there was a variety of yogurt flavors, which is rare. The breakfast area was spacious and there were plenty of tables for seating. there was also a television in the area which was nice to watch over breakfast. The breakfast area was clean and well maintained, as well as kept fully stocked.

WI-FI & TECHNOLOGY: I wasn't there long enough o get any work done but for my minor WiFi needs, everything seems fine.

EXTRAS: We were here for such a short time that I am not sure of any extras that they may have. Although I did see an indoor pool which was a nice size!!

VALUE: This property was a great value and the rooms were very large. They are spacious and come with a sofa. We slept peacefully for a great price.

Are there other Chicago suburbs that you are in love with?

What's your favorite thing about Illinois? Any recommendations on "must try" things to do while there?

Also, let me know if you've ever been to this Comfort Inn and your thoughts!

Where are you in your corner of the world today?

PRODUCT REVIEW: Beroy Women's Fitness Shorts

I’m so proud to  #partner  with  #Beroy  Women’s Fitness Wear as I kick off summer, a new half year, and my 3rd quarter goals! As many of us attempt to get our bodies in shape or increase our health and fitness for all of the summer time activities that lie ahead, working out in comfortable, breathable, fashionable gear is a top priority. T hese shorts are  #comfortable ,  #affordable , and  #cute ! And they have other options also specifically for  #running ,  #yoga ,  #tennis , or whatever your sport of choice is! Do you ever feel like it's hard to find a good selection of fitness gear that is easy on the pockets but doesn't sacrifice quality? I sure do! And what a pain it is to shell out tons of money for something that is not meeting up to the standards of what you paid for it. I'm grateful to be able to say that this was not the case with these cute little shorts! The fit was true to size, the product came quickly, and after a few...

BUSINESS REVIEW: Panera Bread, Greenville, SC (Haywood Mall)

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! I had the very best experience today at Panera Bread at Haywood Mall in Greenville, SC. Managers Marc, Susie, and Keith and the rest of the staff made it very hard for any other Panera to impress me more than they did today!! I am officially #TeamStore654 Panera also has this new "Fast Lane" and "Rapid Pick Up" system that makes the experience super convenient and easy! Who doesn't LOVE easy? With the fast lane, you walk in and order from a Kiosk (read: ipad) and everything is right there in words and pictures for you to select. With the "Rapid Pick Up," everyone with a mobile device essentially becomes a cash register. You order through your phone and when you arrive to the store, your order is waiting for you in the "Rapid Pick Up" section. Easy Breezy! THE GOOD: ~ Free Cookie for using the Kiosk - This might only be for a limited time but every time I used the kiosk today, they gave me a free cookie! No e...

Am I the only one who struggles with Sciatica and Back Pain?

MY TWO CENTS: For a very long time, I did not know what that shooting pain was that I continued to feel going down my left leg. I was absolutely clueless!! I didn't know anything about sciatica or chronic back pain and certainly didn't feel like I could have these symptoms at such a young age. However, being in my thirties with a history or cheerleading injuries, retail jobs in college, athletic wear and tear, fluctuating weight gain, genetics, and a host of other contributors, I begin to understand more about why my back was hurting me so badly and why my sciatic nerve pain was rearing its ugly head. I begin to look for non-surgical solutions and I found one in the ComfiLife Coccyx Cushion for Sciatica & Back Pain. According to the Mayo Clinic : Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. Typically, sciatica affects only one side of your body. Sc...
