Location was great. We could walk to several attractions. If you are going to a bears game very easy to walk to. The bakery/coffee shop connected to it was great. The hotel is a little dated but clean and safe. The only down side was the dog park right next door. I love dogs but waking up at 5 am to the barking is not how i want to wake up.

This hotel is definitely in need of a refresh. It is a great location and less expensive than others nearby so you get what you pay for in this case. We also found one bug in our bathroom when we arrived, but no other cleanliness issues than just the wear and tear type things of scuffed walls and just older looking.

We had a nice stay. The room was clean and the lobby staff was very friendly. I would have rated it higher, but we had an issue with valet parking. Our truck was parked right outside the front desk area in clear view. It is of a stock height with no suspension lift. We paid for valet parking when we checked in, giving the make and model of our vehicle. There were no issues. Thirty minutes later, the front desk called us to inform us that the truck could not be accommodated. The valet fee was refunded but we had to park a block away. We chose this hotel because there were no valet parking restrictions noted. Apparently there needs to be and update of the hotel listing...

Room was old and dated. Mattress probably hasn’t been replaced in 30 years, feels like you’re sleeping directly on coils. Check-in staff was underwhelming. Not very enthusiastic like most hotels when you check into them. Bedding was clean and acceptable. Not much to say, as someone who travels a lot Chicago is a hard city to stay within company budget for hotel room, so unfortunately, some cities you just can’t win in especially in Chicago, where the fees and taxes are so high!
