What guests loved the most

“The staff was super friendly (talked to a man and a woman and they were both very helpful), the bed was great and the room was clean. Also the bus stop to the loop was only 2 minutes away. You could have your coffee to go in the morning which was a plus!”

“The beds were comfortable and the complementary breakfast was a plus, the staff was also very nice”

“Hotel is in a very good location, it's less than 10 minutes walking to the Lincoln park and then you get superb view of the lake and Chicago skyline, on the other hand cross the street you got walmart neibourghhood store to get everything cheap and great availablity. The whole area feels safe even walk out in late night. Hotel itself is clean and well organized. Perfect place to stay in Chicago.”

“We were very pleased with the location of this hotel. We could walk to Lake Michigan and to several restaurants and stores. The staff was wonderful!! So welcoming. Also, we couldn't get an uber to the airport the morning we were leaving because it was so early and the man at the hotel desk saw that we were in a panic and ran to the end of the street ( at 6:30 am ) to flag down a cab for us!! Amazing!! We would stay here again for sure!!”

, USA

“Nice buffet breakfast. Great location without being in the city centre (and the expense that would incur). Some great bars and restaurants in the locale with very reasonable prices. Not very far to Diversey L-station.”

, United Kingdom

“The breakfast was very generic and no room to make it up or sit.”
