Kimberly, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

If you want to stay in a motel right out of the 1950’s, this is the place for you!
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Convenient and inexpensive

Great location for Edgewater and Andersonville. Convenient to several popular gay bars. Inexpensive for adults, but probably not recommended for families.

6/10 Good

A little bit of upgrade & this place could shine!

It's really a motel and the desk clerk was very friendly. The room was very clean but needed updating. The comforters were polyester and kind of icky, although clean. I just think for the price we paid, which was comparable to other budget hotels in the Chicago area, that they could upgrade and it would make a big difference. We only needed to stay there for one night because we were dropping off our son to college, as we're other guests. It was very close to the college, which was convenient. It's also very close to Clark St., which has a lot of great restaurants and we found two within a mile that were excellent. The neighborhood immediately around the the motel was a little rough, and a little loud at night, but overall it suited our needs. They do have parking which is free and very convenient. They also have breakfast, which I believe is complimentary, but we had other plans for breakfast so we didn't get a chance to check it out.

I’d rather not comment on this motel the only positive I can comment is the front desk staffs are nice that’s all.

The irresponsible hotel

When we arrived at 6 p.m., the room was full. The reservation I made five months ago was canceled without any notice. We had to look for an inn for the night in a hurry. Everyone, please pay attention to this irresponsible hotel.
3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value with parking but not glam. Clean but stuffy smell.
Barbara, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

My husband could not breath freely m the smell in the room we didn’t stay
Stephanie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check-in staff was abrupt and rude. Another potential customer even left and went to a different motel/hotel. This same staff member was more pleasant on check-out.

Great place to stay
Michelle, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Front desk closed for over 3 hours in the afternoon. Heat, didn’t get above 63. Terribly noisy traffic intersection.
Theresa, 1-night trip

Very close to work location. The updates that have been made are nice.
Robyn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great budget choice

Great price, parking, chill and nothing shady going on. Felt safe. Beds were comfy and the room was clean.
Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dangerous Hotel

This is not just a hotel, it’s a housing unit. Most of the rooms are people living there full time. It was incredibly dangerous. The stairs are facing the back of the hotel I’m a dark hallway and there were people gathered there and drug deals happening all hours of the night. There were people walking around and knocking on doors all night long. People were gathered in the parking lot by the trash cans (which are in the parking lot) all afternoon and night. The room had a horrendous smell. Bed was incredibly uncomfortable. I was genuinely scared to be there. Only stayed one night and left as soon as the sun came out in the morning. BE VERY CAUTIOUS IF STAYING HERE!!

Charles, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Desk clerk (John) was rude and got my guest kicked out of the room.
Ralph, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Over all not awful, room was clean and well kept. Turned the ac on before we went out so the room would be cool when we got back, instead we walked into what felt like a sauna. Front desk said when it gets cold out it just pushes hot air and gave us a box fan. Which we had to go back and switch out because it didnt work. The staff were kind, and the lot was nice and private. Check in was easy, and it was nice and quiet. Bathroom was cute with vintage pink tiles.
