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.

This is my third or fourth stay. Yes it is dated. It is clean! I've never seen signs of bugs. Location is awesome along with the quite reasonable rates. Everything is within reach. Enjoy dim sum at a local restaurant!

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

The smell in our room was SO bad, it hit you in the face every time upon entering, and you're nose can’t ever really get used to it. There’s no elevator so not accessible for people with disabilities. Regarding the safety of the area, there was a shooting right across the street one of the nights, so there’s that. The area was also noisy with drunken people yelling up and down the street until 3am. It was really hard to rest after long days of exploring the city. Our health kept deteriorating after every night with the smell and noises. Location was great and in the perfect spot for us, we took the water taxi straight into downtown so that was really convenient. Considering all the cons vs. 1 pro, I wouldn’t say it was worth it, despite the lower price, as the cons cost us our ability to enjoy the trip without feeling exhausted.

It was Okay. Check-in is at 3 p.m., not even one minute before that, so take that into consideration if you are planning to arrive 30 minutes early or something like that. You need to ask for room services if needed. The location is very good. The Red Line is very close to the hotel, and Chinatown has a nice ambiance.

The hotel is great for the price. The first room we had was terrible as there was trash everywhere and the toilet was clogged. However, we went down to the front desk and explained to them what we had walked into and they immediately apologized and gave us a new room. The new room was comfortable and cozy. It worked for what we needed. So if you are looking for a cheap option this is great! Super convenient location as well!

Property needs an entire upgrade. The entire hotel is in ruins. It’s definitely not in any condition to be running a business or charging people period to stay there. The entire establishment was like an abandoned building, with mildew, dirty, and grimy.

You get what you pay for...a cheap room to sleep. Sheets and towels were clean but windows (in our 2nd floor room) didn't appear to lock with a walkway outside.

We were wanting to check out the Whitesox Stadium. Plus, we were coming up for The Stones concert at Soldiers Field the next day. Already had a Hotel for that trip. We were looking for a cheaper place for our first night. Accomplished that times 3. The Chinatown hotel has no parking. We parked at a public lot, just a few minutes away. It was fine, and probably cheaper than most Hotel parking charges. We were able to check in early. We even got on the first floor. There are 3 floors, and no elevator. Our room was without any amenities, or wash cloths. The place was very clean. Workers were very friendly. AC worked well. Many restaurants really close.

Awesome location and price. This is right near the red line train station, which will take you to downtown. Not only that, but you’re right in the heart of Chinatown. It was pretty amazing being able to shop at the nearby stores, pick up some bread from the bakery across the street, or visit a restaurant nearby and for it to be a short walk overall! As others have mentioned, the place isn’t the most clean or well kept. I found some light trash under the bed, but I’m not sure that’s fair to count against them. I noticed the blanket had some holes and the desks looked to have cogarette burns. If you’re looking for something fancy, this isn’t it. But if you just want a place to spend the night, I’d highly recommend this place (especially cost-wise).

This place is a bed, nothing more, pack air freshener and pack light because this place has no elevator, the head post are barely on the carpet is ok, the walls have cracks, bathroom is tiny, and they try to pad their star rating by offering you a can of soda if you blindly give them a 10 start review I stayed there and the bedpost fell off the wall which looks like it was stuck up there with plaster and a prayer, they do not answer room service especially when I asked for toliet paper, the neighborhood is scenic though plenty of restaurants and shopping but for Japanese stuff ( in Chinatown) all bootleg and cheap

the bed had no bedbugs and was somewhat comfortable, but the area looks very ghetto and unsafe and i constantly heard screaming and running around the hallways. walls are also very thin and the window view was a dirty alleyway. also located near red line which is convenient but somewhat unsafe. and its in chinatown so it’s convenient to get breakfast in the morning. the bathroom condition was horrible and the toiletpaper holders were broken and run down. There was only one outlet in the entire room. and no elevator despite there being 3 floors

If you are looking for a nice hotel, this isn’t it. If you are looking for a bed and a bathroom and you don’t mind not have a door knob on the bathroom or the door closing all the way, this is the place for you. For $90 a night in Chicago you are getting what you pay for.

Terrible hotel. I'm honestly not sure how they are still in business. Door knob to my first room was broken. Heater in my second room wasn't working. Plumbing in shower was laggy so it made a pool. A stranger's hair was found under the sheets and in the restroom. Those are all objective observations. My opinion is that they are on their last leg and is trying to milk the old cow until it all breaks down and close. DO NOT RESERVE MORE THAN 2 NIGHTS IN ADVANCE. You will regret it as the cancelation policy is very strict and they will keep most of it. I only stayed here because of nostalgia but after coming back to Chicago's chinatow, I see they have 2 hotels that are closeby with 1 being a big brand hotel name.

The room was ok, it's small, it had remote ac, a small t.v bed, and desk with a small sitting bench.I had to request that the linen be changed b/c the pillowcase had stain on it, so did the pillows. I think they line dry certain things. However, after I spoke to the woman at the reception desk, she had all the linens changed and it was fine. The bathroom was clean, with small towels and soap, shampoo, no shower pressure, but water was hot. They will hold your bags after check out. There's a frig, microwave, soda machine downstairs. It's a 10 minute walk to McCormick Convention Center. It's good if you'll just be sleeping there. The bed isn't soft, but will do if you're on a low budget.
