Room was spotless and the staff were courteous. My only issue is with Expedia’s lack of clear disclosure that parking is not free — hiding that in the fine print feels misleading.
Fairly new hotel in excellent location. Easy walk to Northwestern Campus, CTA and Metra train stations (trips to downtown Chicago), and lots of dining and shopping options,
Clean and efficient, great affordable location near Northwestern campus and many shops and restaurants. The gym and hot tub were great, but the pool is pretty small. Breakfast was also very good. Would overall recommend this hotel.
I was only here, overnight to attend a funeral. The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful and provided great customer service. The only mishap was the coffee making in my room, didn't work, but that was no big deal. Great Hotel!
I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. One of the standout features was how quiet and uncrowded it was, which made for a peaceful and relaxing experience. I felt very safe throughout my stay, both in the hotel and the surrounding area.
