Perfect location! Walking distance to the lively strip!
Jose, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable and Fancy!
Very good hotel to stay with family, because there are kitchenetts and the inroom washer&dryer. The neighborhood is very quiet, and there are lots of places to dine in or shopping flashly. The most favorable was the free breakfast in the Gem museum right across the building!
Mikyung, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great spot
This is a lovely spot. It was quiet, basically a studio apartment with a washing machine. And an easy walk to a coffee shop, bakery, 7-11. The signs inside said they will soon have a Mediterranean restaurant as well.

LOVED THIS HOTEL IN EVERY WAY!
This hotel FAR EXCEEDED my expectations. I selected this hotel for a girls shopping weekend and everyone was absolutely amazed at what a wonderful selection I had made. It was sparkly clean, comfortable, beautiful windows and the included breakfast was the biggest treat. Just hit reserve and enjoy a fabulous urban environment getaway with easy parking and complete safety.

The breakfast was amazing, great Tiffany stain glass to look at while eating. Parking was so easy, and staff were very friendly. Room was clean, a little small but worked great for what we need it for, loved the full kitchen. Will return every time we are in town.

8/10 Very good

It’s a nice little hotel when you are on budget. Clean and spacious.
Maarit, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Suggestions
The place is comfortable although the rooms are small. Suggestions are: Open the restaurant at 7:30 am instead of 8:00 am. All the pillows were way too thick and they had no other pillows available. The blankets were too light and the gym didn't have enough equipment in it.
Adam, 3-night trip

Excellent for a stay in Evanston/Northwestern
Lovely! The suite was large with separate bedroom, and living room/kitchen. It had a washing machine in the bathroom and a dishwasher in the kitchen. Very new. Very clean. Great location. Very friendly staff.
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Brand new place just opened in May. The staff here is so wonderful and I am sure that in time the few hiccups I encountered will be eliminated, especially the parking. Maybe it was just signage.
Mary, 1-night trip

Rooms converted from building's previous usage. Worked out nicer than standard hotel rooms. Two bedroom suite with kitchen/living space. Walking distance to several places. Nice!
