I have not been in Waukegan for a very, very long time. I thought the downtown area were we visited for an event at the Genesse Theater was very nice. I felt it was a safe area, well lit along with a Waukegan Police Officer directing traffic.

Everything you need is all close by, some walking distance and others just a short drive down the road. Everyone was extremely kind and professional. We definitely want to go back in the future.

Very nice community. Traffic was terrible going to naval base for graduation. There should have been police officers directing traffic. Felt bad for the locals who were going about their daily routine.

"I really like this Motel 6 it’s updated and the rooms are a little smaller but their beds are very comfortable and not sitting on the floor. The ladies at the front desk is welcoming and asking if it’s anything you need let them know. The washing and dryer works."
