Heart O' Chicago - Chicago

The hotel room was extremely clean. The room/bathroom are dated, but well maintained. My complaint is that it is extremely noisy. Other guests were having a 2 am party in the parking lot and were extremely loud. The noise from the busy intersection nearby is loud as well. If you don't have any trouble sleeping and just need the room for sleeping, this […] is the place for you..... Mehr

This was a good place to stay for a few nignts. I cought a bus and went to Wrigley Field.

Very Average Motel. Front desk person was very nice. Older 70s style rooms. Beds were a little uncomforatble but good for the price.

The bathroom was strait from the 60's the rest of the decor from the 70's. The shower 'door' was very bizarre accordion thing that encroached on your room to take a shower. I fit in a size 6 pants and was cramped. I was much temped to shower with the shower door open. But the place was clean and well kept. If you are into retro, you could find it f […] un. Mehr

genrally we stay here when we travel with out children- & for the price it's great.

We only stayed here one night while waiting for a new apt to be ready for move in. The management was super nice; the hotel super clean. They have HBO too. The free breakfast was a little sparce, just donuts, coffee/juice and muffins but it was a great stay for the price. It's about a 20 min drive to downtown depending on traffic. Couldn't have asked […] for a better stay. Mehr

I've stayed here once or twice a year for the past few years. It's always the same. Brusk customer service at check-in, average rooms (clean but boring), minimal service (crappy tvs and station choices - I mean, really, do I need to scroll through a few blank channels between every channel that actually comes it .. and no CNN or cable news? Really? […] In 2012?!!) It'll do in a pinch, but next time I'll look elsewhere, even if it costs more. Mehr

Pretty nice for the price and location. needs towel racks and more towels.

A good place to sleep cheap in Chicago, IF the people in the room next door are not too loud. We could hear ordinary conversations through the walls. One person left his TV on all night, fortunately with the volume low enough that we were able to sleep. Nothing at all luxurious about this place, but the room was clean and there are few other options […] in this part of Chicago. Mehr

this hotel was mostly nice, the staff was pleasant minus the one guy. our room was right on top of clark st and we heard no less then 600 car horns throughout our 3 day stay. heaters are poorly designed and loud and showering was just awful due to the 60s style accordian shower doors which constantly touch you.

A good value for staying on the north side of Chicago.

Went to Chicago for a concert. It was easy to fine, and in what we felt like was a secure location. The price was very reasonable for the quality. The room and bathroom were very clean, which is a big thing for many including myself. The manager on duty was extremely nice and considerate. He even remembered my name when we checked out the next day!

I didn't find any roaches in this motel! Fine place to get ready for a night in Chi and a comfy bed to come back to. Basic amenities, and quiet.

The room was clean and attractive, but only the basics. For the price, it was terrific

If you're hoping to find this hotel conveniently located to downtown sights and sports venues - wrong. But if you're hoping to find this hotel coveniently located to public transportation to get you quickly and efficiently to all (every single one) of the most interesting sights downtown and all sports venues - DING, DING, DING this is the place for […] you. Perhaps the best thing about this hotel is the FREE PARKING - you won't find this anywhere else in the city. Superbly clean rooms, exceptionally friendly and efficient staff, nice free continental breakfast, at a great price. A short 7-10 minutye walk to the CTA train station at Thorndale, from which the red line will get you to the Miracle Mile, the Loop, or River North. We also found the hotel conveniently located to tae the train north to Evanstown for the PSU vs. Northwestern football game - Hail to the Lion! We will definitely use this hotel again when visiting our son in Chicago! Mehr

Heart of Chicago is a quaint, 1950's style motel. If you're expecting swanky, downtown digs, this is not it. But, if you appreciate a value and kitchy bathroom decor, you'll be quite pleased. The breakfast was very sparse but, overall, the place was clean, conveniently located, and cost effective. I would definitely stay there again.

The hotel needs more parking spaces for peak times.

Decent hotel for the money. No frills. No hair dryer, but not too bad for the city, when trying to stay somewhere in Chicago on a budget.

Saturday night we got in at 10 pm and got the last parking space (handicapped, so we told the desk clerk). At 3 am we were called to move our car - by mistake, as we weren't blocking anyone. However, there were at least six cars that were blocked. Hope they weren't trying to get to the airport on time.

great place to stay when you'd rather spend your money out doing all of the things you'll be doing rather than lounging in your room. It's inexpensive- located near great food & trains & buses! note to Heart: I could do with out all of the spider webs on the railings). This is not a place i would bring my little chicldren- but for a weekend away w/ […] friends to get out & about - it's awesome- we wouldn't stay anywhere else! Mehr

The motel is basic but clean and service was great. We did not do the continental breakfast so cannot comment on that. Through my own error I forgot to ask for a non smoking room so the room we had a very stale smoke smell. Had to wash everything when I got home. They were booked solid so I could not switch rooms. I would stay there again.

Quaint? This might be a good description of Heart O' Chicago! We felt like we had stepped back into the 50's. However, the staff was nice, our room was clean, plenty of parking, Wi-Fi, etc. We stayed 2 nights because we went to 2 Cubs games. Found several good restaurants nearby and Target was just up the street. What more could we want?

the Hotel is old and the room is very outdated furniture old maTtress very soft . Bathroom looked to be updated last in the in 1970 HOWEVER THE ROOM WAS VERY VERY CLEAN . The location of our Groundfloor room was faceing the Street with the Busstop right in front of the Window and on a very noisy Street , Wrigleyfield is close by and N.Lincoln Ave is […] not far and thats where we wanted to be for the German Festival . I I would stay there again if I could get a different Room location ,Continental Breakfast included ,PARKING IS FREE a rarety in the Chicago area . I will not recommend to my Friends because they all have more Money then I do and therefore are able to stay at the expensive Hotels downtown and they have to have them 400 Threadcount sheets lol. I am o giving it a RATING OF 3BECAUSE THE rOOM WAS REALL YREALLY CLEAN . Mehr

If u need a place to lay ur head while going to a couple games its the perfect spot. Clean, convenient, free parking & staff nice.

I was skeptical even after reading the reviews here...but Heart O' Chicago was awesome. It's in a great neighborhood, it was extremely clean and conveniently located. Most importantly, it was inexpensive! Lastly, there is this cool little neighborhood pub, Wild Rover, across the street that was pure Chicago. Had a blast hanging out there and enjoying […] Chicago!! Mehr

I was really impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel. It was unbeleivable!! Although it was apparently an older location, it was the cleanest hotel that I have stayed in for several years. That includes the chain motels. The location of the hotel was very convenient to the Chicago Bus service - 2 stops within a block of the hotel. I would recommend […] this hotel for a nice clean, comfortable stay. Mehr

just what I was looking for

There is nothing good but location. That's what you pay for. Everything else is much less then average.

This is a clean place to stay. We were in town to take care of our granddaughter for a couple of days, so we didn't need plush surroundings. For Chicago, the price was okay - the next night we paid half the price for a similar room.

we visited chicago to settle our child into college. really a motel; inner city location met our needs. attendants were pleasant. rooms were remarkably clean; the dated decor was charming. we did not need a pool or many TV channels. was surprised to find no shampoo or hairdryer. AC was equal to larger hotels. breakfast was good and basic - although […] carb heavy. traffic noise did not interfere with sleep. would recommend to those looking for a clean, conveniently located motel with pleasant staff and free breakfast and offstreet parking!

Ok. It is Chicago. If you are from Indiana you are not going to get it. If you are from Miami or New York this place will be comforting. Not fancy just solid and friendly. Walked to the supermarket for snacks, really great restaurants. Drove in from the LSD. Fantastic!

We stayed here after a Cubs game and visited the Shed Aquarium in the morning. The location couldn't have been better-- close to everything. The surrounding neighborhoods would have been fun to check out too had we more time (lots of outdoor shopping districts, coffee shops, book stores). The hotel itself is more of a motel. Old, worn, noisy. We wondered […] if some of the residents were long-term renters. When booking the room, no one answered the phone anytime we tried to call-- apparently you have to book on-line, so I think it would be difficult to request any kind of special accommodations (king bed vrs two full size, e.g.). But wi-fi was free, there was a pretty decent free breakfast (cereals, donuts, fresh fruit, juice, coffee), and the price was reasonable for the location. I'd stay there again, though I might bring a nice mattress pad because the beds were not very comfortable. This hotel is great for a place to stay, but don't expect any luxury. Mehr

this hotel was very clean and appeared to be in a good neighborhood. the rooms were good size and had the essentials, but no microwave or fridge. the breakfast was decent. the staff were very nice. the only downfall during my stay was that the hotel was about 1/2 mile from the "L"(subway), and the buses only came once every 30 min- 1 hour, so alot of […] walking occured. once you got to the subway station it was very easy to get anywhere in chicago you wanted to go. i would stay here agian and just bring comfortable shoes. thanks Mehr

In a nutshell it was a good value for the price..When I checked in room 110 the A/C was pumping away..75 degree air!! A small child's toy was left on the floor that the housekeeper missed. They moved me to a nicer room upstairs. Be VERY careful walking around the TV shelf as the edges are sharp and near where some drawers are. I hit my forehead walking […] around it to get to the drawers. I brought up a suggestion to put rubber feet on the edges but they didn't seem to care. So I can't give them a high rating overall. It's not the Hyatt but generally it's a good bet.Just make sure your AC unit it working in the Summer right away or head back to the front desk ! Mehr

Front desk person was not corteous. Toom credit card charge me without letting me know when asked what he had charged he told me when i requested proof he gkt upset showed it and walked away. No something i recomend. And rooms smell weird.

The employees are pleasant. It is a bit of a walk to the local El (subway) stop, but it is doable. Andersonville is a nice neighborhood. Unfortunately, a fire alarm went off at night, waking up several people during my stay.

The motel was very close and convenient to downtown Chicago, which was where all our venues and destinations were located (Navy Pier, Willis Tower, John Hancock Observatory, Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, Adler Planetarium, Magnificent Mile). However, the room was sprayed with a LOT of febreze or airwick, or some kind of air freshener. The smell was […] so strong, breathing kinda hurt. Overall it was clean, convenient and comfortable. The triple C's of travelling. It was the scent that bothered us. Mehr

I was a bit skeptical about this hotel when booking because of the price and its relatively close location to downtown. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. The room was very clean and well maintained and the area around the hotel seemed quite nice.

Very clean, nice location, cheap. Continental BF was OK. TV channel selection was terrible. Questionable safety: on our second night we saw police going into another room with handguns drawn and another officer in the parking lot carrying an assault rifle. An AK47 if I'm correct. Made me very nervous to be their with my child.
