No thank you.

The hotel had an unpleasant odor. The carpets were filthy. There were bags of garbage in the hallway. The pullout bed had unidentified pills laying in it. No sheets for it either. Staff was kind, but completely disengaged. Just an all around gross experience.

Elevator was out of order. We had to carry our luggage, walker, other personal belongings up two flights of stairs. Requested room on first floor due to husband using walker and on oxygen only to find out upon our arrival that hotel doesn't have rooms located on first floor. Request a refund were told to contact Expedia for refund.

Not so clean

I’d spend a little more money to Mariot or Hilton next time. First time choose 2-star hotel inChicago area. Kinda disappointed by its amenity and not so clean room.
