We went to Chicago for the weekend and wanted a place that was affordable and in a good location. We were right off Michigan Avenue for shopping and able to walk to Navy Pier for drinks at night. The hotel was great and the staff were very helpful as well. The room was spacious and this might have been the best hotel shower I have ever used. I would return to this property without question if my travels take me back to chicago. There are also a lot of good restaurant choices within walking distance, both casual and nicer places.

The room was a pretty decent size. I stayed with 4 kiddos. I was in a standard double room and we were not cramped.
The room was clean and the bedding and pillows were WONDERFUL. I have seriously NEVER had a bed so comfortable.
The bathroom was the tiniest I have ever seen. You really do have to sit on the toilet sideways. Turn the sink on slowly so as not to be drenched.

Some of the staff were wonderful There was a younger (probably early 20's?) black lady and a middle aged white woman (probably 60?) that were both rude and acted very put out with any request for help or directions. The other 3 ladies were wonderful and very helpful.
I purchased through lastminutetravel and got the room for $43 a night for 4 nights.
I will stay again. With this hotel being in a nice area, accomidations wonderful and just a few steps from Michigan Ave. It is well worth a few snotty front desk ladies and a tiny bathroom.

Also be aware that they charge a $50 per day hold to your card upon check in for a deposit, I complained and they took it off through. May not matter to some but a family on a tight budget may not be able to lose $200 of their vacation funds.

Although the standard rooms were quite nice, the small bathrooms were fitted with a large sink and a bulky wooden support which obstructs your seat. You'll need to sit sideways in order for things to work out. My colleague's room (1821) reeked of cigarette smoke which was attempted to be covered by an air freshener. The emotionless elderly receptionist coldly offered another room. The signs in the hotel indicate the fitness center is on the 3rd floor, but the room's directory (black binder) indicated it's on the 15th floor. The center consists of a couple of treadmills and 3 sets of small weights (that I didn't see). If you want (wireless) internet, you must spend time in the lobby, or spend $9.95 per day.

I absolutely loved this hotel. I was a bit afraid when I booked it, because of the extremely low nightly rate of $58 (which I acquired through the hotel's website), but it proved to be a wise decision!

After reading some reviews on TripAdvisor, I thought the rooms would be incredibly small and cramped. I was actually very surprised and satisfied when I walked into my Queen Deluxe room on the 14th floor.

It was more than adequate for my budget trip to Chicago. The room was larger than I expected and even had a desk area to plan out my daily activities, which was a plus. The room was spacious and I did not feel claustrophobic once over my three night stay.

The queen bed was comfortable and had nice clean white linens. The mattress was a bit firm for my liking, but they can't please everyone when it comes to firmness or softness.

I had also read some reviews on TripAdvisor about the "awkward" bathrooms. My bathroom was fine. It was on the small side, but big enough for one to use. It had a lovely faucet sink and a typical shower/bath setup.

The only thing I can critique about my room was the TV. The picture was incredible fuzzy, but I suppose I wasn't in Chicago to watch TV anyways.

All in all, the Queen Deluxe room (their most basic room) proved to be a comforting and welcoming space with enough room for the solo traveler or intimate couple. It has all the amenities a hotel should have and came at a price that couldn't be beat.

The location was awesome too; one block off the Magnificent Mile and in a central and safe area with a 24hr Dunkin Donuts right beside the hotel.

Will I stay at this hotel again? Most definitely. The friendly staff, safe and welcoming rooms, plus affordable prices make this hotel a no brainer! Thanks Inn of Chicago for the awesome stay in your city!
