The Gem Museum Suites

Downtown Evanston

10/10 Excellent

Very clean room. Spacious with the perk of a kitchenette and in-room washer/dryer combination. More like a small apartment vs a hotel room. Nice hot breakfast each day until 11:00am… really appreciate the later end time. Great location in downtown Evanston… super close to CTA station, coffee shop, bakery etc. Easy commute to the city. Convenient on-site parking. A stellar deal for a great spot!! Would stay here again 110%!!

There are, however, a few small improvements that could make the guest experience even better. The breakfast hours were...
