Clean rooms! The walls are really thin. You can hear the TV next door very easily. After I made the reservation I received an email that parking would be 40.00, go to check in and she said it was going to be 50.00. We got it all figured out, the check in lady was VERY nice. Heads up on the parking fee.
Stayed here for three nights. If you don’t mind hearing people in the hallways going into their room, you’ll enjoy it. It’s not often, and once they’re in their room you don’t hear them anymore. Totally worth the price. Small but nice!! Awesome location!! Easy parking.

Parking was safe and easy, but having to drag the suitcase up the 2nd floor could be a challenge
The area is nice. The staff is really good. But it is extremely noisy. Every time another resident opens or closes their door you can hear it. You can hear conversations from other rooms.
This hotel is in an ideal location, you can basically walk to anywhere downtown Chicago. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Price is very reasonable. Room has everything: safe, regrigerator, microwave, TV. Stronly recommend to stay here if you are looking for a cost effective and comfortable hotel.
I was not informed of Continental breakfast, I didn’t remember it from booking, and this certainly was not brought up at check in. I booked a king room, they put me in a room over the office. I had to climb a dark creepy staircase, to a room with a moldy smelly bathroom. I immediately asked management to move me and was told I couldn’t. The mini fridge and microwave weren’t plugged in and I had to move a heavy piece of furniture for them to reach the outlet. There is no temperature control and so I had to ask for heat multiple times. The heat comes on at about 80 degrees for 10 minutes so you just about can’t breathe and shuts off for another 50 until you freeze. This was the worse stay I’ve ever had anywhere.
Our room was at the ground floor just by the entrance door. VERY noisy. Could hear every word said in the hallway and woke up by the door slamming. We could also hear the people moving around upstairs. Would never stay in this room again.

Parking excellent, Walk to good food,
Perfect for a quick business meeting close by. Nothing fancy, maximum convenience.
There is nothing bad to write about this property. The only thing I would advise the next person of is the $50 parking fee and the $125 incidental charge that will be needed before you can get a key to the to the living room.
Great place, clean, good service and top location!
Smooth reservation and without issues. Room very clean and with all necessities. Air conditioner needs to be adjusted per room as every guess as a different need. Staff was excellent and assisted as needed. Other than that, great Experience.
Convenient location, comfortable beds, thin walls--bring ear plugs! Other guests were constantly slamming interior & exterior doors. No climate control in the rooms--you have to tell the front desk people if you need adjustments. Millary was particularly helpful and very nice.
Convenient safe parking. Friendly staff. Simple affordable rooms. Perfect place to stay for the Chicago Marathon. On the course and very close to the start.
