Right room for the right stay
The hotel was located in a very quiet, secured newer area with plenty of parking. The room we booked had two rooms with bathrooms attached with a joining living room and kitchenette with a dining set. All was very clean and kept. A Costco was located about 3 minutes away, which we were able to buy certain items for meals and store perishables in a full size refrigerator. We also enjoyed our time at the indoor pool and billiard table area. Special thanks to Marc for attending to our needs at the front desk. Great stay!

Everything per standard for a residence inn. We stayed for 3 nights and it was as expected. The location is far from downtown Chicago and hence not a recommended spot if you plan to visit downtown. Traffic to downtown is horrible everyday. Bfast was a repeat for 3 days and no bread was provided only option was to eat bagels or English muffins.

Great stay. Staff needs to be more knowledgeable about what is around the property. The man at the desk told us there was only fast food around. Within 2 miles we found tons of sit down real dinning restaurants.

Family overnight stay
Our family scheduled a night and we wish we could have stayed longer. The property is great. The room was clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the breakfast and the staff was friendly and professional. I'd stay again and would recommend to others.
