Immediate reaction, is "what a dump?" But we didn't plan on staying there except for sleep and showers since we were visiting to go to the U2 concert. Desk people were nice, but don't expect to check in early. The did hang on to our luggage before check in and check out. This is way dated. The halls smell like... more

This is a good place for those who want to spend a fun weekend in downtown Chicago without spending too much. I would say it is a better place for adults traveling without children, because most of those staying there when we were there (a Saturday night in summer) seemed to be there to go out to the bars, etc.,... more

True. It was kinda old, but all the amenities worked except for the Wi-Fi which was absent the first 2 days of my 5 day stay. The dinner is really nice, too. The hotel provides really good value for the price. more

What a dive!

We were very conflicted about staying in this hotel because due to the pictures on the site. It looked kinda dumpy but not too bad. Upon our arrival, we COULD NOT believe our eyes. IT WAS DISGUSTING! It was filthy, run down, unsafe looking, smelly and overall, well...disgusting! We got the key to "check out the room", sat down at... more

Ok. I had looked at all the reviews and was dubious. So, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. The bathroom was a bit dated, but it was VERY CLEAN. The beds were softer than I prefer, but it wasn't bad. I always travel with a clothespin, to keep the light out from the curtains, and I was... more

This was the noisiest, most chaotic place I've ever stayed and in which I sought a night's sleep. Upon arrival I could not compel the WIFI to work with my computer, only to be told by the desk that it had been "down" with little or no interest or regard for my plight (I was trying ot communicate with work).... more

My husband and our 2 children spent a night here last week so we could get an early start at the Shedd Aquarium the next day. Although the rooms (we were in B1) were very small, they were very well arranged. The rooms were very clean except if you move furniture (dropped an earring) and then you might see something... more

I booked 1 night before for under 90$ it was good for the price and location. It is a short bus ride down La Salle into the Loop. The area just next to the hotel isnt the best but I still felt safe. Staff was nice and held my bags while I was in the city. Little noisy in the... more

The Staff was very cordial, that is where it ended. I have never stayed in a hotel that was as ill kept, run down and generally worn out as this one. If we had found another room anywhere in downtown, we would have left. Unfortunately, the town was completely booked. My daughter and grandaughter were bitten by bugs as they... more
