Good value but serious caveats
This hotel is a good value for being somewhat close to downtown. Excellent location if you're going to IIT MCormick Place or Hyde Park. Good things: free parking; large room (handicapped accessible so that may be an anomaly); good bathroom light. Bad things: do not walk to anything at night (and I grew up on Chicago's southside so I'm no scardy cat); expensive wi-fi that didn't work; terrible bed & pillows that smelled used; HVAC system that smelled like it was on fire when the heat was on. So, just balance off price w/location & amenities.
