Good location and price

Staff was really friendly and helpful. Pretty clean and seemed to have been remodeled. Protesters at 5 am right outside were disturbing but outside of the hotel control. They did let us know about it upon check in at least. Overall felt safe, no bugs, decent price. Close parking for a fee. Convenient location.

Terrible experience. Parking should absolutely be free. $65 a night for parking is nothing short of theft. On top of that, the hotel had protesters outside with megaphones, and instead of offering a discount or compensation for the disruption, nothing was done. But just saying sorry. To make matters worse, at checkout my bill was $801 for a 3-day stay because they improperly billed me. After arguing with the front desk, they finally corrected it down to $620. still outrageous, but at least almost $200 less than their mistake. Laughable hotel. I would never return here, even if it were the last hotel available in Chicago.

Had a good stay, hotel was clean and tranquil. Highly recommended if you're taking the train from O'Hare airport, as it's located right in front of Clinton station, and it's close enough to various bus stops.

From the moment we arrived the staff was so friendly and helpful. We were a family of 4 (mom, dad, 19yr, 12yr) in town for a concert. The easy access to the blue line was an added bonus. Room was very clean and comfy and worked well for what we needed. The bathroom is on the small side but we made due. They provided a hair dryer, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion (dove brand in big pump bottles). The housekeeping did an amazing job every day while we were out. Will definitely stay with them again if ever in Chicago.

Protestors

Booked 2 rooms, but both were not ready at check in. They were very apologetic about it. The other issue was the protesting starting at 5:30 am and people screaming into megaphones at the hotel trying to just antagonize the hotel guests and then after that the construction noise picked up for the rest of the morning

Food poisoning?

Room itself was clean and comfortable. Good location, staff were friendly. However, after my first night, I had breakfast the next morning, scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, and orange juice - a pretty standard breakfast for me at home too - and proceeded to throw up for 6-7 hours. I had a pounding headache and even water was coming right back up minutes later. I felt like I’d faint just trying to walk down the hall to the ice machine. I rarely get sick, much less throw up, so this was extremely unusual for me. I had to cancel all of my plans for that day and most of the next day. With only a weekend in Chicago, it was very disappointing to miss nearly both full days of a trip I had planned for a year. I had purchased tickets for several museums and events that I was not able to attend because I could not stop throwing up. My final morning of the trip, I had a waffle, which was held in a heated tray but lukewarm. I barely ate it because I feared getting sick again, and I felt nauseous that whole morning. I worked in food service for five years and it makes me wonder if the food is being held for too long or at the incorrect temperature. Whatever it was, my experience was horrible. Additionally, there was a labor demonstration outside the hotel for the length of my trip. I commend the housekeeping staff for fighting for their rights. Treat your employees like humans and they won’t have to use the megaphone and bang drums at 5:00 AM.
