Rated exceptional, I would give it a solid 2 stars
The people were kind. The only negatives were the bathtubs need resurfacing and new towels would be nice.

It was great. I lost my key card twice i was given a new one both times. I would like to mention someone was at the desk each time i went whether it 9am or 2am. Staff is great. Quick easy check in and check out. Out of all the inconveniences i faced on my trip to Chicago, this hotel was NOT one of them. Wasn’t my first choice but will probably be on my list when i come back

You need to remove this location as an option to reserve from your site. I trusted Hotels.com when this affordable hotel came up, however it is extremely UNSAFE. We did not even stay for our 2nd night out of fear. Hotels.com should provide a refund for the night we couldn't stay at this absolutely dirty and unsafe location.

The worst experience my family and I have ever had. We ended up leaving and renting another hotel. It’s chiraq (look it up). Not safe at all!

The room was spacious and looked clean and modern. We coundnt figure out ehy we didnt have cold water in the sink, and the soap dispenser wouldnt dispense. We told a staff member about our concerns and the problem with the water wasnt looked at. They gave us some courtesy soaps to counter the broken dispenser. My husband found on the second day that someone had just turned off the cold valve under the sink, but it was disapointing that no one seemed to help us with this. We also found a hair tie in the soap dispenser. It was nice to have the courtesy breakfast. It was simple but good.

Perfectly adequate for stopover between flights
This is a basic hotel that is fine for a one night stay between flights. The management is very accomodating and helpful. I have stayed here several times, I would again.

Love the free airport transport. This is a MOTEL. I thought it was a hotel. Scary part of town. Lots of noises from cleaning/laundry/maintenance , as well as surrounding area.

There were a few missing light bulbs. No soap in the dispenser. Toilet ran and had a small leak
Breakfast was ok. Scrambled eggs, hashbrowns and sausage. Also served some cold cereals.
If you are looking for a quick place to stay, it will suit your needs. Very close to Midway Airport.

Lacking the Basics
Room was booked as non-smoking and although signage indicated it was, the room smelled of smoke and there cigarette burns in the bathroom. Blankets on the beds had cigarette holes burned through them.
No handles, bars, soap or shelves to put anything on in the shower.
TV was next to useless ... It was a streaming TV but clearly the owners don't provide internet capable of supporting streaming TVs.
The room was clean though.
