Be Prepared for Train & Traffic Noises

Beds are soft & the plastic around the matress is worthless.

  • Insider tip:Plan your day to utilize this great doentown location. But be prepared to be a little sore & sleepy from the soft beds.

Great place to spend some time in.

Getting around can be tricky. It seems that transit routes are ALWAYS under major construction. The bus lines stops and routes are really well marked though. And I love Chicago-style Polish sausages!
