Great location-great staff-great value
This is a very clean, friendly, well-located hotel. Latasha was extremely patient and kind through many emails as I wanted know all I possibly could about the hotel and the area. We used the valet parking (at $22 a day with in-out privileges it's a bargain here or any other big city) and we were treated wonderfully, which made for an excellent first impression. Check-in was quick and easy and the desk and bell staff were friendly and professional. Our room was a two-queen business class, with a microwave, refrigerator, big closet. and very clean and inviting. We usually do not have housekeeping done when we stay for an extended period of time, except for fresh towels, but this Days Inn insists on cleaning the room after three days, which we thought was an indication of its dedication to cleanliness. The free continental breakfast was fine, no eggs or meat, just pastries, bagels, juice and coffee, and the breakfast area was pleasant. Most of all, we really appreciated the location and the helpfulness of the staff. We normally stay at Marriott properties and have been unimpressed with other Days Inns, but we recommend the Days Inn Chicago. It is in a lovely building in a great neighborhood with a wonderful staff. We did get what we thought was a good deal by booking in advance.
