biddingforhotel Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 We were just arrived in time to catch a newly renovated room, everything is new and nice, but outside is half renovated. So, when you walk in from the front desk, it looks very shine and new like a 3* hotel, then to the middle, it became like 2.5* and when you walk thru the door to the rear, it is like a 2* motel. So, I guess it average to 2.5* (?) So, walk in from front door, and hang on at the nice pool area, ...etc.If you drive to rear and go to your room directly, you will feel like a renovated 2* motel. They bought this hotel and tried to make it a very nice and shine hotel. Hopefully, next time there it will all be done.One good thing is that parking is free and about 13 miles from the loop. Around the hotel, lots of fast food, stores ...etc. very convenient. It is close to North Shore, and if you park the car at FREE Lincoln Park Zoo area ($10 a day), you can visit Nature Museum, Zoo, Surgical Science Museum, and may be rent a bike $8 per hour (min 2 hour) and bike all the way to Navy Pier, very nice view. and stop at nice Drake Hotel to listen to Harp Play and may be grab a nice sweat apple...
