It was in a convenient location and quiet. Parking lot was well lit. Rooms floors were greasy and counters felt dirty. Room service did not clean rooms during 3 day stay.

Boot Camp Grad stay
Stayed for my niece's Boot Camp graduation. So, only for 1 night. Room was spotless. Bed was super comfortable (not too plush and not too firm). Bathroom was clean. Shower head is old with a little rust but so what. Thats it. Fridge was clean. I used the iron and ironing board. Room is spacious. I was on the first floor. The front desk people were helpful. I checked in late and checked out early. They held my bag until my flight (around 2pm). And it's within 10 min of the base and 5 min of shopping and dining area.

Reason to stay at Hotel Sonesta Simply Suites Chicage Waukegan was to meet my first newborn grandson born September 4, 2024. After an early flight into O'Hare International, renting a car and driving to NW Lake Forest Hospital to meet my new grandson, son and daughter-in-law, spending several hours holding my grandson, I arrived to the hotel only to find the bedlinen dirty. The front desk attendants reassigned me a new room only to find dirty dishes in the dishwasher. The front desk informed me there were no other available rooms and offered me dish washing detergent. I asked to waive the parking fee which they did. I will not be stay at this hotel again. Diane Schechtman dsch18260@gmail.com

Seriously don’t know why this place is rated so well. To start, the kitchen sink was clogged and smelled so bad I almost threw up. I tried turning on the garbage disposal which did not work. I opened the cabinet to check the status of the garbage disposal and there was a full trash can and loaf of old bread from the previous people. When I told the front desk, they fixed the clog but failed to empty the trash. Also, they do not offer daily housekeeping. If you want clean towels or sheets, you have to take it to the front desk yourself. There is no pool. There is no breakfast. The beverage cooler had only 3 rows of Diet Pepsi and zero other options. Also, they charge you $5/day to park. I absolutely would not stay here again. However, I will say, the staff was very very friendly.

I was placed in a dirty room and was told I cannot be changed into a better room. My room wasn’t ready until 6pm and check in was at 4pm. Horrible experience and was forced to stay in the room
