convenient locationfaulty air conditionernoisy air conditioner
The location suited my needs well. It was close to both the airport AND the highway.
The air conditioner did NOT respond to temperature adjustments. It was either excessively cold or too hot. the staff said they would contact the manager to resolve it though i checked out before this happened.

i liked how modern and up-to-date everything was (the decor was really nice). the staff members were friendly and helpful, especially with directions. many places were within walking distance, easy to grab a quick bite. the free parking was also a plus.
there was no airport shuttle service, so i needed to rely on ride-sharing apps.

Fantastic Stay Near O'Hare!

easy accessnearby restaurantprofessional staffefficient monitor
It is super close to O'Hare with easy access. This made my travel stress-free. I found several restaurants close by. The staff was professional, and the monitor option in my room was very efficient.
The heater in the room wasn't working at first, requiring a room change. This was a slight inconvenience.
