  1. Posting MUCH later - almost a year. However, this is what we decided to do. We ended up staying at the Hyatt by O'Hare for one night and then the second night we discovered that the Natural History museum was doing a family overnight - so it was a double bonus of being able to squeeze in another museum visit and take care of our overnight accommodations. (plus parking was included too =)

  2. for a stay on 4/29/11 a bid of $65 via priceline got me a room at the Extended Stay in Braintree.

    for a stay on 11/5/10 a bid of $50 via priceline got me a room at Holiday Inn Express Braintree.

    I would definitely be happy staying at the Holiday Inn Express again. I wasn't as impressed with the Extended Stay (I think it was okay, I just didn't realize that it is really bare bones - no shampoo. blowdryer, free wifi, etc. in the rooms)

    Good luck!!!

  3. Thanks for the help, I couldn't figure out on my own how to find the amenities after I booked.

    They were:

    Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s)

    Business Center Laundry Facilities High-speed Internet Access

    got in late - around 10:30pm and left late around 11:30am.

    room furnishing were dated

    we were on the 7th floor by the elevator and it was a bit loud (from both the elevator and the highway traffic), but we fell asleep quickly so not a big deal.

    HOWEVER, shower in the morning was VERY cold. Called downstairs and they told me to let it run awhile, but we already had. Was transferred to manager and he asked if we were staying another night, I told him no, and he said that he would adjust our bill. I didn't mention that we booked via hotwire. Not sure if he took off our $10 parking or not (have been on the road and haven't checked credit card statement yet). However, I wasn't looking for $ back. Just wanted it taken care of for the next guest.

    ALSO, left a personal pillow in the room and I followed up with a phone call to Lost & Found - had to leave a voicemail - they haven't called me back. DISAPPOINTING. (I will call again, but disappointed that I haven't had a return phone call).

  4. Hi - I'm traveling with my 9yo son to Chicago to visit a couple of museums. Looking for hotel for Thursday night 8/5 (maybe Wednesday too).

    ($100 - $125 budget range is what we are looking at now)

    We are planning to go to the Museum of Science and Industry on Thursday and then to the Planetarium on Friday day and then we are staying overnight on Friday at the Field Natural History Museum.

    Not too familiar with Chicago. Should we pay the premium and stay downtown or stay in a suburb (if suburb, hint of good suburb would be great).

    Since we would probably drive to Science & Industry and we will be driving to Field Museum - not sure if we want to pay for parking at the hotel and then at the site too.

    Any suggestions you have would be great.

    Thank you,

    Julie
