I found this hotel while I was looking for any affordable hotel in Chicago area. After staying here in two separate trips, this has become my family first hotel of choice whenever we go through Chicago. First of all, this place is ver affordable compared to other area hotels - often you'll find it for $60 gov't rate. For that you get a roomy 1 queen bed suite with kitchenette. There is an indoor pool (no hot tub) with spacious exercise room next door. There is also a laundry room attached, so you could work out or swim while you do your laundry.
Breakfast is very decent with a waffle machine, different hot food each day, and to-go items such as granola bars & yogurt. If you let them know, they even prepare brown bag breakfast to go for free. Lobby is large with a business center on the side. However, space ran out a few times due to a large group staying there.
The area around the hotel is getting developed, so it's not too crowded yet. Costco & Home Depot is a few blocks away, and a mall with Target is very close by as well.
