All was fine until I woke up with the next morning and my boyfriend had a cockroach crawl across his face. I asked for a refund and left and they only gave me half my money back. I would expect a full refund for something like that

Dirty, bugs, burn marks on curtains and sheets. Smelled of cigarettes. But in a pinch and for the price, about what you’d expect.

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

Roaches
Been there twice. It is the cheapest room you can get. So low expectations. The first time - saw a roach before we left. We were close to the office though so maybe that helped, maybe they spray the office area. This time - much further down the hall. Once I started walking down the hall I just kept walking faster to get out of the stinky hall. Smelled like a dog kennel. Room didn't smell. Sheets didn't look cleaned. Roaches found early on. Didn't spend the night.

This place should be torn down. The rooms were not cleaned, the trash can was dirty with someone else’s filth with no plastic bag. Bugs all over the place on bed, carpet and everything. Fried chicken left under the bed. I’m so glad I only stayed 1 night. I didn’t see no bed bugs but I’m sure the whole motel is infested. Crumbs all over the place. I would turn this motel into a migrant shelter that’s how disgusting this place is. Worst place I’ve stayed at in my life

There were roaches. I haven’t killed a roach in years. The fridge has been cracked open for a while and the wood is damaged and the carpet I was wet. The sheets had a red smear on them. Not blood, but a red smear. And There wasn’t any courticy soap. And of course the bathtub was filthy.
