We stayed here for two nights on a three-day trip to Six Flags and Gurnee Mills Mall. For the price, it was a great place to stay. It's not the Ritz Carlton, so do not expect it to be. But if you go in with realistic expectations, it was a great place.
THE GOOD: The hotel staff was phenomenal, especially Fran. I had a lot of little questions and needed some things I forgot and she answered all of them and took care of me with a smile. The breakfast was pretty good too. Nothing grand or extravagant, but the make-your-own waffles, scrambled eggs, biscuits, cereal, fruit, and bagels was more than enough for us. The location is also great - if you want to stay for a trip to Six Flags, it's about a 5-10 minute drive, and you save so much compared to staying at one of the hotels right next to the park. Lastly, the things in the room were all very clean and fresh.
THE NOT-SO-GOOD: If you are planning on coming here on a trip that has you spending a lot of time in the room, I hope you bring a laptop and some DVDs. They have cable, but the channel selection is very small (basic news channels and some extras, like ABC Family. They do NOT have any ESPN channels, Comedy Central, USA, TNT, etc.) That was a bit disappointing for me. Also, while the linens and towels were clean, our room did have a stain on the floor. It was not a fresh stain, and did not bother me, but some may be put off by it (again, I don't expect them to change the carpet every time there is a spill, but thats just me. Everything else in the room was impeccable). Lastly, as someone else also had, we had a wonderful view from our window - of a brick wall, about 3 feet away.
Overall, if you are booking the Quality Inn and expecting a comfortable, clean place to sleep, a simple breakfast, and a quick drive to the local attractions, you would be hard pressed to find a better value. It's not a perfect hotel, and it is not luxurious, but it suits your needs, and the customer service was excellent.
