cnbwang Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 Hi, This is my first time here and I would like to book a room (1 room/3 adults) close to university of chicago. I drive my own car. Hotels in hyde park area are expensive so I try to find a hotel close to campus. I find two possibilities here. 2 star Midway Airport MDW - Oak Lawn - Alsip area hotel $63Amenities Fitness center Free Internet Free breakfast Free parking Pet friendly Self-service laundry 3.5 star Midway Airport MDW - Oak Lawn - Alsip area hotel $82Amenities Airport shuttle Business center Fitness center Free Internet Free parking Indoor pool(s) Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Self-service laundry Could you please help identify what hotels could be? It seems there are lots of good deals in the weekend which makes Monday stay more expensive. And also any other hotel suggestions in other areas? Thanks in advance.
AaronJB Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)The 2* has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but the 45% approval rating from Hot.wire customers is concerning. The 3.5* would be a possible match for the Hilton Oak Lawn. I'm very familiar with the area - I do see what appears to be the Hyatt McCormick Place for $123 and the South Loop Hotel for $125 (you may see slightly different prices.) Those would put you closer, but for $40 or so over the 3.5* MDW. I also see what is likely the Blackstone Renaissance for $111. However, with the Hyatt and Blackstone you're also looking at costly parking on top of the hotel cost. Would any of these be of interest? Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.
cnbwang Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Posted June 25, 2015 Thank you very much. I just booked. Your guess is right. It's the Hilton Oak Lawn. I know it's not a hot deal but it's the best i can find close to UC.
AaronJB Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 Congrats on your success. :)Quite a nice win for this property and with parking costs downtown, I think this is a good call. Hope it will work well for your travel plans. Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches. Enjoy your stay.
thereuare Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 Thank you for sharing your results with the board. I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post, which would not have been seen unless you clicked the 'See all' link during the check-out process. Can you please add a reply to this thread confirming the full list of amenities associated with this property (including any accessible amenities)... you can still view this information by going to HOTWIRE and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page. Thanks! Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
