Save yourself the trouble and just pay the extra money for a better hotel, this place is so incredibly shabby and run down. Looks like it was last cleaned in 1947.

Great location near CTA Red Line station. Fun neighborhood. Could use some sprucing up, lots of peeling paint. Great deal for being so close to downtown and McCormick Place. No amenities, but there are properties going for 3-4 times the daily rate if that's important for your stay.

It’s one of those hotels where you can’t be mad at the quality because of the price. It’s in a good location for a good price, so I can’t complain too much. Cleanliness would probably be my biggest complaint as every aspect of the hotel room was dirty or old. The sheets were extremely dirty and old, and the door was busted up in quite a few different ways.

We stayed at this hotel -- and I use that term so very loosely -- because other hotels that we usually stay at were going for $750 a night or more. "How bad could it be?" we asked. Reader, be prepared to reevaluate all of your life choices if you decide to book a room here. First, it's a four-floor walk-up, with uneven, narrow stairways. Our room had a rickety bed with a small blanket that didn't remotely cover my 6-foot husband. There was a chair, table and tiny TV crowded up against it. Stains all over the walls and the drape that covered our one, cracked window overlooking a depressing alley. We checked for bedbugs and surprisingly found none. In the bathroom, there was a tiny round toilet, a shower that only spat out water unwillingly, and a single used bandaid on the floor. Enjoy using your hand towel as a washcloth, because that's as close as you get. Want coffee? There's some Folgers' crystals and a hot-water option on the fountain in the "kitchen" area, which at times even has water available. There are abundant signs warning you not to steal food out of the single refrigerator. And still more signs telling you that you are being surveilled. Don't worry about the housekeeping staff damaging any of your belongings -- our room wasn't touched during our three-night stay. China town itself is amazing. You will be tempted to ignore your gut and stay at this hotel, which passed "shabby" about 20 years ago. Reconsider. We cheaped out, and we paid the price.

Oh my goodness what a dump!! The air conditioner didn't work right, water barely worked in the shower, No elevator and our room was on the third floor. Our view from our window was a dirty alleyway with garbage all over. We only went there to sleep since we were at a concert, but the bed was so horrible we never slept ! What a nightmare!

For the price all I expect is a semi-clean room and a hot shower. The hot water went out, and would not be back on until the Monday after we left "at the earliest." The front desk staff could only offer us "$20 per night we were effected" which didn't include the day we checked out. No one notified us the hot water was out and would remain out. We waited several hours for the hot water to come back on before we complained and asked what was going on. The manager was not on the premises. There was no offer of passes to a local gym or to be moved to another hotel. Lack of access to hot water is unhygienic and unsafe. We had to cut our trip short and drive home just to feel clean. If I didn't want a shower, I would have gone camping.

Room was at an affordable rate. Downtown Chinatown area was very close by so you could walk from the hotel to shop end eat at a variety of establishments. With there being no elevator, getting a 3rd floor room was a bit tiresome going back and forth especially with how tight the stairway was. Walls were very thin so I pretty much heard my neighbors on the opposite end of the hall of the same floor and nearly all the commotion outside. There was only 1 worker at the front desk at all times and they weren't too helpful when it came to knowing parking accommodations. I'd recommend this property if you're in town for the weekend and didn't bring your own vehicle as parking is either at a nearby parking garage, a communal parking lot, or utilizing a 3rd party app to park your car overnight. All the rooms share a kitchen and fridge so that can be a big turnoff for people who intend to bring in leftovers or preparing food while staying.

Easy access to downtown and Chinatown. The hotel was lovely and if you grew up in these kind of communities you’ll be a ok. However don’t go in expecting a standard hotel experience! There were certainly stains on the wall and perhaps mold in the showers. But the bed was soft and the location great and the front desk staff lovely.

This is a place totally in flux. For what I paid. Amazing location. It was a fine room. But super budget. My room was cleanish but the sheets were tattered, the bathroom was rough, but this is definitely a property where they are making an effort. Excited to see the future for them.

0 out of 5 stars would not recommend

well... there was no elevator to get to the upper levels, and the stairwells were so narrow that if someone was going the opposite direction as you one of you had to back up to another level to allow one of you to get through at a time. The room was not clean. there was probably an inch of dirt on the baseboards and there were remnants of food under the bed from a previous guest. The mattress pad was stained by lord knows what. I wish I could make this stuff up and I should have taken photos but it was room 208. When I ran the water in the bathroom the ceiling leaked onto the floor. The tv did not work the first night, (they did fix that) there was also no parking available at this hotel you had to park in a lot a ways away or get lucky and find a street parking spot.
