For a low-cost, shared bathroom experience, it was excellent, very clean with CTA stations nearby. Also number 65 bus takes you to Navy Pier, very convenient. I recommend Grand House for location and low cost stay.

I had a great stay at Grand House Chicago. The location was very convenient and easy to get to. My room was clean, and the bathroom was spotless as well. It’s an excellent place for a short stay. My room was on the second floor, and the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, even with neighboring rooms. I also appreciated the secure access with the entry code, which made me feel safe during my stay. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean and convenient place in Chicago.

The room was dirty, the shower water was cold, and I paid for early check-in but was not able to check in at the time I was promised. Overall, the stay did not meet expectations, especially given that I paid extra for a service that was not properly honored. Cleanliness, communication, and basic room comfort all need improvement

Location was super convenient, and the management was always responsive despite being offsite. I received a text around 2PM with my check in code and directions for how to find my assigned room, and the code became active at exactly 3PM. This place is simple, no-frills, but it is safe, clean, the bed was comfortable, and honestly I was stunned that despite being in a busy area, it was quiet enough that I didn't need my earplugs! I would absolutely stay here again.
