I had a couple of work events in Chicago and I was worried that I would have to come up twice in one week. The price of this place was low enough to justify not having to go home Tuesday night, which meant I got to enjoy and explore more of the city, and that I got to be much more helpful to my co-workers because they had an extra set of hands around as we prepared for 2 big events. If you want to be close and have options for how to navigate Chicago, this is a great place to stay.
