"It’s was very nice and clean"

Regal Inn - Chicago O'Hare Airport

8/10 Good

"I had a great experience here. Was visiting Chicago for two days and found positive reviews for this place & found affordable ~250 for 2 nights. Reserved a single room - 2 queen beds/ max 4 guests. Positives: clean, well maintained, polite staff Downsides: poor wifi (I think since it's open, it is super slow) Overall my expectations were met far & beyond. I was surprised to see the hotel go all booked on a random weekend. Anyway, book in advance is what I would recommend 9/10 place."
