Pubic hairs in the bathroom
It was so terrible the door was kind of broken and had lock rigged on it did not feel safe at all then I go to the bathroom and there are someone's pubic hairs on the toilet, floor and bathtub you could see stains on every piece of furniture in there. the curtains didn't even cover the whole windows so people could look in at you overall a terrible experience we never even unpacked we went and canceled the reservation and instead of canceling it the receptionist charge my card a second time never again

This was the worst decision I’ve made... the whole placed smelled like weed and smoke. They didn’t even have air freshener to help me spray down the place. I asked and she didn’t even a) have any at all or b)ignore my request. I wouldnt go there .. I didn’t even go under the covers ... I made a pillow with my jeans jacket and regular jacket and slept on the bed. Never again...

Good price, good location, big bed and a tv. I came from out of town to see a concert at Reggie's just a short Uber away. No complaints. As long as you are open-minded and realistic with what you are paying, this is a great bargain.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I came from Nigeria for a conference. The venue is about 8 mins drive away. Therefore I needed a cab to drop and pick me up. The hotel management connected me with a driver that I trusted and was very helpful to me. The Manger of the hotel displayed high sense of hospitality and was always there to attend to our my needs. Another aspect I liked was the restaurant right next to the Inn. Great times indeed at Chicago. Capt Maigaskiya

Do not stay here
This was easily the worst place I've stayed in, and for ~$120 per night. I booked through hotels.com, and when I arrived to the front desk, it took the woman 30~ minutes to sort through paper printouts to find my online reservation. I showed her my email confirmation, my hotels.com confirmation, my credit card notification (with charges from Amber Inn), and the woman didn't believe me until she found her paper printout. She calls her coworker and starts cursing and insulting them. I finally get my key, and I walk toward my 'non-smoking room.' I check the room for working lights, water, any visible bugs near the bed, and what amenities are offered. There's a minor musky odor, which smells a little like bad marijuana, but I ignore it because it might be the next room. No shampoo. No toothpaste. No hair dryer. Just 2 bars of soap. I call the front desk and she said, "ok, I'll have someone bring shampoo to your room." No one shows. 20 minutes later, I walk down to the front desk myself, and she tells me that they can't find the hairdryer, but that they have the shampoo. She radios in to the person she sent to find the shampoo and hairdryer, cursing at him, and then he says there's no shampoo OR hair dryer. "We out, we out." She mirrors him. I ask, what type of $120-per-night hotel doesn't have shampoo? I get told that "it's not a hotel, it's a motel." I wake up from a bad night to find 6 bug bites on my leg. I guess the musky smell wasn't weed, but the bugs. Thanks.
