Right room for the right stay
The hotel was located in a very quiet, secured newer area with plenty of parking. The room we booked had two rooms with bathrooms attached with a joining living room and kitchenette with a dining set. All was very clean and kept. A Costco was located about 3 minutes away, which we were able to buy certain items for meals and store perishables in a full size refrigerator. We also enjoyed our time at the indoor pool and billiard table area. Special thanks to Marc for attending to our needs at the front desk. Great stay!

Everything per standard for a residence inn. We stayed for 3 nights and it was as expected. The location is far from downtown Chicago and hence not a recommended spot if you plan to visit downtown. Traffic to downtown is horrible everyday.
Bfast was a repeat for 3 days and no bread was provided only option was to eat bagels or English muffins.

Good experience
Hotel was nice, and friendly, but the toilets a low water pressure, and the beds were a little on the firmer side. Overall good!
