Top Elfin Forest Preserve Hotel Reviews

Masterpiece Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was nice and very cozy. My wife and I stayed two nights and we were very comfortable. The staff at the front desk was very nice and helpful. This was our first time staying here and the only drawback for us and was I recently had back surgery and there was no elevator so my wife and I had to carry bags up and down stairs. We are 70's so it was a bit uncomfortable but not a deal breaker for staying there again. We will travel a little lighter next time."
