This place is a nice budget place to stay in Chicago. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the train station and like 7-8 stops to downtown Chicago which was nice. The common areas are nice and have added amenities (the kitchen is stocked with a lot of stuff). The area isn't great but seemed fine to me. The bedrooms look old and are creaky but the beds were very comfortable. The TV situation needs some attention because there were 3 remotes and watching anything on the TV is a struggle. I ended up just streamcasting from my laptop which worked out fine. Overall, this place is a good stay for the price if that's what you're looking for.
