“MDA Apartments are a great deal”

MDA Chicago City Apartments

May 10, 2006
7/7 found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed in the Chicago MDA apartments for 3 days in May 2006. I would recommend these to anyone. We had looked at Trip Advisor and saw one very negative review and several positive ones. The negative review was from someone who arrived there before the building was finished- negative- rightly so. However, we elected to stay there looking at the more recent reviews. These apartments are in a made-over office building in Chicago. The MDA apartments are very nicely located- between Michigan and State Street on Lake, just below the river. You can board all of Chicago's trains within 4 blocks of the hotels. The apartments are partly residential and partly short-term stay. When you arrive you sign a lease; it's an apartment, not a hotel. Our studio looked brand new- in fact, I had to take the hair dryer out of the plastic bag and the box. It comes with a full kitchen- regular sized refrigerator, full stove, and dishwasher, washer and dryer, plus other nice things like a coffee maker, toaster, corkscrew, glasses, utensils, etc. Indeed, this is a furnished apartment. It also comes with more hotel-like things- nice towels, shampoo, soap, etc. There is a flat screen TV and free Internet service is included, but the phone doesn't allow long-distance service- no problem for us, we had our cell phones. The price was much cheaper than other downtown Chicago hotels, and because it's an apartment, the price you see is the price you pay (all of the taxes that are added onto hotels aren't added here). But, there is no maid service in the morning. We had plenty of towels for the 3 days- I'm not sure whether we could have gotten fresh ones and fresh bed linens if we'd asked. We paid $155/night for 3 nights. The only slightly negative thing was that it is very near several train lines and you do hear the trains somewhat. They stop late at night, but start up again in the morning. But, to us, the location more than made up for that minor inconvenience, and I've stayed in much louder hotel rooms. I'd recommend staying here if you want a good, clean downtown location for much less than the major hotels.

“Great Place To Stay”

MDA Chicago City Apartments

Jan 4, 2006
1/2 found this review helpful

This place is a great place to stay long or short term. My Girlfriend and I wanted to stay somewhere in the city and we found MDA to be perfect. The location could not be better for shopping and dinning. The building is newly remodeled with a very trendy look. The furniture in our apartment was remarkable, very nice looking and comfortable. We could not have been happier with our stay and we will be returning!!!!

“Best Place to Stay in Chicago”

MDA Chicago City Apartments

Jan 4, 2006
2/3 found this review helpful

This apartment was amazing! The location is perfect and more importantly you feel at home. The building has had many updates and looks brand new, the apartment itself was very comfortable with a beautiful view. The rooms were all very clean and didn't miss a beat when it came to having items available. The building also has a great work out room and a theatre room which you can watch movies in. I highly recommend staying here and can't wait to go back to Chicago and stay at the MDA Apartments!

“Great taste of Chicago Living”

1/2 found this review helpful

My boyfriend and I stayed at the MDA Chicago City Apartments over New Years Eve (2005) weekend and were amazed how beautiful the apartments were as well as how close we were to the heart of Chicago. The apartment is located right in between Michigan Avenue and State Street which made shopping and site seeing easily accessible and very convenient. The apartment itself was equipped with all of the necessities we needed for the weekend including a washer/dryer, dishwasher, full size refrigerator, and much, much more! The décor of the apartment was absolutely amazing and very modern which suited our taste just right. With two flat screens (one in the bedroom and one in the living room) and the leather couches we felt right at home. This was by far the best New Years Eve we have ever had and we will definitely be doing it again next year and hopefully staying at the MDA Chicago City Apartments.

“Fantastic Location”

MDA Chicago City Apartments

Jan 3, 2006
2/3 found this review helpful

This building is now complete and the rooms are furnished beautifully as of December 1st. I stayed there with my family and we did not experience any of the issues that were previously posted. After reading these postings, I called and spoke to their office about the information and they talked to me at length about what had happened with the opening of the building. The booking sights, such as Travelocity, Expedia, etc are not willing to provide contact information for the people that have booked accommodations which made it very difficult to contact each person to notify them of the construction issues and inform them that they have been assigned to other locations. They are offering one free night for a next stay to anyone that had issues. It was more convenient to stay here instead of a hotel because it included a full size kitchen. We had a great time and plan to stay again next year.
