Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Very poor — multiple reviews describe dirty rooms, urine/drug smells, hairballs, unclean microwaves, lack of daily cleaning and overflowing tub/drain issues.
Service
8.5
Mixed but often positive at the front desk — several guests noted friendly staff and prompt refunds in some cases, though on-call/customer-service instances were reported as 'SUPER rude' and a few check-ins were handled rudely.
Location
9.5
Strong — repeatedly noted as near airport, stores and restaurants, with convenient transit access to Midway and good parking immediately outside rooms.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed — some guests reported updated, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and good air conditioning; others reported torn furniture, bad odors, damaged rooms and unsanitary bathrooms.
Amenities
6
Moderate — rooms often included microwave, refrigerator and stove and good parking, but lacked basics like ice machines and complimentary breakfast; some amenity items were dirty.
Value for Money
5.5
Mixed — a few guests found it a reasonable option given Chicago prices, while others felt the price (examples of $228/2 nights) did not justify missing basics and cleanliness issues.
Food and Beverage
4.6
Below average — multiple complaints about no breakfast/continental service and lack of basic dining items (silverware, cups) for the price paid.
Overall Experience
5.5
Mixed to negative — some guests had acceptable stays (comfortable beds, good location), but many experienced severe cleanliness, safety/noise and service issues that led to refunds or leaving early.

Just there.
Pros:

The breakfast was no breakfast fast compared to other similar hotels. The fact that no daily cleaning of the rooms sounds strange to me

Cons:

They should serve proper breakfast

Pros:

I loved the comfortability of the bed, I had a microwave, refrigerator and a stove (I didn't use the stove but it was nice to see it). The room was very spacious and the air worked excellent in the room. I loved that I had a very good parking spot right outside of my room so I was able to watch my vehicle straight from my room.

Cons:

My room would've been perfect for me if the floors were properly swept, the drain in the tub was fixed because as I was taking my shower, the water would fill up to my ankles with all of the dirty water I've just washed off my body, so unsanitary and disgusting. I had to go take a better shower at a relatives house the next night to avoid this from happening again. Last but not least, the microwave had food still stuck onto the microwave plate, so it definitely wasn't cleaned properly, so of course I didn't use it. And the room also had a bad odor in it but I sprayed to fixed that situation. I also didn't like that the hotel doesn't provide ice.

It was fine but will not stay again
Pros:

It was good enough, not super dirty

Cons:

There was no ice machine, could not get towels when we needed them. The customer service that was on call was SUPER rude. Bed was smaller than a king I ordered, just a sheet given with a tiny blanket not big enough for 2

DO. NOT. BOOK.
Pros:

Not a single thing.

Cons:

The property was dirty, smelled of urine and drugs, there was screaming and yelling, loud music. The room itself was disgustingly dirty, unkept, and damaged. We didn’t even stay the single night, we went downstairs and got a refund and found a different hotel.

Pros:

considering the crazy prices in Chicago, it was the only reasonable option for me. The standard is ok, it is located about 5 km (3 mi) from the Midway station, from where yo can travel directly to downtown via the Chicago L; to reach Midway first, you need to use buses, I took the one that goes from Ford City directly to Midway

Pros:

The room was nice and updated. It was clean and didn’t have a smell to it

Cons:

They should have a breakfast or continental at least for the price you’re paying. I paid 228 for 2 nights most places have silverware, cups, cooking equipment but we would have to pay extra which if I’m paying that much already it should be with the hotel. Other than that it was good
