Wish breakfast was available again

Great atmosphere and location

I do like older hotels but struggled with our luggage up the stairs and then found out as we left that there is a lift to the floor elevator. No one to help. I’m really surprised there was no coffee in the lobby for guests. Rather unwelcoming. I know there’s a little pot in the room. But just one cup each. Bath tub is VERY slippery. The weather was great so it wasn’t a problem getting from the parking lot to the front entrance but on a cold, rainy day with suitcases it would be very uncomfortable. I think for the price they could add a few amenities.

Very good!!

Limited facilities especially in room as no kettle for tea and coffee no china mugs and all a bit tired.

This hotel has old world charm and ideally placed for a Frank Loyd Wright tour as it’s within walking distance. Safe neighbourhood lovely restaurants and free car park with hotel. Comfortable beds and an easy stay for a couple of night

Washroom with antiquated fixtures, but in fine condition. No breakfast service.

Historic building in great location.

There were foot bits (Cheerios) on the floor near the nightstand. The kitchenette should be sure to have the proper amount of kitchen essentials (plates, forks, knives, spoons) equal to the number of guests checking in (I had two plates, two forks and one spoon when I arrived). The refrigerator should be on and set to cold prior to guest arrival (mine was not).

What breakfast? The location was very convenient to downtown Oak Park.

Good place to stay. We chose it specifically to be away from Chicago city center, but it is easily accessible by metro and quite safe even at night. Although we had a car, we did not use it and preferred to travel by metro as it is quite cheap and efficient. There are a few restaurants close to the hotel. Parking is available on a first-come first-served basis, but we didn't have any issues in parking there.

One the best choices

Free parking but not directly in front of our unit.

Convenient location. Well maintained. Helpful staff.

The room was a bit dated, resulting in a number of noices which were a bit of a nuisance. The location is not ideal for visiting downtown Chicago as you need an hour in each direction if travelling in the morning or the afternoon. When we returned to our accommodation at night, after dinner, the distance was easily covered in 20-25 minutes.

A very impressive hotel in a nice neighborhood, with lots of stores and restaurants within walking distance. Room was functional and comfortable, with charm and flooded with beautiful light in the afternoon. Staff was polite and accommodating. Parking place was easyto find and very convenient once you had unloaded car in front of hotel. The hotel had a few stairs in the main lobby area to get in an out of the hotel but a small elevator was available to help wheelchairs and carts with luggage.

Being an old property it had stairs at every entrance, but there was a lift alongside one set of stairs so it was manageable.

Excellent location, very comfortable and quiet. Very convenient for cat trains, shops and restaurants.

The room was uncomfortably small and hot. There was a problem with the heating which was addressed and eventually fixed.

The staff was excellent. Friendly and responsive to requests.

Great location, free parking, Poor Phils restaurant. We had a problem with our room the first night and staff were very responsive about righting the issue. The hotel has a lot of history, character and beauty.

Stayed in May 2024

The location was close to trains and in a very pleasant part of town. Downtown Chicago is reachable in 20 or so minutes by CTA or Metro. The hotel restaurants were appealing and one stayed open late. I would definitely stay here again.

We asked for travel cribs in our reservation notes as well as calling ahead the day before arrival. We also asked at the front desk on arrival, but still had to call down as there were no cribs in our room. This was not great with two small kids losing it at bedtime. That said, the front desk staff were nice and apologetic, and we have no complaints about the rest of our stay. The soap holder in the shower also did not appear quite clean. Our room was very dark and quiet overnight -- had a great night of sleep, which is so very appreciated in a big city stay!

Location was great, the room was huge. We found the overall independent, non-corporate/chain feel of the hotel charming, and the bar staff at the connected restaurant was very friendly. We felt welcomed by everyone we interacted with. We will be returning for any stays in Oak Park in the future.

Was overly warm and we couldn’t regulate the radiator. The bed was a bit lumpy. It’s an old building, so expect radiator noises.

Very convenient location to sites we were visiting. Excellent on-site Italian restaurant. Very clean. Charming old-school vibe. Fridge, microwave, coffee pot, and dishes! Included off-street, free parking.

There is no food in the hotel until 11am. I didn't see anything about room service either. No paper towels, soap, or dishes in the kitchenette except one plate and coffee cup. When you check in or out no one offers to help you with your luggage. The mattresses are not comfortable.

This location is within walking distance of a lot of restaurants and shops. My room was clean.

Only real criticism is this…. Lamp between beds could use outlets/USB ports.

Older hotel but Clean comfortable n great location….

If you come back from the club late night, you might get locked out. Luckily my gf stayed in

Nice location. Enjoyed our window view on the top floor overlooking the street corner/sign.

In our room there were not enough hooks or towel bars to bar able to have my clothes and wet towels hung up -- I had to strew them over chairs and other places ==

Staff and facility were fine and well-located for a visit to Oak Park. A great benefit is the free parking provided.

One of the staff didn’t seem too welcoming, but that we were a bothere

Beautiful old hotel, well maintained. No old musty smell. We’ll appointed.

Varied friendliness with front desk staff.

Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and a nice view. There was a microwave, mini fridge, and coffee maker. Toiletries provided were high quality. Room was ready an hour before check in. Area surrounding hotel had plentiful restaurants, coffee shops, and parks. Right off the Green Line. Free parking nearby was a huge plus!

The room was large and comfortable. It was well located for Oak Park

The price was high for not having a breakfast available on site. The decor could use some updating, wallpaper and carpet.

We went for a full breakfast at the Cozy Cafe twice. The food was pretty good and the walk was only 2-3 blocks. The service was very good. We also went to a local french bakery which was excellent but had limited pastries. The hotel was a bit understaffed so there wasn't always someone at the main desk for answering questions. The location was very nice and convenient for visiting Oak Park. The bed was very comfortable and the space in the room was nice with a kitchenette available. Use of the YMCA, two blocks away was great.
