Holiday Inn Express & Suites Waukegan by IHG

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Waukegan by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic two night stay, great hotel, and would definitely stay again if in the area in the future! I originally had the Sonesta Select booked for months and changed to the Holiday Inn Express about 2 weeks before my trip, to have a room with a jetted tub. Worth extra $. I had room 309, right off the elevator, yet quiet, clean, comfortable, and loved the jetted tub, was very relaxing! Check in was great, two staff at the desk, both engaged, were friendly, and welcoming. We chatted about my roller coaster trips and travels! The fridge was nice and cold, ice cold AC, great shower pressure, soaps/shower gel were full, and I had no issues with the room. Spent hours in that jetted tub it was great! Breakfast was wonderful too, of course plenty of cinnamon rolls, bacon the first morning, sausage the next, items rotated, one morning was omelettes, other scrambled eggs, other items like biscuits and gravy, yogurts, etc. Love the coffee machines which are available 24 hours. Breakfast ended at 9:30 and was stocked until the end which is great! My only minor gripe is there were 3 bath towels for the room with a jetted tub, it was a 1 king, so not the end of the world, but some towels by the tub, especially to stand on after to dry off, would be nice, as I used a hand towel for that. One of the bath towels was a bit worn and when drying myself I could hear it tear a bit. Lots of food nearby and Six Flags was only about 10 minutes away. Would love to stay again some day! "
