Small but huge value located within walking distance of many of the Chicago sights and only a block from a Big Bus tour bus stop. Very clean rooms, excellent full service breakfast and extremely friendly staff. Really affordable rates for Chicago’s city center. Last, but not least, FREE parking for the length of your stay with only a minimal charge for extra hours. Great experience for us.

I have spent 30+ years in hotel management. I was very pleased with this property. Very comfortable bed! Slept great even though my room was right over Lincoln Ave. I never heard traffic. The gentleman at the desk was very helpful. He heard me having difficulty opening my room door and he literally ran to help me. (I walk on crutches and this room was on 2nd floor. Nothing to be done about that as it was a last minute booking.) Room was great. Clean, no odors or missed trash. The only problem was the bedside lamp closest to the bathroom was not plugged in properly so it kept going on and off. The alarm clock radio was plugged into this lamp so it didn't keep time right. That's why only a 4/5 rating. I will definitely stay here again!

Spacious and nice room. Noise every night, weird and rude staff. I had pre-paid the stay, but they charged me additionally. Every afternoon I ´ve had to go to front-desk to re-activate my door card for next day.
