Room, pool, lobby were all clean and had a friendly enviorment. Hotel was in a good area and within walking distance to major city transportation, which i would recommend taking since finding a place to park was difficult to find/expensive. Staff was very friendly and I was able to do an early check in with great recommendations of the area. If i go back to Chicago, i will definitely be coming back.

I guess you can say we were UNDERWHELMED. The room decor, halls, and elevators were drab. (More artwork on the walls or drapes would help) The room was in need of updating: paint peeling in the bathroom, stain on the couch. But worst of all was the breakfast. Hotel should be ashamed to charge $22 each for what another review called mediocre at best. Instant oatmeal, no juice machine (you had to specially order juice from the hostess), minimal supply of bread offering. No fresh fruit. Unappealling and minimal supply of pastry. Poor hostess had much too much to do -- and so silverware was out when we arrived, several food containers needed to be refilled, etc. We had hoped for something special for the buffet; instead we left feeling hungry and ripped off. Also: the neighborhood felt sketchy and we were not eager to walk around outdoors.On the other hand: the staff were warm and welcoming and the bed was quite comfortable. The rooftop pool looked quite inviting. Very disappointing stay.

Location: not bad. Super close to the Clinton station of the blue line, thus very easy to get to the airport. But there is no store or restaurant within 5 mins of walk. There are some stores like Dunkin, H mart (a Korean supermarket) about 10 minutes away by walking. Cleanse : OK. I saw a long white (or blonde) hair entangled with the telephone cord. Otherwise, no issue. Quietness: It is very close to a major highway, and the room is not very soundproofing. I could hear the guests next door talk if loudly, threw up at 2am, and turned on their shower. And I could hear the highway all the time, especially some motorcycles. I would suggest you to bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

While over all comfortable, and a great location, we unfortunately had noisy neighbors each night of our 2 night stay. The first night kids next store were apparently running around screaming as we were trying to go to sleep. The second night there seemed to be a loud party. Finally had to call the front desk at 3:30 am to ask them to intervene.
