Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a chain lock on the door which felt secure, but the rooms were extremely humid and uncomfortable despite being cozy and nice. They were clean as expected, which was a plus. The service was mixed, with staff speaking in a loud voice and being rude, but housekeeping took great care in cleaning the bathroom. The location was great for those visiting the Great Lakes Naval Station and Rosalind Franklin University, but the surroundings were dirty. The dining experience offered a small selection with no hot food options. Overall, the hotel had some positives but also some significant drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was clean and comfortable, but it was outdated and had some issues like a door locking problem and no towel holders. On the bright side, the price was great. The service was a mix of unavailability to resolve issues and helpfulness with smaller problems. The location was convenient for visiting the Naval Station, with plenty of nearby dining and shopping options. The dining experience left much to be desired, but the overall value was alright.
I found the hotel to be in a convenient location for visiting the nearby naval base, making it perfect for our trip to see our son. While the rooms were not in the best condition with noticeable stains and signs of wear, the friendly service and proximity to the base outweighed some of the downsides like the lack of a timely breakfast service.
