Rodeway Inn Chicago/Evanston

Julian from the front desk was really helpful and friendly. He was always willing to help, really nice. I was in Chicago to see a concert and hotel was kind of close from the theater. Hotel does not offer breakfast however there is a place around the corner where serves a decent one. Hotel is very clean. There is a vending machine at the front desk where you can buy water and others few beverages from. They let me do early check in and late check out free of charge, which was great.

I needed a place to stay for a night on the north side of Chicago, and the budget was pretty tight. I spend hours looking on airbnb and communicating with different hosts. The responses were mostly, "street parking and make sure you don't wake up my grandmother". Long story short I took a gamble on Rodeway Inn and it paid off. The room was clean, neat and comfortable. The towels were nice and the bed was more than acceptable. The room was small, but had a TV, table with chairs, king size bed, a microwave, fridge and coffee maker. Check in was super easy and the parking was FREE. Wifi is also free (I didn't use it). It's walking distance to Panera and Starbucks. It's about halfway between Lake Shore Drive and the Edens Expressway, so getting anywhere is pretty easy. Lou Malnati's - the best pizza in the history of pizza - is minutes away.

Clean, basic accommodations as we were looking for. We especially appreciated fridge and table for 2.

Everything. It was so clean and cozy. Staff was very friendly. It took about a minute to get booked into our room. 10/10 would stay here again

Easy parking, security cameras, friendly staff, easy access to bus line, within walking distance of food and shopping.
