Econo Lodge Gurnee

Would not stay here again. Was too inconvenient without a washcloth, clock and wastebasket. Ridiculous.

The staff was wonderful - and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. True, the reviews were poor - but the price was right so we gave it a chance. I reserved a total of three (3) rooms, for family and friends' lodging. One smelled sour, and the other two (2) smelled like ashtrays. The saving grace of this hotel is the staff's efforts to make your stay as comfortable as possible. However, in order to improve reviews, they need to invest in a complete overhaul of the rooms - and replacing the carpets and curtains, would make a world of difference. Postscript: We noticed that there was no elevator, so it was not wheel-chair accessible. read more

I wanted a non smoking room
they gave me smoking room which was the only room available when I asked to be switched. Also
me and
my son both have Asthma. Which flared up after being in this room.

Most TV channels don't come in, and the ones that do are blurry. The person who checked us in didn't even ask for an ID to check if we were who we said we were. The rooms were clean, but smelled a little musty. There was a smell in the hallway that was horrible. The Phone wasn't plugged in or even have a cord to plug it in.

Doors were slamming all night. And various people in and out. Pillows were horrible. Hole in the surrounding cooling unit. Flying insects in room.

Would not recommend this location to anyone.

The Lobby is attractive. The hall way and rooms are musty. I used febreeze daily. House keeping is a joke. They did not change the towels, even if they were left on the bath room floor, house keeping would just place it back on rack. But if you request a clean towel they would get if for you, with disdain.

The shower was clogged upon arrival. The TV was not working and it took the staff awhile to come and fix the tub. Was not pleased with my stay. They also ran out of breakfast at 7:30 when it started at 6:00.
