Staff was great. My biggest issue was the elevator wasn’t working which was really inconvenient when having to lug suitcases down stairs. It’s a good location for the Navy boot camp graduation and I would stay again.

Upon my arrival, I discovered the establishment to be both inviting and well-maintained. However, I believe that the second floor would benefit from improved lighting. Aside from this observation, the staff demonstrated a commendable level of helpfulness and accommodation during both check-in and check-out. Additionally, the location is conveniently accessible and in proximity to various amenities.

The room is in need of renovation. The facilities are old and poorly maintained, and there was a strong moldy smell that was impossible to ignore. The only positive aspect is its convenient location near the Navy training base

The hotel had WiFi but unable to get on the internet. I wouldn’t call what they served a breakfast. No bread, no bagels or muffins, only instant oatmeal. They had eggs and sausage and a waffle maker. The coffee was terrible. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and I really liked the pillows. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. I have an issue with the bill and it’s still not resolved.

The front desk lady was amazing. She made me feel so warm and welcome. I thought I left my glasses behind and she went on a mission to find them. If I ever return to the area I will definitely stay here. I also loved the hot tea station in front.

It was very run down.. serves its purpose. Our first room hadn’t been cleaned. There was garbage in the pail and towels weren’t folded but the front desk was saying it was cleaned. Ok. Got a new room. Guy was nice. Otherwise, quiet and it was inexpensive so what do you expect I guess. Little ghetto.

The staff were all awesome!! The bedding and towel were clean. The rooms need a deep cleaning. Carpets, corners and woodwork, doors and handles. The people working here made up for the shortcomings. Superb staff, especially young lady working Wednesday, July15,2026. She was extremely helpful in guiding us on protocols for getting tickets for grandsons U.S.Navy graduation boot camp. SO helpful.

The staff at this hotel was very welcoming and friendly. One particular staff stood out the most. I wish that I had gotten this young man's name, so that I could shout him out directly. The moment I reached the desk to check-in, this young man was so patient and kind. He treated me like an invited guest in his home. And the small talk was very appreciated, it eased the bad day that I had started off with. The best service that I've ever received at a Hotel in years. The rooms were clean. The lobby and throughput had a very pleasant smell. Definitely would stay again!

This was a very economical hotel for our stay to attend naval graduation. With the kind of volume they get every week there were some maintenance issues that I was surprised about. But overall it was clean and in a good location.

I chose this Sleep Inn because of its proximity to the Great Lakes Naval Station—you can actually hear the calls from the base—but booking here was a huge mistake. The price may be lower, but they really need to include a disclaimer that you will essentially be staying on a dump site.

Directly across the street from the main entrance is a commercial landscaping facility with massive piles of compost. The smell is absolutely horrendous, making it practically impossible to breathe when you step outside. To make matters worse, there is a constant flow of dump trucks full of debris driving toward the hotel and turning into that facility all day long.

However, the worst part of our stay was the atrocious customer service. On our final night, my teenage daughter was thirsty, so I went to the lobby to use the water dispenser. I found it completely turned off. A receptionist heard me from the kitchen, ran out, and actually yelled at us, stating that the water dispenser is strictly for breakfast hours (6 AM to 10 AM). Apparently, at this hotel, you are only allowed to be thirsty on a schedule. When I asked where we could get water, she rudely told me to buy a plastic bottle from the vending machine—which had an \"Out of Order\" sign on it.

It is incredibly hypocritical for a hotel to claim they \"care about the environment\" by asking guests to reuse towels, yet they refuse to provide basic drinking water and push you to buy single-use plastic. We will absolutely never stay here again.

We stayed in the Sleep Inn due to activities at the Naval Base. It was very close, very quiet. Breakfast was nice. I would highly recommend this hotel if you're visiting Great Lakes.

This is my second time booking this hotel. My husband is in the navy so it is very close to the base, about 12 minutes away! I first went after he finished bootcamp and stayed here. However, one of the rooms (double bed) definitely had a smell. During that stay I got my own room (single bed), and that one did not smell. Definitely take the shuttle super easy! My second stay was great to visit my husband in school. Room was clean and no smell. However, the only thing I don't like about staying here is you must request room service. I had about 5 bags of trash by the end of my stay! (Was too tired/busy to call)

The room was ok but very noisy….walls are paper thin. Breakfast is ok if you like waffles, but that is the only form of bread they offer. No toast or biscuits. There is a small coffee pot in the room, but no microwave. Maybe good place for 1 night but for longer stay, it is inconvenient

If your son is graduating from Great Lakes, Boot Camp and you’re looking for a place to stay. This place is very close, they provide a shuttle service that will save you so much time the morning of. There’s nothing fancy about this hotel but it’s clean and well staffed with a decent breakfast and you can’t beat the price. I also like that they have a wall honoring the graduates. We were able to put our son’s picture up!

The stay was ok, no complaints. My initial room smelled like sewage but they immediately changed my room. My only real complaint is the breakfast was horrible. I have never tasted waffle mix so disgusting. It had kind of a sour taste to it, like you brushed your teeth and ate something directly after. Other than that, no major issues

I was not expecting the rooms to be so old and run down considering the price. Our room was dirty and had some trash leftover in the room and the bathroom. The main lobby looks ok but the rooms are very outdated and old. Breakfast consisted of just waffles, cereal, yogurt. No hot foods. Definitely will not be coming back.
