Good location because it isn't too far from downtown. I checked in with a kind gentleman but that's where the pleasantness ends. The room & staircase had a strange smell, I didn't trust the cleanliness of the bathroom or the bed (slept on top of the spread). As I attempted to check out around 5am, the representative must have thought I was a common loiterer and rudely dismissed me until I showed my keycard (I would have given this location another stay if not for this instance). I will find another location to use for my next visit to Chicago.

Wouldn't stay again

The shower had a constant drip, the bathroom had a foul smell (like a sewer-type smell), and the bathroom had some of its lights on some sort of motion sensor that kept going on and off even if you were standing still.

Where we try to stay when we go to see our daughter in Chicago. It's not a big place, but the price is good and the rooms are nice and smelled good. Bed was decent, although the pillows could better, and I would prefer cotton over microfiber sheets. Bathroom amenities were soap and no more, The lady running the front desk is grim but does her job well. Parking is adequate and right off the street. There is a Panera one block away (which is closing alas!) making breakfast easy,

Cheap, fairly clean. Kinda dumpy

There was a paper cup in the shower. The shower dripped - into the cup. We later realized the cup prevented the splash from getting on the bathroom floor. Ingenius? Kinda - but perhaps fixing the shower would be better. Also - at 2am the first night - we heard like 6 gunshots. This was a first for me.. It was cheap. It seemed clean. It did serve its purpose for a 2 night stay. I don’t think I’d stay again or recommend it

I recently stayed at the Rodeway Inn for a total of about 2 weeks, and I want to take the time to share just how positive my experience was. First and foremost, I want to recognize Barbara at the front desk. She was truly the highlight of my stay. Every single time I checked in, Barbara was warm, professional, and welcoming. She went above and beyond her role by not only making sure everything was handled smoothly but also by offering thoughtful recommendations and advice. That kind of personal attention made me feel valued as a guest. Most importantly, knowing Barbara was on duty gave me peace of mind—I felt safe, respected, and able to finally get the rest I desperately needed. Staff members like Barbara are rare, and she is a tremendous asset to your hotel. Housekeeping also did an excellent job. My room was always clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The air conditioning worked perfectly, which was a big relief during my extended stay. That level of consistency made it easy to settle in and feel comfortable for the weeks I was there. Overall, my stay at this Rodeway Inn far exceeded my expectations. I came in thinking of it as just a motel stay, but it turned out to be comfortable, restful, and stress-free. Because of the outstanding service—especially Barbara’s professionalism, kindness, and dedication—I will most definitely stay again and recommend this location to others. Sincerely, Erica Edwards

The door frame trim that had the door latch was loose from the wall and would come off. The water smelled like sulferus well water. The windows seemed to be made of paper as theyvlet in every single noise from outside. Parking only had 15 spots with 1 handicap spot to cover a total of 20 plus rooms. The door to the stairs that lead to our room did not lock or even have a latchctocstay closed. The beds were clearly bricks with some springs in them and the blanket situation was simple a queen sized heavy duvet cover with not actual duvet inside of it for a king sized matress. The room as a whole was clearly poorly remodeled. Oh and the coffee maker had moldy coffee still in it from the previous person who had stayed there.
