I thought the hotel was clean and well kept. (or appeared to be) The staff was EXTREMELY helpful as far as with my transportation. I had never been to chi-town before and was travelling alone with basically no knowledge of the city. I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to help me. The room was small but very affordable and clean. Can't ask for much more in my opinion.

Location is EVERYTHING!

I have been reading these reviews and honestly, take them with a grain of salt. Is the hotel small and outdated? Yes, but you CANNOT beat the location. You are 5 minutes walk from downtown. You walk out and can walk through the HUGE park onto the lakeshore park. You are 2 blocks down from local bakeries, restaurants, Second City(great comedy group), and 3 blocks from an EL station. If you are coming to Chicago to spend the day in the hotel, then this is not the room for you. But if you are coming for having a place to crash for the night after a long day on the town, then it's perfect. My wife and I absolutely loved the location and being able to be so close to downtown for such a price.

The reception area is awful, very grungy looking not a great first impression, the staff are very casually dressed not v professional. Some reception staff are nice some are terrible. The other staff are all very pleasant, the shuttle drivers, the cleaners etc all very nice. The Shuttle which drops you anywhere within 5 miles of the hotel is a great service. The hallways and elevators could do with a serious clean and update . My room was fine, it was huge and had two bathrooms, i thought it was pretty clean to be honest. All in all the location was good but the hotel could do with a new look!!

First impression was a girl at the front desk in desperate need of a bath and shampoo. One of the two elevators was not working, the advertised resaurant downstairs closed last week, the carpets crawled with grunge, and the wallpaper was peeling from the walls We had a "suite" with two mold infested bathrooms, and a sofa with a broken arm. The bed sank in the middle. Oh and the remote control for the TV was held together with scotch tape and of course didn't work even at that. Our "no smoking" room reeked from cigarettes and there were cigarette burns on the carpet, the bathroom floor and the blankets. The young man at the desk in the morning was simply nasty. When I told him that the elevator wasn't working (I had been stuck in it for 5 minutes) he snapped at me and "they are both working, anything else?" The good news only is that it in an excellent location with a great view - if only the windows were clean enough to enjoy it. The women who cleaned the rooms were very...... Read more

Every time you use the hotel internet (even for 2 minutes to check your email) the hotel charges $9.95!! Haven't they heard that every other hotel gives this to their customers for free? With all the horrible review on internet you would think they will try harder.
