This hotel is a great option if you do not want to stay downtown. The Edgewater and Andersonville areas nearby have many great bars and restaurants as well as unique shopping.

Over all not awful, room was clean and well kept. Turned the ac on before we went out so the room would be cool when we got back, instead we walked into what felt like a sauna. Front desk said when it gets cold out it just pushes hot air and gave us a box fan. Which we had to go back and switch out because it didnt work. The staff were kind, and the lot was nice and private. Check in was easy, and it was nice and quiet. Bathroom was cute with vintage pink tiles.

Mr Zone was the most helpful front desk clerk I have had the pleasure of working with. From Paris to London to Tokyo, nobody had set a standard like Mr Zone. He left no question unanswered and turned a long and frustrating day into a calming experience that set the tone for my evening stay in Chicago. This unassuming, historic, and quaint motel should be on anyone’s bucket list in Andersonville.

Great experience
Always great when I take a trip to Chicago and staying at this hotel. They are constantly improving the property, rooms, service etc. and that is reason enough to keep coming back.

It's cheap no frills motel, so don't come in with your expectations high. But it's clean and safe, and you won't find yourself in danger staying here.

This is an older motel. It is very clean and it is great for staying a night or two. This is fairly close to The Riviera Theater and I will stay here again the next concert that I go to in Chicago.

The price is reasonable for a location not by the airport. Traffic was terrible in the area, but that's kinda normal in Chicago.
