"OK, so this is a Days Inn and not the Ritz, so review is normalized to expectations. Why this property: needed a place to stay overnight passing through Chicago. The places downtown charge more for parking overnight than this place does for the room, so staying ~5-10 miles outside downtown didn't seem like a bad idea. If circumstances were different, I would not choose this place. However, this place fell a bit short of what I expected from Days Inn, hence 2 stars. Drive in. The property is located in Calumet park. The surroundings seemed a little beaten down, but not unsafe. Around Chicago, this is within what one might expect, Check-in was good. The staff were helpful and asked us to repark where they could see our car on the security camera. Room cleanliness. Beds and sheets were clean. Bathroom and countertop in the bathroom were clean. Carpet in the room, headboards, side chair were **not **clean or dusted. We chose to not use them. Prompted a bug check and beds were fine. Condition of property. Like the neighborhood, the property looks beaten down. Doors, walls and elevators were looked old and worn. The bathroom had major amounts of caulk/putty around the sink, indicating intent of maintenance on the cheap. The bathroom door could not be locked. Staff was friendly and offered coffee when I went down to ask for a bar of soap :-) I've stayed at other Days Inns in better condition, but kudos to the staff to make the most of what the property offers."

"Clean room, comfortable beds."

"I’ve been coming here for years. I’ve always had great customer service which is amazing. I recommend to anyone. The only complaint is the pool is very cold. "

"The a/c was great the bed comfy very helpful staff!"

"The rooms are decent. They don't offer daily housekeeping, however, you can return your dirty towels to the front desk for clean towels, and if you need plates, silverware, etc, go to the front desk. YHou have to empty your garbage out yourself, and get new garbage bags from the front desk. I just wish there were ovens in the kitchen, and some pots to heat up your food. There is a stovetop in the room and a full-size fridge."

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The bed was very cozy, which made it easy to relax and get a great night’s sleep. I also really appreciated how quiet the room was, creating a peaceful atmosphere throughout my stay. Not mentioning that my room was at the 1st floor. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed. Every part of the experience felt smooth and well organized, from check in to check out. The hotel itself was in a great location and made my trip even more enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant place to"

"It’s good for a few hours, but that’s it. There was a blood stain on the curtains. A lot of white crusty stains by the bottom of the bed, leading to the bathroom. The door next to my room slammed so loud throughout the night, it shook me every single time. The shuttle bus was a short ride thankfully, but that thing sounded like it was about to fall apart. The only good thing about this Sleep Inn is the convenience of it being so close to Midway. I probably won’t return."

"Will continue to stay at his location with great staff and amenities. This particular was off with renovations going on in hotel. HVAC in room would not work properly and assumed it was with ongoing work."

"Everything clean "
