Situated at 3475 N Clark St, this boutique hotel blends modern design with local charm, making it an ideal choice for sports fans and visitors drawn to the area’s bustling nightlife and cultural pulse. With a respectable 3.9 rating, the hotel strikes a balance between comfort and convenience.

Guests applaud the hotel's clean, stylish interiors and thoughtfully curated furnishings. The rooms highlight crisp lines and well-chosen accents, creating a welcoming atmosphere that feels both fresh and relaxing. Comfort is a standout feature, especially the cozy beds that many describe as a perfect retreat after a busy day exploring Chicago or attending a game at iconic Wrigley Field, located just steps away.

My son moved 2 blocks from this hotel so I decided to try it out. My trip was delayed a day because of weather, and the hotel was accommodating with the change in dates of arrival and departure. Check in was super fast and staff was friendly. The room was clean, the bed amazingly comfortable, and hotel quiet. I’ve found my go-to hotel when visiting my son. Oh, and there’s a great pizza place two doors down! Bonus.

The room was beautiful. Clean lines perfectly chosen accents and furnishings. However, easy to hear the people above you and in the hallway. The shower was very cool, but the flooring was leveled that the shower was higher than the bathroom floor. So some water escaped the shower and got my suitcase/bag all wet since it was under the sink. I noticed the floor levels the night before but stupidly didn't plan for it when I showered the next more. Alas... Was surprised there wasn't free coffee, but I stopped by a local shop instead. Would recommend. It was so cool looking inside. Stood in the doorway and admired a few minutes when we got in.

Great location, modern and clean. Great fun neighborhood vibe which includes a night life out the window which we enjoyed. We found plenty of free street parking 0.5 miles away, which was a quick walk. During COVID-19 apparently there is no staff in the hotel which was a surprise for us. The staff is only available via text preferred not ideal for us. No refrigerator in room. 5 Stars because without COVID it wouldn't been a 5 star stay.

A great smaller hotel. Steps away from Wrigley Field and all that comes with it. The aesthetics are on point! No one tells you about the roof top area which is absolutely breathtaking! We read bad reviews about not being able to get back into the hotel but we tried our cards before we left and had no problem later that night even after a few beers. Only con is there is no parking unless you pay a hefty price for event parking or a garage or luckily find street parking. We will most definitely stay again!
