Can do better than this!
Pros:

Clean sheets on bed at least...

Cons:

had to call the shuttle and no one said this especially when coming from outside the US. Waited at airport for almost one hour without pickup.. Room had litter in bathroom. Lift was broken and had to carry my bags up the stairs very late at night 💔

Convenient with free shuttle to O'Hare. Reasonably priced if you just want a clean bed for the night.
Pros:

The rooms were spacious and clean.

Cons:

The foyer lets it down but don't let it put you off. No bar or seating area in the evening. The rooms are great tho. I would use again if I had to be near O'Hare.

The room was really clean and nice. The breakfast had a good selection of protein and coffee was good
Pros:

It was fairly close to airport after a late arrival and the headache of getting out of O’hare and a rental car I just wanted to crash

Perfekt, wer preiswert in der Nähe von Chicago nächtigen möchte.
Pros:

Großzügiges Zimmer, mit Waschbecken im Raum und getrennter Toilette/Dusche. Frühstück für amerikanische Verhältnisse gut! Sehr freundliches Personal. Je nach Verkehr in 30 Minuten mit dem Auto in Downtown Chicago. Nah am Flughafen.

Cons:

Hätte ringsrum etwas aufgeräumter sein können, aber das ist Meckern auf hohem Niveau. Für den Preis wirklich unschlagbar!

Pros:

Vicinanza con aeroporto. Staff molto gentile e disponibile. Stanza grande

Cons:

La struttura avrebbe bisogno di un rinnovo, arredi datati e anche non in buone condizioni. Tutta la struttura è piuttosto trascurata
