Great Stay
I read several negative reviews on the property. We found it quite adequate and really good in a few areas. Yes, some of the floors are not level. Yes, some of the furniture is older and has character. Yes, the elevators, hallways, room, and especially the bathroom are small. In New York City all these things add up to 'Vintage Charm'. The place was clean, staff for the most part very helpful. Location was really good. Close to many nice eating places AND walking distance to Soldier Field. 2 blocks from the 'L'. BUT! They had 2 coffee urns in the lobby and for 4 days we were there, THERE WASN'T A DROP OF COFFEE IN THEM. C'mon management, that's an easy one.

Good Location Hotel Not So
The hotel is in a good location right across from Grant Park within walking distance to the museums there and Soldier Field. There are some excellent restaurants nearby and a Trader Joe's. But, the hotel allows panhandlers to hang right out front, near the front door. The Hilton Garden and Homewood Suites next door do not have this issue. The check-in experience was good, but that is where the service stopped. Our room had a broken bathroom door (the panel was coming off the door and would catch on the door jam if the door was fully closed.) I let the Front Desk know and they didn't even apologize. The bathroom vanity was dinged up. There are no amenities such as breakfast, small convenience store, etc or even water bottles in the room. They do have valet parking which is convenient, but the system is inefficient. The front desk personnel also staff valet. It took nearly 40 minutes to retrieve our car from the valet. The front desk person had to operate the front desk, retrieve luggage from the luggage storage area and get the valet cars. I was told valet was the last priority. For $52 a night, I would expect better service. If given a choice, I would stay next door at one of the Hilton properties. Sadly, those were booked so I decided to give this one a try.

Inigualable ubicación. El staff siempre fue muy amable con nosotros. Tienen el Yolk y el Paris Baguette ahí abajo y son super buenas opciones para desayunar. A 2 cuadras tienes la parada del bus y a 3 cuadras la estación del metro. Limpieza de la habitación excelente. Cuenta con mini refri, caja fuerte, secadora de cabello, y café gratis.

Outdated
AC didn’t work very well, walls were paper thin so could hear our neighbors every move. Toilet leaking and room was outdated.

Noisy w/ work being done all day. Uneven cleaning (my room was skipped 2/5 nights). The bed & pillows are comfortable though. I'd hesitate to stay here again.

I loved everything about this place, unfortunately my stay was slightly ruined by my neighbors having crying children and yelling during the daytime as well as some banging most likely due to construction in the property. Other than those two things the plave was great and the view from my room was amazing

After airline issue of missing a flight I called hotel directly to inform them that we would be arriving the next day. Was informed that our room would be available when we arrived in the morning. Upon arrival I was told that they had no rooms available and that we would need to wait until check in time. Room that we were assigned to was in poor condition and even though I alerted the front desk nothing was corrected. The bathroom door panel was half falling off. I was very disappointed with the condition of the room and the room not being available upon arrival. This was not a positive experience with dealing with Best Western Brand.

This hotel is perfect for a stay in Chicago. The staff is wonderful, but above all the price/quality ratio is hard to beat. Location is perfect, close to all Chicago’s main attractions. The only problem for us was the air conditioning that has an old system and shooshes hot air and then cold air all the time. The hotel indeed needs renovation, but at such a price in downtown Chicago this hotel is the best choice you can have if you are not with an atttitude.

I was in a terrible bedroom witch was close to the poor elevators that makes lot of noise all night and the windows doesn’t have a noise block witch was terrible with all the noise in that busy avenue
