We've stayed at this hotel several times now using the "Park & Fly" option. It's great because it's close to Midway, and it's easy to get to (we come from Iowa to Chicago to fly out because it's less expensive). We've tried flying out of O'Hare, but getting to & from the airport and the hotel options, then using the interstates in that area, we always end up getting on the wrong road or something, and all the tollways up that way are just a mess. Midway is much easier to access.

Anyway, this hotel is great for the Park & Fly option. It's very clean, and now that it has been remodeled the rooms are updated nicely. Good beds, and the pool area is nice also. The breakfast opens very early (5am, I believe) for those that need to fly out early. The trolley system to & from Midway is very convenient and easy to use. We've never had to wait long, and the drivers are very courteous. The front desk staff at this hotel are good, check-in is quick and painless with no confusion.

We will continue to use this hotel every time we fly out of Midway, which is generally twice a year for vacation.

spent 4 nights here over canadian civic holiday (1st weekend in aug) the renovations were complete and we actually got invited to an opening reception ( the kids got little pillow squishees) Room was clean and average in size. The pool is salt water which is a bit weird. We had trouboe with the hot tub. one day it wasn;t hot enough, the next day it was so hot that it turned our skin bright red. towels seemed to be in short supply at the pool too. -check before you get in.
There was a trolley that takes you to the airport where you can catch the L train downtown- we did this for 3 days and enjoyed the trip. The tolley drivers were very nice.
The mexican place across the road was inexpensive and quite good. As was the hotdog stand acorss the road

This is an interesting property, located about 5 minutes south of Midway Airport. There is a large cluster of hotels sharing a common lot, including a Holiday Inn express, Hilton Graden Inn and three brands of Marriott -a mainline Marriott, a Courtyard, and a Fairfield Inn.

This Fairfield was one of the nicer ones I've been at - very close to a Courtyard in room size and layout, with interior halls. The free breakfast options were very nice, waffles, hard boiled eggs, breakfast sandwiches, and other continental options.

Transportation to and from Midway is via a free 24 hour shuttle. I waited about 10 minutes for it at the airport and it was on call when I needed to depart from the hotel.

At the time of my stay, there was significant construction going on in the lobby area and I'm not sure if there were other areas impacted as well.

Room Internet access was via a free wireless hotspot.

Other than a lack of sitdown restaurant, I can't imagine why one would choose the Courtyard across the street over this property. There were numerous eating establishments in the area for take out or dine in service.
