This property has very efficient employees. They're all professional and friendly. The rooms are clean and it is convenient to the Great Lakes Naval base. The price was fantastic. The only problem is the breakfast. They only offer of muffins and yogurt along with juice, coffee, and tea, but the muffins were good. They were top-tier Otis Spunkmeyer.
