Reviews and Ratings
I found this hotel to be very conveniently located near the Metra station, providing easy access to downtown Chicago and the convention center. The fast-food chains nearby were perfect for late-night snacks after a night out. The room cleanliness was impressive, but the limited facilities were a drawback overall.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the service was top-notch with exceptional housekeeping. However, the location wasn't as convenient as I had hoped, and the dining options, especially the lack of meaty pizza as advertised, left something to be desired.
I had a great experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and modern, but the dining options were limited. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the location was convenient for my needs.
