Great location. Cheap room. We knew the room would be small. We wanted a clean place to sleep near Chinatown. This place is a block from the subway (L) station. It’s right off one of the main shopping streets in old Chinatown. It’s in an old building which was less clean than I would have liked but not dirty. Linens were clean. It was pretty quiet. We will definitely stay here the next time we are in Chicago.

The room was not clean. It was nasty. The bathroom has mold in the showers. The ac unit barely worked and when it did it let out a loud ear piercing noise. There was a pill in the floor when I got there. (That's how I know they didn't clean also) There was garbage that was left in the hall way for 2 days.. On my last night I finally found what I was getting bit by, luckily I didn't see bed bugs but it was fleas. I got one and showed the night time clerk and he just shrugged his shoulders and kept asking me if I was scared of it. Like no sir I'm not scared I just don't want to be bit by it. I went for a concert and arrived late that night. They offered to change rooms but I didn't want to risk moving my stuff to a room potentially worse than what I was in. I had a couple hours my left before check out so I toughed it out and told the morning front desk. He did offer a little compensation. He was nicer and more understanding than the night time clerk. But if you thought like me and wanted to stay more budget to spend more while in Chicago do yourself a favor and spend a little more for another one.

You're paying only for the location in the city

Where do I begin.. The positives - the two younger front desk staff; they were fantastic in accomodating needs where they could. And no bed bugs found in any of the beds we checked! The rest pretty much goes downhill. We checked in, having booked a room with 2 queen beds and were immediately asked to switch to use two seperate rooms. We declined as we were two females travelling together. The first room we were given (101) was terrible (dirty, extremely stained sheets, garbage on the carpet, dirty and run down bathroom, stains on walls everywhere). I went down and asked for new sheets, ended up complaining the room was disgusting overall and the lady offered to let us switch rooms. We went to the next room and it was... better. Still dirty and the beds were just cheap futons but the sheets were clean. The bathroom was dirty with borderline traumatizing showers, stains on walls everywhere but we didnt have a choice and had to stay here. The second night we asked for a two extra blankets (the ones on the bed are SUPER thin) and a pillow - they were only able to accomodate ONE extra blanket and no pillow lol. I was given some extra sheets bundled up instead. The walls of the hotel are super thin, you can hear everything and to store food there is a communal fridge. The morning we left, there were people sleeping in the public lounge in a sheet bedroom. I would never stay here again but we made it work as it was the cheapest for the location and proximity to downtown Chicago.
