Relatively affordable but still overpriced, and there's nothing great about it.
Pros:

It was more affordable than most hotels in the Chicago area.

Cons:

The printer did not have sufficient ink to print properly, so I had to walk to a nearby store to print some documents I needed. The AC keeps turning on automatically even though I turned it off several times. Hot water was gone on the last morning I stayed, so I couldn't take a comfortable shower.
