Only in case of emergency. Sleep in chair at airport if you're looking for sleep...
Pros:

That I was indoors overnight

Cons:

TV didn't work. Was like trying to break into fort Knox to get to my room. Bed was uncomfortable. Roaches the size of my thumb... I didn't even want to set my bag down when I saw the damn roaches and I slept terribly. The bathroom was nasty. Maybe a good spot for a drug dealer or a prostitute but not for a man and his wife/ girlfriend. Also, traffic was loud and they apparently sprung for the cheapest windows possible and I heard every damn car that drove by, people walking by car doors slamming... might as well have been outside. Oh, and the coffee I was looking forward to when I checked out was not there. Overall I'd say never again, under any circumstances.

We got what we paid for; a cheap place to lay our head for less than 8 hours before our 6am flight.
Pros:

Great price and location to Midway

Cons:

The curtains allowed streetlight and sunlight into the room, we heard noises from the neighbors all night long and the beds were not very comfortable; all making it very difficult to get restful sleep.
