Staff helpful, room basic - very large bed and TV, air con. Frosted window on ours so couldn't see daylight - was odd. Needs coffee facilities. Broken can machine, told to ring up as it swallowed our money! Really good value for the centre of Chicago, especially with free parking and WiFi. Great value and tasty diner attached for breakfast.... More

I stayed with my family only for one night as I had to wait for my bus connection. However I enjoyed my stay and everything was very clean. Enough towels, good TV channels selection and the most important for me - not far away from Union station. I'd definitely recommend it as a low cost stay option with decent accommodation... More

OK so the hotel isn't a 4, 5 or even 3 star and they don't claim to be. So I figured how much time are we going to spend in a hotel anyway? What we wanted was a clean place to sleep, reasonably priced, close to the things we wanted to do and a place to park my car. That... More

Many of the reviews I read before staying at the"HoJo," as my friends and I dubbed it, left me scared and dreading my brief stay at the hotel while I was in the city for 3 days at the P4k Festival. One person wrote there were bedbugs, one person wrote that the hotel rooms were disgustingly unkempt, and one went... More

Small restaurant in hotel serves a full breakfast. Decent, well air-conditioned rooms. Close to all downtown attractions and to 'L'. More

My husband and I booked a room at the Howard Johnson for a four-night summer weekend visit to Chicago. We were pleased with the experience--the friendly staff, convenient location and basic-but-adequate accommodations met our needs. There are certainly plenty of luxury full-service hotels in Chicago. HoJo is where you stay if you want a good place to sleep. This motel... More

The room was good sized, a little old but not smelly or anything. Considering how much your paying its all that you could expect. I felt safe in the area and they had some cool bars around (just follow the music). There is an affordable diner located next to the hotel, The food was delicious and the portions were large....

Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights in July. The staff was very friendly, making our stay hassle free. Had a king size room which was smaller than an average hotel room but still left us with plenty of room. Room & sheets were clean. Actually this hotel was cleaner then a lot of other hotels i have stayed at.... More

We were quite worried prior to going to this hotel given some of the negative reviews of this place on Trip Advisor. But it was really good value. We couldn't change our minds anyway as we had booked through Hotwire but luckily we didn't want to. This Hotel costs about half as much as those barely 5- 10 minutes walk... More
