I’ve stayed at this property off and on since 1993. I’ve seen this property grow from an almost raunchy hotel to an American standard hotel. My last stay at this hotel was in March 2001.
PLUSES…
1.) rooms are significantly cleaner than back in the 90's and 2001
2.) lobby is much nicer
3.) mattress is very good, entirely better than back in the days
CONCENRS…
i.) Polish speaking nationals. yes, they now have 99% Polish speaking personnel in the hotel which either do NOT speak ANY English or too little to make heads or tails of anything they attempt to say or even comprehend. This is NOT positive! The United States is an open door, however, we MUST insist that people who are employed in this country at some point MUST speak some English; even if they are predominantly in housekeeping. How do these people have their working papers for the country anyway? They probably don't ... sharing SS#!
ii.) toilet brush REQUIRED in the bathroom
iii.) no iron or ironing board in the room
iii.) no refrigerator in the room

Also, I didn't appreciate leaving U$100.00 smoke security. In addition, they quabble about 800 phone calls.

It is a good hotel for one night. It is what I would refer to as a quickie hotel.

U$85.00/night including the tax is too much! The best price is U$69.00 including tax.

We have stayed at this property three differant times . Each time we were very pleased that we picked this hotel. It is loacted close to the Lincoln Pk Zoo and of course Historic Wrigley Field . There are also a good choice of restaurant/clubs within walking distance and the area is safe with a obvious police presence in the area. They offer a nice expanded contnl breakfast in the morning . The staff is helpful at giving directions . This property fills up fast when the Cubs are at home . I would book well in advance of your planned stay....

We were very pleased with the staff and our room. Public transportation was a short walk away. We felt safe in the neighborhood, and there was many dining options with in walking distance. The staff was very friendly and helpful to us as we were first time visitors to the city. We would definitly recommend and stay again.

I came with my 16 year old grandson on spring break. The room was excellent. Clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Security of having to use your room card for the elevator was nice. The continental breakfast was good. The location was handy to bus and train transportation.
