Great stay for Navy Graduation. We had the 2 bedroom suite, our sailor had his own room/ restroom which he loved. We had evening storms, so didn’t use the pool. Breakfast/ coffee was alright to get to you started, we went to restaurant for heartier fare. Super easy to get to/from graduation. Close to fast food/Walmart. Grounds were beautiful, staff was helpful and made sure we had all we needed for our stay.

This was by far the BEST hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The room was incredibly spacious and the amenities are not to be overlooked! We had a small kitchen inside of our room, along with utensils, pans, silverware, plates, cups, a stovetop, fridge and a dishwasher! I couldn’t stress this enough: if you are traveling for Navy Graduation, this is the hotel to stay at. The front desk staff were so kind and helpful throughout our stay, and I really could not be more appreciative of them. The pancake machine was awesome!! I would 100% stay here again when visiting Gurnee or Chicago.

The staff receives a 10/10. This is my 2nd time staying here. Both times there were different staff members and both times the customer service was great. The HR department is doing something right with employee selection. Our room was clean, breakfast was well stocked. I’m planning on returning this summer so we can enjoy the pool and basketball court.
