Convenient but very dated. Needs a renovation. And not cheap.

Comfort Suites Chicago O'Hare Airport
Solo female traveler, stayed one night. Convenient location for early flight from O’Hare. Staff was great, room was good. Stayed on 7th floor and it smelled like a mildew cigarette in the hallways

Hyatt Place Chicago/O'Hare Airport
The property did not have breakfast ready at the normal time so many of us with early flights did not get to eat. The opening was delayed one hour.

Worst place I’ve ever seen in my life. I did NOT stay here and they won’t refund either. Would definitely advise to stay far far away.
