8/10 Very good

Nice, helpful staff, inexpensive and not far from downtown. On the downside - no elevator, vending machines only take $1 bills and no other amenities.

2/10 Poor

The beds wers terrible, they were the most uncomfortable mattress I've ever slept on. They are covered with plastic making them so noisy. The website said 'pet friendly' but when we checked in we were directed to a room that was next to a noisy street. And were told that by the front desk that was their preferred pet room. Im pretty sure i have athlete foot now and I was wearing rubbers shoes, so the tub must carry fungus. The shower was designed for someone under 5 feet tall. Free breakfast was a room temperature yogurt, old looking fruit and a prepackaged muffin. The coffee cup was like 6 oz so that was lame. It was not enjoyable at all.

10/10 Exceptional

Buena localización, trato de personal en counter, estacionamiento, precio, apariencia en general fue buenísima. Lo único que no me gustó fue pedir habitación para no fumadores y tenía un olor un poco desagradable. Pero por todo lo demás estuvo excelente. La habitación estaba bien bonita. El hotel estaba localizado cerca del área que yo necesitaba.

The carpet in the hall way disgusting. Addicts hanging outside. The bed was so uncomfortable. There was no gym, like they advertised. Bathroom so small it was difficult to close the door.

This property is really old and outdated. The area was really ghetto. It was my fault for not researching enough when I booked it. We needed a place to stay for my son’s Navy graduation and it’s really close. The staff was wonderful but the hotel was terrible.

Property states they had a fitness center. Nope was told oh no it’s under construction! Room was only cleaned once in the 3 nights we were there.

I stayed for 3 nights from 8/14-8/17/24. My son graduated from The Navy Boot Camp. I liked that it was minutes away from the ceremony. Also minutes away from stores a places to eat. The staff was very nice and friendly. The hallway carpet was dirty, but the rooms were very clean. I will recommend this facility for a brief stay in Great Lakes, Illinois.
