Independent hotels in South Side, Chicago

"Common areas are spacious and well kept. Room was sufficient with a bed and chair and clean. I was provided two bath towels and hand towels. Although unusual, sharing a common bathroom wasn’t an issue for me and the bathroom was kept clean. "

"Room was very clean, staff extremely friendly, and great dining options. Would stay there again in the future."

"Didnt use shuttle. Brkfst good"

"It was very pleasant"

"Nice place to stay to catch a flight at midway airport "

"only the shower floor grout looked dirty so i bought slippers in China town. Everything else was perfect. Location for convention center parking and subway."

"The room was clean and cute. It had a comfortable bed and a desk and that’s all we really needed. The area was fairly quiet and a great location to catch a bus or take a quick drive to the parts of city we visited (The Loop and Hyde Park). We had access to street parking directly in front of the property. The shared common areas were a fun aesthetic and very tidy. Online communication with the property managers was timely and direct. We definitely enjoyed our brief stay :)"

"Awesome experience. Beautiful spacious room. Full access shower. Nice sofa that could have slept two more people comfortably. Nice quirk was a record player and LPs. We called down and requested more albums."

"At one point, Rainbow Motel.may have been down, but the new owners are worki g to turn the experience around. What you get: a clean room with TV and a comfortable bed and shower. But, youre also RIGHT across from arguably one of the BEST bakeries in the country (Weber's Bakery -fresh morning sonuts and pastries), around the corner from Chicago's most popular beef sandwich (Portillo's), within a 2 minute walk of several other restaurants as well as an Aldi, Walgreens and Ace Hardware. BUT... the big perk is a stop on the Archer line out front 50' away. (also a late night bus if you do a late Chocago night) and 1.5 mins walk from the OHare (330) bus. These things made it an ideal cheap stay in a clean room for someone who flew in and out with no car for a music festival. It was SUPER easy to get around and time transit. And dont overlook that late night bus perk. That said, if this is a family vacation, do your homework, but it was an easy yes for a single or couple of adults travelling on a budget. "
