Hotwire for $39 a night. The usual ESA product. Clean and quiet. A little remote if you are wanting to spend a lot of time downtown. About an hour by car and then train, or CTA. But on this trip, I was visitng suburban friends that live southwest, west, and far northwest of the city. For this, the place being... more

I don't know what others are saying, but I really liked it! Like many of them, I too booked it through Hotwire and got an excellent rate (around $40). Initially, I too was a bit hesitant after reading some of the other reviews, but upon my first entrance, all of my fears were dispelled. The room was very large (if... more

The Extended Stay in Elmhurst was pretty much what I expected for the price … it was in the suburbs and shabby all around. But, for the price you pay, you have to keep in mind you are not going to get a 4-star room with all of the amenities you can imagine. So if you’re on a budget, this... more

I also booked thru Hotwire at a VERY low rate. As one reviewer said - you get what you pay for. The hotel was clean, everything worked, refrigerator was nice, restaurants and grocery stores close by. Hotel staff was also nice. We stayed 2 nights here and then moved downtown so it was perfect for visiting friends in Chicago and... more

Booked this hotel with Hotwire. Needed 3 rooms and a convenient place to stay and travel into Chicago for sight-seeing. Hotel met our needs; convenient to have kitchen amenities for b/fast and drinks. There is a supermarket about 1/2 mile from hotel to buy needed supplies. Hotel is clean, although outdated. Fridge in room was extremely loud and toaster didn't... more

Like the second reviewer, I booked here through Hotwire, and had an excellent rate, less than 1/4 of the rates at downtown hotels. Having had less than great experiences at ESAs before, I was somewhat doubtful, but in the event, it was fine. This is a well kept ESA, clean, and with friendly staff. The room was quiet, fresh, and... more

Hotwire placed me in this hotel.....and after reading the previous review, I was more than a bit skeptical. I arrived to find the grounds crew working on the shrubs and flowers, all of which was very attractive. My room was large and most importantly......very, very clean...including the hallways. Everything worked in the room and bath, and it was great having... more

I spent four nights at the ExtendedStay America in Elmhurst, which was four nights too many. Access is difficult, as the driveway is located on a curve on busy Grand Avenue. Entry door is hard to open when carrying luggage. There is no designated loading zone parking space adjacent to the entrance. Once inside, there is a garbage storage room... more
