8/10

A solid 3-star hotel. It was neat and clean, felt safe and was convenient to attractions and downtown Chicago. It's one of the few places with onsite parking, which was a major consideration. Nothing within walking distance, but a lot of restaurants and amenities a short drive away.

The property itself is in a very safe part of town and location is amazing! We did have a few items that seemed “loose”, such as in light switches and faucets. Nonetheless, as broke college kids, the hotel serves our needs wonderfully
4-night trip

Good value. Good location. Reasonably quiet. No recycling and still using tiny plastic toiletries.

10/10

I was skeptical about the place because of the reviews. The place it’s ok; basically is just to rest while doing all the things you r doing while in vacations. It’s cool since is by the hwy, close to the soldier stadium,all museums and sears tower and 360; plus the river is across the street. And the employees were so kind and nice! Definitely the place to stay for good price and you can bring you furry friends along too!
