This is a no-frills motel. It was probably built in the 1950s as a roadside motel and the decor has been maintained. A very clean property, and parking is free and inside the motel courtyard - a wonderful convenience as parking in Chicago can be a nightmare. Starbucks and White Castle are close by, and the nearby Andersonville neighborhood has a lot of nice restaurants and stores. Again, if you are looking for plush towels, Egyptian cotton sheets, and other nice amenities this probably isn't the place for you. But, if you are looking for a cozy, clean room in a safe neighborhood give this a shot.
