Great location near CTA Red Line station. Fun neighborhood. Could use some sprucing up, lots of peeling paint. Great deal for being so close to downtown and McCormick Place. No amenities, but there are properties going for 3-4 times the daily rate if that's important for your stay.

Bedbugs. My friend woke up with many bites. I’d actually like to request a refund. This is inexcusable. I have photos if you need them.

You get what you pay for, if you just want a place to shower and sleep at night this is it. This is obviously not a 5star hotel but it’s in the center of China town which makes it a prime location. Bring your own soap/body wash/ shampoo our room did not have any. Besides that it was okay. 3/5

It’s one of those hotels where you can’t be mad at the quality because of the price. It’s in a good location for a good price, so I can’t complain too much. Cleanliness would probably be my biggest complaint as every aspect of the hotel room was dirty or old. The sheets were extremely dirty and old, and the door was busted up in quite a few different ways.

Easy access to downtown and Chinatown. The hotel was lovely and if you grew up in these kind of communities you’ll be a ok. However don’t go in expecting a standard hotel experience! There were certainly stains on the wall and perhaps mold in the showers. But the bed was soft and the location great and the front desk staff lovely.

Fine for the price.
This is a place totally in flux. For what I paid. Amazing location. It was a fine room. But super budget. My room was cleanish but the sheets were tattered, the bathroom was rough, but this is definitely a property where they are making an effort. Excited to see the future for them.

Oh my goodness what a dump!! The air conditioner didn't work right, water barely worked in the shower,
No elevator and our room was on the third floor. Our view from our window was a dirty alleyway with garbage all over. We only went there to sleep since we were at a concert, but the bed was so horrible we never slept ! What a nightmare!
