Nice and safe place to stay

The place is in a neighborhood with 2 restaurants connected to it. It is really close to the train station and heart of the city which is walkable. Lots of restaurants and stores to go to as well. The hotel has a lot of charm and historic significance. The elevator is quite small and can probably fit 2 people with a luggage or two only, but it's doable. The room itself was quaint. The bathroom was small and tight with its 2 sink, closet (which you can only open if you close the bathroom door first), toilet and bathtub. The towels were thin (like a motel would have). The black and white tile floor in the bathroom brightened the place. The air conditioner was a bit loud and the view we had was the alley and the motel side of the hotel. There is a small room with a microwave, small fridge, sink and coffee maker. There is no utensils, paper towels or anything to use, so bring your own. We did enjoy staying here because of the location (nice and safe area), history and comfortable room.

This hotel was so quaint and historic. Parking was tough, but we didn’t get in until after midnight, so go figure. Very clean, friendly staff. I’d definitely stay here again.

Perfect for visit to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Oak Park

Very convenient for visiting Frank Lloyd Wright sites in Oak Park. Train station less than a block away. Located in the Pleasant historic neighborhood in a classic building, we enjoyed the classic lobby vibe. Room was basic but clean with a nice kitchenette. We loved the plentiful free parking and the on-site bistro with outdoor seating

Better then expected

Other then not having a pool. This place is not bad at all. It's an older hotel and with that it has wear, but is managed well. Its not close to downtown but close enough. The hotel is in the Oak Park area where you can walk around day or night to shop and eat safely.
