Very good location and nice and clean. It appears this classic old motel has had a nice make over. Staff is accommodating. (FYI though. If you hear about a record release party for a hip hop artist nearby, take a pass.)

The room was clean and smelled fresh, which I really appreciated. I also liked that they provided makeup wipes—a thoughtful touch. The only suggestion I have is to consider adding more insulation for better soundproofing. You can hear other guests leaving their rooms quite loudly, and street noise like speeding cars or honking is noticeable too. That might just be me, though, as I’m a very light sleeper. Parking was a big plus—they have on-site parking with in-and-out privileges at no extra cost. We paid $49.92 for it and were even allowed to park earlier than the 4:00 PM check-in time without being charged extra. Customer service was great as well. Everyone we interacted with, both over the phone and at the front desk, was friendly and accommodating. Overall, we were very pleased with the value we got for the price we paid. We would definitely book here again in the future!

The room was clean, comfortable and the bed was very comfortable. Onsite parking was very convenient though pricey ($49 for a night). I loved that I was able to walk to the Riverwalk, Navy Pier and the shops. Staff was helpful and friendly. The only negative was that it was noisy - our neighbors were very loud at 2:00a and woke us up. Then someone started to smoke weed and the smell wafted into our room - it gave me a headache. Finally fell asleep at 4:00a.

Noisy? Uhh, sure. But also cool and kitschy

Booked the Ohio House because it was an affordable place right in the middle of River North. The reviews I read seemed favorable and the pictures made it look cool and kitschy. Ultimately, it was all of those things. Of course, it’s still an older motel in River North which means noise. Noise from the street, noise from the alley, noise from the other rooms. You get an idea that it’ll be noisy when you find earplugs in the room. Overall, though, the room was clean and had been recently remodeled, the bed was comfortable and, location-wise, it was perfect for the few days we were in Chicago. I would stay at the Ohio House again in the future, and if you can tolerate some noise: you should too.
