Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
This motel is situated quite a ways from the highway, so it is both quiet and safe. It has old decor and minimal amenities, but I found it to be adequate and got a great deal on the price.
Clean, affordable motel with friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunate lack of electrical outlets and the coffee maker didn't work. Otherwise a good place for a short stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The building and room were old and dated but clean and functional. Decent place for budget minded travelers.
The desk clerk was outstanding, not just processing my rrservation, but answering all my questions before I asked them, all with a smile and cheery disposition!!
Great hotel, I’ve stayed at places twice the price that were run down. Whoever is running this place is doing a good job. Employees were awesome. Room was spotless.

Inexpensive and clean older motel but was Good choice
Motel is out of the way
Our whole experience was an excellent one. Michael the young man that checked us in gave me outstanding service. He explained everything clearly and the only question i had to ask was in regard to checking out. The room was very clean and comfortable. We have stayed in Evanston three other times at different hotels and all them were bad experiences. If ever we are in Evanston again we will be staying at Affordable Inn and not just because of the financial benefits.
The air handler was super loud and I had trouble sleeping.

Definitely dates but the rooms were clean, warm, and it was affordable (lol). The deadbolt on our door didn’t work so we weren’t able to lock ourselves in for the night but other than that no issues.
