5/5 Excellent
"Very nice!"
A verified traveller stayed at Sonesta ES Suites Chicago Waukegan Gurnee
"Nice area, close to a lot of shopping and dining options. Clean, friendly staff. Nice room. A little bummed the jacuzzi was out of order at the time of visit but it wasn’t a hinderance. Only real complaint was the lack of breakfast options during the weekday compared to the weekend. "
A verified traveller stayed at La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Chicago Gurnee
"Staff was amazing, breakfast was amazing, rooms were so clean. Love the fact that the pool was open for such a large window of the day. The only thing I didn’t like was the bed wasn't all that comfortable, and the room was a little stuffy at night. Oh, and there was no spa like what was listed."
