Close to ORD, parking included in stay + close to plenty of restaurants
Pros:

Location from the airport: excellent.
Parking: included = amazing
Staff: extremely professional.
Cleanliness: bedding could have been better checked.
Overall: will definitely stay again because of the value for your money.

Cons:

Was a little bummed by the fact that both beds had to have the bedding changed but people aren't perfect so it was understandable.

Good location for airport
Pros:

Close to airport & restaurants.

Cons:

Did not realize this hotel is next to railroad tracks, and was noisy. Street noise. But I do live in a very quiet rural area and only hear cows mooing and birds/wildlife. If you are used city traffic/noise, this location may not be an issue. 😀
