Extra clean hotel in Chicago O'Hare

Very clean and updated. Unfortunately we had a fire alarm go off during our stay and we had to get out of the room for a while. Other than that, everything was very nice.

I love staying there. I always check in after 9:00pm, and the two young ladies who check me in, are lovely. I feel like I am talking to my daughters. They are so sweet.

The room was nice and clean but the walls are thin. My neighbors were up late drinking and being loud. I could hear everything and smell the aftermath in the hall. Breakfast was mediocre, the serve chopped eggs, bacon BITS, and potatoes each morning. Coffee was always available. They have a pool and workout room as well. Parking is free and the location is conveniently close to Rosemont fun.
