I checked with the hotel the night before arrival and found that for the second time in two months Hotels.Com had cancelled my booking in error. The staff member, Ronnie, rebooked my room and even offered a better rate than I had for the minor inconvenience.

Very cute place, rooms are very specious. Our bed king was super hard (almost stiff like a board). The pillows on the other side were super soft you need three to sleep comfy. Parking was nice right by property no issues. Everything was walking distance. Sadly no breakfast options. We were right next to elevator and glad didn't hear noise. Bathroom specious with seperate toilet and shower. Close to everything loved the location.

A grand old lady of a hotel
The Carleton is a lovely old place in an excellent location. You are steps from all that downtown Oak Park has to offer as well as the Green Line for trips into Chicago. It's a bit run down and could have been a bit cleaner. I appreciated the larger room with the kitchenette.

Made me feel like I was in a castle—very luxurious despite being so old. Wish the parking lot right behind had a few more lights. As a solo traveler I was a tad nervous getting things out of the trunk and walking alone even though it wasn’t that far. Linens were clean and comfy. I would recommend adding some non slip stickers for the tub as it was slick. I wish I could’ve stayed longer actually.

Old school classy
Great room, it was clean, and had plenty of space. The hotel felt classy, but old classy, which is cool. Front desk was friendly. Bar down stairs had a great burger, and beer too.
