My experience was very good, the staff was very helpful. The lobby guy offered to carry my luggage. However it was already a little after check in time and the front desk person was struggling to get me a room. I waited about 30 minutes, she was very nice though. The room was VERY clean, a big requirement for me.... More

This is a good place to stay and be near the Northwestern campus and still have access to the "L" and Metra to downtown Chicago.

There's nothing really noteworthy about this. It's a pretty standard Best Western. It's a little bit old; the hallways really could use a bit of fresh paint or wallpaper. The Rooms are spacious and clean, but honestly too white. Overwhelmingly white for my taste. The walls are off white, the bedding is white. It had a "cold" feeling to it,... More

Repeat guest. Will be back again. It's a good hotel in a good location! Friendly staff! Clean rooms. Free continental breakfast. Walking distance to Downtown Evanston, CTA "L" trains and METRA. Good food and bars nearby.
