Stayed a total of 3 nights, solo traveller. I felt very safe there - need your key card to even enter the lobby and then again the elevators. Everything was neat and clean. Rooms and facilities were spacious. Lockers could easily hold luggage and there was more space beneath the bed. It is located right by the train so you do hear it when it passes by. This never bothered me but I know it would others. Would definitely book again when coming back to Chicago.

Very easy to check in, never even met anyone from the property. It's all done with codes and the instructions were very clear.
I think the only thing I didn't like is that I was charged extra on the day of the check in and I wasn't aware I'll need to also pay for a "cleaning fee" and some tax that I had to send over PayPal.
