Very good location and nice and clean. It appears this classic old motel has had a nice make over. Staff is accommodating. (FYI though. If you hear about a record release party for a hip hop artist nearby, take a pass.)

Noisy? Uhh, sure. But also cool and kitschy

Booked the Ohio House because it was an affordable place right in the middle of River North. The reviews I read seemed favorable and the pictures made it look cool and kitschy. Ultimately, it was all of those things. Of course, it’s still an older motel in River North which means noise. Noise from the street, noise from the alley, noise from the other rooms. You get an idea that it’ll be noisy when you find earplugs in the room. Overall, though, the room was clean and had been recently remodeled, the bed was comfortable and, location-wise, it was perfect for the few days we were in Chicago. I would stay at the Ohio House again in the future, and if you can tolerate some noise: you should too.

Mallory was great at check in. We did not know that we could call to turn up a/c...but just dial 0 and ask. Onky downside was traffic noise but they do provide earplugs! Very comfortable stay.

Not sure about the other reviews

I ended up having to leave because it was just too disgusting, loud, odorous, unclean, freezing, unbelievable. Saw a rat right by the front door. They tried to accommodate with a different room and it was just too much so I left and got a new hotel but they still charge me one night But did refund the other remaining nights. I was to stay there.

Our stay here was amazing. The area was great, the staff were super kind and accommodating. There’s a Target next door which was nice for my friends and I as there were a few times we needed to stop in and grab things. The motel felt secure and it was clean. We had no complaints at all with our stay. It was so relieving to see how accurate the glowing reviews were!
