Chicago Athenaeum Theatre Hotels

"The room is infested with mites that cause scabies"

"We enjoyed everything about Hotel Zachary - the location right across the street from Wrigley Field, the neighborhood, the room, the staff, the 2nd floor bar and gathering space, the bagel shop on the first floor. "

"I was surprised to see how close the bed was to the door. The room above ours was pretty noisy, it sounded like a herd of elephants stampeding around the room at different times in the night. It could definitely used some updating. The trim paint was peeling off in our bathroom. I asked at check in if I could have a late check out for Noon and the guy at the desk said that would be no problem. I received a rude call at 11:10 telling me checkout was supposed to be at 11:00am. I told her the desk last night said I could check out late and she said there were no notes of it but she did say ok, but then I felt rushed to get out of there. "

"Thin walls. "

"They were renovating the restaurant, so no food in the hotel. When I made the reservation, it said parking could be added. It was not mentioned it was a block away and no direct entry to the hotel. "

"Room and building very clean, open spaces to room next door make it a bit noisy and decreases overall privacy. Good location, foam mattress kind of bad. Absolutely cannot check in even a minute early. Not sure I would go back"

"The apartment was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Communication with the host was easy. It was nice to have the parking spot, though it is a little tight if you have a large vehicle. Regardless, I was able to park our minivan in the spot. We would definitely stay here again. "

"Very communicative host! This is an older apartment so do not expect new and glamorous things! But it’s an amazing location and very affordable! I had a great time and enjoyed my stay"

"Great and spacious, and well stocked. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, and the location is terrific for getting downtown, maybe a 10 minute walk to the El stop. Even came with a coffee maker and pre-ground coffee. Would definitely stay again if it’s available. No parking but it turned out I was almost always able to get a free spot basically across and a little down the street. Walking distance to a wide variety of restaurants as well as groceries. "
