A nice room, updated and comfortable! Plenty of places nearby for dining and convenience. My only gripe is that the walls seemed to be made of paper, so turn your white noise machines to 10.

My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights for an anniversary! Right when we walked in the staff were so friendly and accommodating! They have 24/7 coffee, tea and water bar! The hotel is super clean and the room was so nice and the beds are so so comfy! The breakfast is grab and go style with the perfect variety! This hotel has everything you need, from a little Market are, breakfast, ice machine, pool, gym and a top of the notch cleanliness facility! I would recommend this hotel to everyone and anyone! Will stay here again in the future!! We loved our stay 😁

Value for your money

Conveniently located to O'Hare airport - the rooms have new furniture and looks - the equipment work very well. The main lobby area is open and clear - the swimming pool is easy to get to.

Friendly staff

The evening lady checking us in was very kind, and so was the lady working the overnight shift as we had to check out at 3am to catch a flight. It was comfortable and overall clean, but unfortunately a pillowcase on one of the beds had something disgusting on it. We just put it on the floor of our room as we were only there for one night. Amazing location for the airport.

There was hair in the bathroom in the shower and the floor. The mattress was worn out with noticeable dips in it. It was very close to the Ohare rental car return so very convenient and the breakfast was good.

Disliked: Room comfort
The building was obviously constructed with the cheapest materials possible as the walls and floors were incredibly thin. All noise from the hallways, adjacent rooms and floors about and below traveled easily. The non carpeted floors did not help with the noise from above and only accentuated the sounds of suitcases and chairs rolling. I would highly recommend requesting a to floor room.
