I stayed in Oak Park with some friends, so we were in 3 rooms total. The hotel was nice. The location was good and very close to the L station, so it was amazingly easy to get to loop and downtown. We didn't use the restaurants.
The hotel is vintage. This means dated to some extent but the overall it comes together nicely. Very clean. The bath lacked much vanity space but my chest was right beside the bathroom door so no issue.
I rated an 8 because I did experience that there was no service. I stayed 2 nights. I am fine not changng the towels for 1 day but would have liked a re-stock of the coffee. Also the coffee maker leaked which created a mess to clean up.
I did fnd the walls thing and the room next to me had the TV on all night. I called at 4AM and the desk person said they would call then to have them turn it down but it didn't happen. (I could hear the TV clearly so would have heard if their phone rang.)
I would definlty stay here again.
Lovely older property with large nicely appointed rooms. Convenient to walking everywhere. Have stayed here before and will again. If visiting Oak Park this is a great option!
We had a wonderful weekend at the Carleton. The staff were very friendly and the room was beautiful. Nice quiet area and unique shopping within walking distance. The restaurants on site were awesome. La Notte was the perfect Italian experience ~ from the impeccable menu and perfect music to the memorable visit with the very knowledgeable chef, Giovanni.
Poor Philโs was great as well with a very pleasant staff. Overall a fantastic weekend~We will be back for sure๐๐
Wonderful stay! This hotel offers clean, quiet and convenient accommodation in a great location. Convenient parking where I felt my vehicle was secure. Staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend
This is a great property in the middle of a very nice area. We walked to the Frank Lloyd Wright house and Trinity Chapel. Lots of great shops and restaurants nearby.
