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.

The Best Value in Downtown Chicago
The staff was both kind and professional. The hotel is in a great, walkable location, surrounded by a plethora of diverse and delicious restaurants. It is close to the Red Line for quick, easy access to the rest of Chicago; the Loop is only one stop away. Combined with the price, I haven't found a better value in downtown Chicago.

A service from the front desk. Very easy access to central chicago and located right in the heart of chinatown. Not the prettiest hotel in town but great value.

For the money it was worth. Simple and it has a bed shower and toilet. And it's at the heart of Chinatown that's all we were asking for parking if you park on the street it's free otherwise it public parking

If you’re looking for a cheap place to sleep this beats any motel 6. It’s not the nicest place but for a 15 minute train ride to downtown Chicago, it beat all other accommodations I could find by over $100, I will definitely stay here every single time I’m in Chicago which is quite a few per year

They didn’t clean the room or bathroom at all. There was a lot of hair and dirt in the bathroom, and there were many items left behind by previous guests in the bedroom.

0 out of 5 stars would not recommend
well... there was no elevator to get to the upper levels, and the stairwells were so narrow that if someone was going the opposite direction as you one of you had to back up to another level to allow one of you to get through at a time. The room was not clean. there was probably an inch of dirt on the baseboards and there were remnants of food under the bed from a previous guest. The mattress pad was stained by lord knows what. I wish I could make this stuff up and I should have taken photos but it was room 208. When I ran the water in the bathroom the ceiling leaked onto the floor. The tv did not work the first night, (they did fix that) there was also no parking available at this hotel you had to park in a lot a ways away or get lucky and find a street parking spot.
