My 2 children and I arrived late afternoon, we were greeting by a very friendly staff member, I apparently cannot use her name here so I will call her "A". Check-in was quick & we went straight to the room. We had a view of the lake. The room was clean, beds were comfortable, please keep in mind this is not a 5 star hotel. It was very nice considering its price & the location could not have been more perfect and it was very quiet. It is conveniently located a mile or so from Museum of Science & Industry, you could walk on a warm day, and it was only a short bus ride downtown. There was free shuttle available and bus stop was just a short walk down the street. "A" gave us tips on where to eat, & directions how to get to attractions and was very friendly & professional. All in all a very nice experience here. The only bad thing I could say was the TV should be replaced. It was not working properly, the sound was not great. Breakfast is not included. We did eat there on our last day. The portions were generous & the food was delicious, a little expensive, but I guess not for being in the city.

Ramada Inn located in Hyde Park

This hotel is located in Hyde Park. If you do not have a car this location is not for you. There is a regular city bus line within walking distance...a few blocks away from the hotel, but during the evening this location is desolate. Taxis wait outside of this hotel, and there is a shuttle, but be prepared to pay for this convenience. The shuttle costs $60/trip to O'Hare. The staff is courteous, but the House Keeping Staff is eager to clean your room bright and early. If you are on vacation and like to sleep in this is not the hotel for you. A "Do Not Disturb" sign did not prevent the noise level from the housekeeping staff from penetrating the walls of my room. The front desk staff was cordial, but I had to ask for the parcel that was delivered prior to my arrival...the clerk did not intially tell me that it had arrived. If you get a room near to the pool and restaurant...there is the occasional band in the restaurant that can be quite entertaining. if your room faces the nearby highrise and the street, you can hear the cars on the nearby highway, sirens, and motorcycles zooming by. I returned home more exhausted than when I arrived.

Never again: poor service for the cost

We had a very difficult time finding a parking place anytime we left b/c of the facility's booking of wedding receptions and it's night club which was heavily patronized by non guests. After booking for 2 nights upon arrival, we were locked out of our room on the afternoon of the second day b/c the cleaning staff thought we left a day early b/c we had not left any of our valuables in the room. We had to trek up and down the stairs and quite a distance to the office (with our luggage) to get a new key to get back in. The desk person was on her cell phone when we arrived at the office and, instead of getting off and doing her job, she instead, turned her back on us and continued her personal conversation, eventually disappearing into the back. When sh did finally acknowledge us, she said we should always leave our belongings in the room when we go out or the staff will think we checked out (even though we paid for 2 nights) and then change the key combination. When we got back into the room, half a day after leaving in the AM, we discovered that the room had not been cleaned--no clean towels, beds not made, etc. We called the desk and they said they would get a maid up immediately. We left for a few hours and when we returned, the room was still not cleaned. We called the manager, but she was unavailable. We were told she would call us ASAP. Guess what. She never called. Never did get the room cleaned. When we checked out we took the matters up with the desk clerk who was absolutely unsympathetic with the situation and could not find the manager.
