Ok for short stays without big pretentions
It was Okay. Check-in is at 3 p.m., not even one minute before that, so take that into consideration if you are planning to arrive 30 minutes early or something like that. You need to ask for room services if needed. The location is very good. The Red Line is very close to the hotel, and Chinatown has a nice ambiance.

The hotel is great for the price. The first room we had was terrible as there was trash everywhere and the toilet was clogged. However, we went down to the front desk and explained to them what we had walked into and they immediately apologized and gave us a new room. The new room was comfortable and cozy. It worked for what we needed. So if you are looking for a cheap option this is great! Super convenient location as well!

Property needs an entire upgrade. The entire hotel is in ruins. It’s definitely not in any condition to be running a business or charging people period to stay there. The entire establishment was like an abandoned building, with mildew, dirty, and grimy.

You get what you pay for...a cheap room to sleep. Sheets and towels were clean but windows (in our 2nd floor room) didn't appear to lock with a walkway outside.

No frills, no problem
We were wanting to check out the Whitesox Stadium. Plus, we were coming up for The Stones concert at Soldiers Field the next day. Already had a Hotel for that trip. We were looking for a cheaper place for our first night. Accomplished that times 3. The Chinatown hotel has no parking. We parked at a public lot, just a few minutes away. It was fine, and probably cheaper than most Hotel parking charges. We were able to check in early. We even got on the first floor. There are 3 floors, and no elevator. Our room was without any amenities, or wash cloths. The place was very clean. Workers were very friendly. AC worked well. Many restaurants really close.

Awesome location and price. This is right near the red line train station, which will take you to downtown. Not only that, but you’re right in the heart of Chinatown. It was pretty amazing being able to shop at the nearby stores, pick up some bread from the bakery across the street, or visit a restaurant nearby and for it to be a short walk overall! As others have mentioned, the place isn’t the most clean or well kept. I found some light trash under the bed, but I’m not sure that’s fair to count against them. I noticed the blanket had some holes and the desks looked to have cogarette burns. If you’re looking for something fancy, this isn’t it. But if you just want a place to spend the night, I’d highly recommend this place (especially cost-wise).

If you just need a place to sleep and nothing else
This place is a bed, nothing more, pack air freshener and pack light because this place has no elevator, the head post are barely on the carpet is ok, the walls have cracks, bathroom is tiny, and they try to pad their star rating by offering you a can of soda if you blindly give them a 10 start review I stayed there and the bedpost fell off the wall which looks like it was stuck up there with plaster and a prayer, they do not answer room service especially when I asked for toliet paper, the neighborhood is scenic though plenty of restaurants and shopping but for Japanese stuff ( in Chinatown) all bootleg and cheap

the bed had no bedbugs and was somewhat comfortable, but the area looks very ghetto and unsafe and i constantly heard screaming and running around the hallways. walls are also very thin and the window view was a dirty alleyway. also located near red line which is convenient but somewhat unsafe. and its in chinatown so it’s convenient to get breakfast in the morning. the bathroom condition was horrible and the toiletpaper holders were broken and run down. There was only one outlet in the entire room. and no elevator despite there being 3 floors
