It's a place to stay? The room is really bare bones, just a bed, small TV, bathroom and a bar of soap. The bed was very worn out and sunk in the middle, and the room smelled very strongly of smoke. The windows were very thin (1 pane?) and the apartment next door was quite loud.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Staff & service
As soon as we entered the property, our issues began. As we were checking in, the lady at the front desk tried to accuse us of having an unpaid for (?) or additional guest, which was completely untrue. That night, we were settling into our room when we saw a roach run across the wall then onto our bed. We decided to let this slide since it was really the first real inconvenience. However, the next night, we had noticed a dark liquid dripping from our ceiling. We went to the front desk and expressed our concerns about the issues we had been experiencing. At first, they offered us a full refund, but then quickly retracted their claim, telling us we could either check out and get a partial refund or to “deal with it”. We tried negotiating by asking for a new room, which they wouldn’t do for us. The workers said they would check out the room, but never did. We had to clean up the mess. The staff was very unhelpful and our experience was quite disappointing.

After being diverted to Chicago due to bad weather I was happy to find a hotel room. The front desk lady was very friendly when I checked in and I was greatful, it had been a long day! The room is basic but quite large. Close to the airport for the win.

The room was clean and that's always our priority. We knew it would be a "bare bones" room (no mini refrigerator microwave or hair dryer) but there was only a small bar of soap in the shower to use - no shampoo or anything else. That's a bit too skimpy to us.

Worst experience and was only there for 4 to 5 hours. Arrived after 3am and room seemed clean. Was woken up at 7am due to multiple smoke/fire alarms in the room. Saw a roach on the floor and blood splatter on the wall. We ran out. Please save yourself the trouble and stay ANYWHERE else.

3.5 stars. I would give it a little extra for the affordability. A flight left me stuck in Chicago, and this was the nicest place around that was affordable and still had a room available. (I think I got the last one). I liked that the sheets and bathroom were clean. Room and hallway was dated. Wall in my room was a little scuffed up but it was fine for 1 night. Also, hall had a funny smell, but room did not. Wish they had breakfast, but understandable they don't for the price.

Sheets were not changed between guests. The rest of the room was fairly clean. Severe vibration noise came from the upstairs air conditioning unit, which kept me awake the whole night.

Dusty floor, but otherwise clean property. Comfortable bed. There was a smell of cannabis smoking in the hallway, but the room was clear of any smells and was pleasant. Very basic, didn't have fridge nor microwave. No hairdryer, coffee maker, nor iron, but it had a washer and dryer in the property. Overall a good stay for the price. We would stay there again.

Nothing place was garbage. Roaches and outdated. Shower curtain fell twice. I never write bad reviews ever because I don’t like being that person… but in reality… this is probably the worst place in the area.
