Shower floor had thick shelack of filth and grime and god knows what else. Feet sticking to floor in shower!!! Thin throw blanket only on bed along with dirty bed spread. Hard to argue with price and location, but even a one night stay was unbearable. Lastly, were instructed the valet would need 20 minutes to get car - we waited an hour, a fitting end to our stay.

I am not a very picky person and that is especially so when you only pay $130 for a room in downtown Chicago-- you don't expect it to be fabulous, but you do expect it to be clean. The room was so small we could hardly get a round the beds and the decor looked like it hadn't been updated in 20 years. None of us would walk in the room without our shoes on because the carpet was so disgusting. I would compare it to a motel off the freeway in the middle of nowhere that you would pay $29.95/night or maybe pay for by the hour . We left and went across the street to the Marriott Courtyard. They said they routinely get customers like us. I will say the location is great and the staff was very nice and they took $40 off our bill without us really griping . Pay the extra bucks for somewhere decent.

Traveling with two teenage kids, we paid extra for the "deluxe suite." It was filthy. There were still crumbs on the floor and the bed sheets were NOT changed (there was someone else's hair in the bed already! How Gross!). The room smelled like dirty socks. The bathroom door was off the hinges. The bathroom had mold on the sink vanity. There were candy wrappers in the corners of the room. The TV remote did not work. The A/C rattled us out of the room. We ran out of this flea infested firetrap after staying one hour. We paid for -- and completely enjoyed -- the marriot courtyard direct across the street. This is the ONLY post I have ever made on this website.

This has to be the sleeziest, dirtiest, most disgusting hotel I have ever encountered. No heat, no hot water, leaking toilet and sink, window didn't close all of the way, filthy carpet, dingy linens, no customer service...The front desk was no help in correcting any of the problems with the room or with moving us into another one. (I actually doubt they had another one in any better condtion to move us into.) This hotel should be condemned. It's hard to believe the health department doesn't close them down because of all the mold, filth, and leaking urine from the toilet. I can't believe they have the audacity to charge money for these rooms. They should close down while they do renovations. This hotel is in a great location and would do very well if it were not in such deplorable condition. One would think that Red Roof would see what they have with this building and at least bring it up to liveable conditions. Unless your standards are much below substandard, you would do yourself a favor by steering clear of this pit. If you don't care about cleanliness or warmth, at least make sure you are up to date on your vaccines and bring a supply of antibiotics. I would sooner stay in a homeless shelter than subject myself to this atrocity again.
