Arriving in chacago late on a saturday night, thought we would get a hostel to keep it a cheap trip but these fill up quickly in chicago. We stumbled across this as beers were the top of the agenda. very good value at $108 and male receptionist was extremely pleasant and receptive. very helpful when we explained what we were... more

This hotel was dirty and stinky. Not worth $10 a night. We ended up leaving and paying for somewhere else. more

Decided to stay here due to it's proximity to a concert venue. We, my girlfriend and I, were pleasantly surprised with the motel and the neighborhood. The parking was abundant and relatively secure. The free continental breakfast was unexpected and wasn't bad: apples, bananas, coffee, orange juice, milk, cereal, donuts and some porridge type stuff. Being that the motel is... more

For the price, the Heart of Chicago is an OUTSTANDING motel. Any complaints I might have -- noisy A/C, slightly cramped shower -- are so small that they are far outweighed by the positives. In a neighborhood where home properties are going for $600,000 to $1.5 million, finding a motel for $110 a night is amazing! The motel lies in... more

I was supposed to stay here in June 2008, but could not get to Chiacgo because of the summer floods. My transportation was cut off. I called Expedia to cancel my reservation, who contacted the hotel. The hotel told them they would not refund us the money. We had to pay 100% of the room we never stayed in. I... more

The Heart O'Chicago is a very basic, OK-located northside Chicago motel at a reasonable price. I was fairly happy with my stay until a large amount of change (which added up to a reasonable amount of money) was blatantly stolen from my room by housekeeping. I notified management who said it was none of their business and to bring it... more

Very good for the money. Old but very clean. I would stay there again. more

I used to live in Chicago and always was intrigued by this hotel when I drove by it, mostly due to the big cheesy sign (which I love). I was back in town to do some work and, although I usually stay with friends, I decided to get a hotel for a couple of nights. Since I was using my... more

Stayed here April 28th & 29th '08 and felt it was decent value for the money. The towels provided excellent exfoliation whether you wanted it or not, and the continental breakfast was pretty sparse, but the rooms were clean, housekeeping quite adequate, good restaurants close by and it was easy to navigate to the Lakeshore and downtown. Free parking too!... more
