The lady at front desk was rude and when I tried to explain she spoke to a man in their language. I stopped in to see if I can check in early, but she rudely explained that I cannot check in early because the room had to be thoroughly cleaned. I came back at check in time but she tried to argue with me about security deposit. I paid her, but when I went into the room, I was completely shocked because if we couldn’t check is because the room had to be thoroughly clean, she should get new cleaners their pillows were yellow and dingy and hat, black stains on it. We picked up the mattress just to make sure there were no bedbugs, but they had dead flies and a McDonald’s wrapper and some sausage underneath the mattress. I went downstairs and told her because I was completely disgusted and I should call Expedia because it was not her problem. She never got any complaints and I was silly because I was asking so many questions and charging less than usual for security deposit but it had to be paid in cash and she doesn’t have to tell me why and I was just supposed to call Expedia if I had any questions or complaints about the establishment. I ended up checking out and renting another place for two nights.

Maybe cheaper ain't always the answer
Check in made put a deposit on the stay. The room had a layer of dust and was stained everywhere. Washcloth had some short and curlies and the lobby and halls were hotter than outside, it was 82 outside.

TravelLodge gets a big NOPE
The desk people were rude and the whole lobby reeked of cigarettes. One of them didn't know how to use the computer reservation system. They demand $20 in cash up front as a deposit to ensure we didn't smoke in the room. The hallway to the room smelled like weed. One of the beds had hair and "stains" on it. They inspect the room before checking you out. We got our $20 back. But the shower water was nice and hot

Do not recommend this place at all.
Charge a $20 deposit on check in cash only no credit card, and attempted to not issue a receipt. I got the receipt eventually. This is not right, cash requires receipt. How does anyone know that check out clerk will say I don't have your deposit. This deposit was NOT on the web site. And then they have to inspect room in morning before getting deposit back. Room as ok. Bed was ok. Hallways terrible smoke and mildew smell. This is my first bad review and I hate doing this. But this management needs to get their act together.

Online it is listed as pet friendly, however when we got there it said no pets. Room was gross, holes in the wall, holes in the bed spread, stained sheets and the towels were in worse shape than my garage rags. Absolutely, no basics in the room. Had to ask for shampoo and dryer. If I were a Wyndham executive I wouldn't want my name associated with this hotel.

Just by walking in the place is creepy and smells really bad. The Room was dirty, had a weird smell, window was broken and so we’re the locks to the window and we were in the 1st floor. Anyone could have came in. Covers and pillow cases had very noticeable stains on them. The staff is weird and dishonest. When I asked the person at the front desk to return my deposit ($30) when checking out he only tried returning half my deposit thought maybe I’d forgot and then caught an attitude when I asked for the rest of my money. Would never recommend to anyone.

As you walk in, smelled marjuana coming from the check in counter. Floors and carpet were very dirty. Room were not clean, there was trash in the trash bins and room smelled had horrible smell. Talked to the front desk and they called manager, Mrs. Patel, she said that there was no cleaning service until next day. I told her that we could not stay because of the horrible conditions. I Had three nights reservation Before I left the motel manager said that she will refund the money but later she refunded for two nights. I will not recommend this place at all!!

Price and location was okay. Not sure it was TL's problem, but when I checked in, my res was not in their system, even when I furnished my transaction number from Expedia. They had a vacancy, so I got in at the Expedia price. Lot's of clutter around the lobby. Why is a snow blower still parked in a corner in July?

The check-in staff was ok, lady was on the phone the entire time, gentleman trying to help me was needing her assistance because I was paying cash, she never put the phone down nor acknowledged myself as a paying customer, very rude if you ask me especially for the amount of money I paid. The lobby and hallways were dirty, carpets needing cleaned and changed. The room was decent, much better than some of the reviews I had read. Bedding was clean and comfortable, no issues with bugs. Clean smell, non-smoking wing. Biggest complaint is the friendliness of the staff, always appeared to be a bother if we needed anything but apparently that comes with the culture. The area was fine, it is Waukegan. Wouldn't be my first choice but as a last minute booking, I would do it again.
