I had been in this hotel 10 years ago, it was a okay hotel, not fancy but clean. Now, it seems having changing to another management company and it is very dirty, for example, completely broken window shade for the bathroom, dirty and unchanged linens for new customer (found hairs in bed from previous customer who sleep the same bed). Very noisy at midnight due to very poor insulation of the walls. I will not come back to this hotel and not recommend any one until they make a fundamental change.

The Best Value in Downtown Chicago
The staff was both kind and professional. The hotel is in a great, walkable location, surrounded by a plethora of diverse and delicious restaurants. It is close to the Red Line for quick, easy access to the rest of Chicago; the Loop is only one stop away. Combined with the price, I haven't found a better value in downtown Chicago.

Liked: Cleanliness
Although the building is old, the location is great, it's quiet, the WiFi is good, and it's reasonably priced. The hotel is a block and a half from the Cermak-Chinatown CTA L stop, which provides great access to just about everything Chicago has to offer. Despite what you might have heard, traveling on the CTA is quick, cheap and safe to most places. As with any city, there are places to avoid, ask a native or a cop if you have any doubts. You're not going to be spending a lot of time at the hotel when you're awake, so the lack of amenities (no coffeemaker, no mini fridge, no microwave, etc.) can be overlooked, unless you're fussy. In that case, there's a Springhill Suites 3 blocks south on Wentworth. There are many good places to eat, and not just Chinese food. There are also a lot of interesting little shops, some with kitschy goods and others with better merchandise, which makes it fun to stroll down the street and take a look. You never know what treasure you might find.

If you’re looking for a cheap place to sleep this beats any motel 6. It’s not the nicest place but for a 15 minute train ride to downtown Chicago, it beat all other accommodations I could find by over $100, I will definitely stay here every single time I’m in Chicago which is quite a few per year

The smell in our room was SO bad, it hit you in the face every time upon entering, and you're nose can’t ever really get used to it. There’s no elevator so not accessible for people with disabilities. Regarding the safety of the area, there was a shooting right across the street one of the nights, so there’s that. The area was also noisy with drunken people yelling up and down the street until 3am. It was really hard to rest after long days of exploring the city. Our health kept deteriorating after every night with the smell and noises. Location was great and in the perfect spot for us, we took the water taxi straight into downtown so that was really convenient. Considering all the cons vs. 1 pro, I wouldn’t say it was worth it, despite the lower price, as the cons cost us our ability to enjoy the trip without feeling exhausted.
