4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
For the price I can’t complain too much. It was in a decent area. It was actually pretty quiet too. The staff was friendly as well. My biggest complaint is that the room was dirty, and that they made a photo copy of my drivers license, God knows what will happen to that photo copy after I checked out… I was a solo traveler for one night, and it was affordable. With that said, I would not recommend for couples or families.

Uncomfortable bed and smelly. I was forced to stay in a smoking room because the non-smoking room door key did not work. Walls were thin as I could hear the more permanent guests’ tv on all night. This is a bare bones motel, but the one thing I needed (sleep) was difficult. One bright spot was the friendly staff who checked me in.

I really wanted to like this place. It’s wrecked looking from the outside and there is no “Gurnee Motel” sign so I missed the turn. No problem, I thought. Chin up. The portico outside is closed off. There is scaffolding all around it but I don’t think it’s for construction. There was no evidence of work. I think it’s just gonna be that way forever. The man at the desk was very friendly and suggested I see the room before I signed on the dotted line so to speak. I should’ve known at that stage to run. He was very nice though. At first glance, the room wasn’t terrible. I was excited. There were two beds, a microwave, and a fridge. It didn’t look too shabby… Well let me tell you the tale of The Gurnee Motel motel room. There were eight lightbulbs in the room, three of which worked. The bedside lamps were supposed to plug into the wall, but the plug end was wrapped loosely white electric tape. Against my better judgment I plugged it in anyway and tried to turn the lights on. Surprise, surprise - it didn’t work. (2 down) Either way I would imagine it wasn’t safe. Of The four lights (which are presumably supposed to be fancy) over the sink and mirror, only one worked. (3 more down). The three that worked were the bathroom light (yay), the one over the mirror, and one on the wall opposite the heads of the beds. The sink was in the room, not the bathroom, - so two of the working lights were in the room. With both lights on, the room was dim - not in a mood-lighting way. The bathtub l

The staff was amazing. When we got there our room wasn't ready due to a person calling in. The lady i dealt with was very apologetic. When we came back everything was ready. No the room wasn't a top notch but for what I paid for the night I wouldn't expect a high price room. I read other posts and they said there were roaches, we didn't have any in our room.

Avoid this location if you can. Thin walls mean lots of ambient noise. Reeks of cigarette smoke. Wildly dilapidated. I could go on...
