"Todo bien"

Days Inn by Wyndham Waukegan

8/10 Good

"So stayed two nights. The room was actually pretty nice, clean, the king bed was comfortable. The room was laid out nice, big enough for two people and seem to have been updated recently, as the lamps had USB plugins for charging stuff, there was a fridge that worked well, a microwave but no coffee maker. They're also were no dressers just cubbies if you wanted to unpack your bag somewhere. The bathroom was nice it also seemed to have been updated with a newer sink and faucet, the tub was nice with a newer shower head that worked well.The lighted mirror was nice that you could control the hue of the light. The breakfast was okay, but the bacon,sausage patties and potatoes were a little iffy as they were not thoroughly cooked but the eggs, toast and pancakes were okay. So for what we needed for two nights, the stay was pretty good all in all for the price we paid."
