TV is small and breakfast is a "cereal bar," but other than that: you are getting what you pay for, and the online pics and descriptions are accurate. Will stay again. It's a great neighborhood, and you cannot beat the price. ##### Lisa Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tracie Oct 9, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities Not a lot of options at all in this area if attending a concert at The Riviera. Booked this after reviewing mixed ratings. Old motor lodge, dated decor and bedding. Room was clean but this is bare bones for amenities. Desk staff nice. Continental breakfast was the bare minimum; the coffee fresh and adequate quality. ##### Tracie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Saul Sep 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Love it ##### Saul Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### BRYAN Sep 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Loud outside at night ##### BRYAN Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### David Alan Sep 29, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service The breakfast was almost nonexistent. On the first morning, the only option was cereal in styrofoam bowls. No coffee. No tea. No bread. No juice. On the next two mornings, coffee was available. ##### David Alan Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly May 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay that is friendly and clean!! ##### Kimberly Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori Sep 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The motel overall was ok . It could use a bathroom redo very old and room could use new carpet and updated. The TV wouldn't come on. But overall it was good.

Convenient to several popular gay bars. Inexpensive for adults, but probably not recommended for families. ##### Daniel T Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Emma Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Overall an average stay. Comfy enough, ended up being put in a different room than we booked since they didn’t have any nonsmoking double beds rooms left. Breakfast was basically nonexistent which wasn’t a big deal. Just know there’s only cereal and oatmeal lol Bed was fine, tv worked and bathroom got the job done. The free parking was very nice! Kind of just a sketchy vibe since it’s a motel but safe enough! Got what we paid for and we’re happy about that :) ##### Emma Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rose Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Walking into my room was like walking into a typical movie set. The room as spacious, smelled nice and as clean and organized. It's location leads itself to a loud outside and the blackout curtains did help with the morning light. ##### Rose Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Anthony May 21, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Place ##### Anthony Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Jun 25, 2025 Had super clean windows and guy at front desk seemed cool.

The only issue was check out - at 11, but my room card stopped working at 930. But I was allowed back in easy enough. Thank you!! ##### Gwenllian Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle Jun 6, 2024 Liked: Amenities Great place to stay ##### Michelle Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ryan Jul 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is the fourth time I have stayed at the Heart O' Chicago. The rooms have some wear and tear but, they are always clean and we haven't had any issues. Love that I can walk anywhere. Plus, if you are attending an event that is train accessible - you can walk the two blocks to the brand new train station and leave the car behind (and save 60 dollars in parking downtown). One downside - the breakfast is a joke. Cereal and apples - that was it. Sad. There are many good places to eat in the area and rather than paying the 3 dollar charge for vending machine water - I walked into the neighborhoods and picked up some items at a local store. ##### Ryan Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### gian Apr 12, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I’d rather not comment on this motel the only positive I can comment is the front desk staffs are nice that’s all. ##### gian Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### John May 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The best thing is free parking.
