Caterina, Park Ridge

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I love the funky vibe of the hotel- exposed brick, cool hallway lighting, nicely sized rooms, crisp white comfy beds. The hotel is very clean and modern and the area around it is very cute. The building is old and not very soundproof- we heard every step above us and a fight the couple next door had at 7am. Just a few things that would make it more comfortable- a phone in the rooms to call the front desk and ask for towels would be nice. More hooks or shelves in the bathroom and sink area. 2 white robes would be a really nice touch and helpful. Finally, the shampoo/conditioner and shower gel were not great. Other hotels (even less expensive ones) have offered better products. Finally- the people working the front desk barely acknowledged us at all- no greeting- no smile. Just kind of sitting there. Sort of weird for being in hospitality.

This was a quirky hotel. Rustic and nicely renovated. Unfortunately there was no soundproofing! It was very noisy. Also no convenient parking.

The room looked lovely but we quickly discovered that it was not sound proof. We could hear conversations the couple staying above us had. Every time they flushed the toilet or used the sink, it sounded like pouring rain in our room. Plus, our AC quit in the middle of the night and we couldn’t reset it.

Air conditioning was any effective. It made lots of rattling noises and would not cool to our desired temperature of 68. Room felt kind of dirty. Bugs in the tub. Toenail clippings in the corner of the bathroom.
