A good spot, if needed.

I appreciated the room. Nowhere do I recall seeing that it doesn't have an elevator, so isn’t accessible, and the front desk staff did not assist with wifi or how to use the heating in the room. In the morning I saw that one of the MANY papers they had on the front desk mentioned the wifi, but again, no mention of it by the front desk staff the night before. I had to look up the heating system online to figure out how to turn it on and use the remote for it. A cheat sheet would have been nice for people less savvy. The room itself was fine. There were burn marks on the curtain and the desk looked rough, but generally speaking it was a room to fall asleep in. If you’re looking to stay a night, you’re probably fine. However, if you have even a weekend stay planned, you can do better.

At first they didn’t even give us the correct room which should have had two beds and it only had one. The first room didn’t even have power in the main room and there were two open beer cans on the table. It didn’t even seem clean. When we got the correct room it hadn’t even been clean there were Dirty wrappers from whoever was there last and there wasn’t even toilet paper in the bathrooom. It was gross and we were worried the sheets weren’t even clean. Don’t go here it’s gross

They didn’t clean the room or bathroom at all. There was a lot of hair and dirt in the bathroom, and there were many items left behind by previous guests in the bedroom.

I had been in this hotel 10 years ago, it was a okay hotel, not fancy but clean. Now, it seems having changing to another management company and it is very dirty, for example, completely broken window shade for the bathroom, dirty and unchanged linens for new customer (found hairs in bed from previous customer who sleep the same bed). Very noisy at midnight due to very poor insulation of the walls. I will not come back to this hotel and not recommend any one until they make a fundamental change.

The Best Value in Downtown Chicago

The staff was both kind and professional. The hotel is in a great, walkable location, surrounded by a plethora of diverse and delicious restaurants. It is close to the Red Line for quick, easy access to the rest of Chicago; the Loop is only one stop away. Combined with the price, I haven't found a better value in downtown Chicago.

Although the building is old, the location is great, it's quiet, the WiFi is good, and it's reasonably priced. The hotel is a block and a half from the Cermak-Chinatown CTA L stop, which provides great access to just about everything Chicago has to offer. Despite what you might have heard, traveling on the CTA is quick, cheap and safe to most places. As with any city, there are places to avoid, ask a native or a cop if you have any doubts. You're not going to be spending a lot of time at the hotel when you're awake, so the lack of amenities (no coffeemaker, no mini fridge, no microwave, etc.) can be overlooked, unless you're fussy. In that case, there's a Springhill Suites 3 blocks south on Wentworth. There are many good places to eat, and not just Chinese food. There are also a lot of interesting little shops, some with kitschy goods and others with better merchandise, which makes it fun to stroll down the street and take a look. You never know what treasure you might find.
