Chicago Hotel Guide - Illinois Science and Technology Park hotels in Chicago, United States of America.

" Hotel check in was awesome, the gentleman was very friendly and helpful. All of their front desk employees were very accommodating and friendly. The hotel lobby was in great condition and very clean. The hotel room was comfortable and well maintained. The carpet in the room was cleaned well with no smells. The ice and vending machines were working. I enjoyed the numerous cable channels and WiFi. There are many restaurants in the area that deliver food but will need to meet the delivery person for the food. In order to use the elevator you have to scan your key. Breakfast was very reasonable but there were no healthy options. The outside was a little confusing as what door to enter, but overall for the price it was worth it. The breakfast staff was not the most welcoming. The male greeter was not friendly and the female said nothing. My first concern was the shower and toilet were not disability friendly. Tub was slippery when wet toilet was super low to the floor which was difficult to manage with painful knees. My second, concern was the area where the hotel is located has changed since the last time I was in the area. I would be careful walking around alone if you are a female. Overall, this is the first hotel I encountered on your site that was not deceptive in its handling of its business. "

"The hotel was clean, so was the room. The staff was friendly and helpful. When I booked the room I didn’t realized it was a fully furnished room with a regular sized fridge and a little electric stove. Loved it"

"Hotel was okay. When we arrived at check in, we have been asked what floor we would like to be, first said 2nd but then quickly said 3rd is better than 2nd. She gave us a Room on 2nd floor ignoring us asking for 3rd. Noise level is typical for a hotel, you hear people walk by and you hear the neighbor's talking. Room was kind of outdated but clean. "

"Room was very clean and quiet. Full equipped with microwave refrigerator. "

"Very nice, clean, quiet and comfortable hotel. I would come back here in the future."

"Yes"

"Excellent location with a great friendly staff. The breakfast with excellent and the location outstanding"

"Phenomenal hotel!! From the moment I walked in my room, I knew that this would be preferred choice for my next Chicago area visit. Great staff, especially the restaurant staff!! Beautiful property. Close to everything, including train!! Only cons: If you book through a 3rd party app (Expedia), let them know immediately or wake up to daily charges. Also, the $50 early check in fee... if my room is already ready, I don't understand the fee. Other than that, you'll have no regrets with The GEM of Evanston!!!"

"The location of the Orrington is excellent but the star of the Orrington is delfinitely its staff. They were friendly, helpful and handled busy and problem situations with grace and solutions. Gotta love the midwest!"
