Located on Ontario and N.St.Clair- this hotel is a perfect spot to walk to Navy Pier, Michigan Ave shopping, and even cross the river. Our stay, however, was not good. A pipe had broke in the hotel a day earlier and it smelt like stale washclothes. In our room the sink was clogged, their was mold on the ceiling, and... more

This hotel was horrible -- dirty and nasty. We only stayed 1 night and I felt like I was going to get lice or worse. The carpets are filthy in the hallways and the rooms. The hair dryer didn't work, the room was creepy and dirty. I slept fitfully and first thing in the morning found another hotel close by... more

The only positive about this hotel is the location. It is extremely convenient not only to Michigan Ave but all the Mag. Mile area. It is 4 blocks to the Red Line (ESPN Zone, Niketown, etc.) We were on a school trip and had 40 kids with 18 rooms. We expected better, and out of 18 rooms you would think... more

We stayed at the Red Roof because we were directed there by a wedding planner. One who must never have visited the site. From a distance the price seemed reasonable for the area, so we booked a room. Where to begin. The elevator: one broken, the other on its way out. The management had the really bad sense to tell... more

My boyfriend and I were attending a wedding taking place on Michigan Avenue the weekend of May 17th, 2008. The groom of the wedding advised us that The Red Roof Inn would be perfect since it was only a 2 blocks away from where the wedding was and it is in such a prime location (a block away from Michigan... more

The Red Roof is one small block from the main shopping street, Michigan Avenue, and therefore good for a number of shops. Unfortunately it's not close to any subway stop, so you may find yourself taking advantage of one of the many taxis which pass the hotel. Our room was comfortable, with TV, iron/ironboard, hair dryer and air conditioner (although... more

Visited Chicago from Cleveland with a group of friends. We stayed at the Red Roof 5/08-5/10/2008. The hotel was ok. The rooms could use some updating or maybe a good scrubbing. We had a corner room and a wonderful view. Our group was all on the same floor. The shower was clogged, called the front desk and they had someone... more

My friend booked a room in this hotel for us to share while in Chicago for a recent conference. And I'll admit, I was a bit worried after reading some of the comments on this and other sites. But I was very pleased with the hotel, the staff, The LOCATION, and the security. This hotel is NOT a luxury or... more

website stated was recently renovated but was not. carpet was stained and filthy. We had a room on the 16th floor and there were ants in the room. There was mildew/mold in the shower. Housekeeping did not make the beds, they changed towels and did nothing else. We talked with the manager on the phone and he said he would... more
