Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago

Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago

8/10 Good
"Room was fairly clean. There were some small snips of paper or a wrapper on the floor inside the closet but nothing too big of a deal. The room we reserved (coworker and myself) stated two twin beds. I was thinking these are probably full but say twin. We got checked in and up to our room which the hallway was small; the hotel was very old but in good shape. The room literally had TWIN beds. It was fine we just needed a place to lay our heads as we were gone to a conference for work both days we stayed. Bed was soft and comfortable. No fridge in room but again not a deal breaker. Shower took a while to heat up but again we were on the 8th floor and the building is old. Again not a problem. Stay was good value for the week considering we were in the loop of Chicago. Would stay again!!"
