I stayed here 10/20-22/08 and was very disappointed with the accomodations. First and I know for the price not to expect The Ritz, this place needs lots of touch up, from replacing the worn, dirty entry carpet, to paint, furnishings etc. Secondly, DO NOT and I repeat, DO NOT book the Chicago Room if you have any intention of sleeping more than five hours a night. I was mistakenly moved to this room (my bad for not noticing the change when I checked in) and it is literally no more than 30 feet from the very active Blue Line CTA train tracks. This may be the cheap hotel room used in the "Blues Brothers" movie when Jake and Elwood were almost sleeping on the tracks themselves.
Making matters worse, the owners did not return my call when I noticed the room switch and since then can't remember why they moved me from my originally booked room, which is on the front of the house and would have been much quieter.
On the positive side, the neighborhood is pretty cool, the price is right and if you're brave and a stunt man, you can literally hop the train as it speeds by.

I felt very lucky to get the Bucktown Apartment (across the street from the main building) during the weekend of the Chicago Marathon. Five of us stayed there, and it was very economical. The apartment was clean and spacious, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The neighborhood is great, and there is plenty of street parking. The only slight glitch was some confusion when one of my friends unexpectedly tried to get her bags into the apartment before it was ready. Regardless, I definitely would stay at the Wicker Park Inn again.

Great place in a lovely leafy neighborhood in Chicago. Mikky was a great host and the apartment we had (opposite main inn) was clean, spacious and much better than expected.
Will definitely stay here on my next visit to Chicago (and the one after that!).

My wife and I recently spent two nights at the Wicker Park Inn and it turned out to be a great find on the internet. An outstanding location and value-near restaurants and shopping and the El (although we had a car and parking was not a problem). The Wicker Park neighborhood is an interesting and enjoyable area for walking. We stayed in the Tuscan room and we particularly liked the private entrance. We would recommend the Inn and we would definitely stay there again.

We love it at the Wicker Park Inn. It is a great urban B&B with everything you need. Mikky is great and is always around to help. The location could not be better. Easy access to tons of shopping, and restaurants and easy access to taxis, buses, and the EL. I cannot say enough good things about this place. Also, for the money it is the best lodging in Chicago.
