    Cozy, clean, locally owned, vintage gem!

    Nothing worth complaining about!

    Our room was clean and comfortable and a thorough search for any of the nuisances that were in other online reviews revealed nothing to worry about. The location isn't quite central, but it is a pretty quiet spot; since most visitors to Evanston are in a car, it's just fine to hop in and get anywhere quickly. We loved the wide hallways and the spacious rooms, as well as the cozy, vintage lobby (especially when they had the fireplace going). If you stay here, you're also supporting local business!

    A mostly-good place to stay, though it could be a bit better.

    1. There is no on-site clerk during the graveyard shift. One will come from home if there is an emergency, which is a good thing, but the basic set-up makes emergency situations be difficult. 2. The maids were talking to each other loudly in the inside corridor in the middle of the morning, which ruined my sleep. There's no reason why they could not have talked to each other quietly. I don't know what they were thinking. 3. Water was not offered as a beverage in the Middle Lobby. And although the clerk was able to get me a small bottle of water, it wasn't cold.

    1. The lady clerk who checked me in was very caring and helpful. 2. The internal corridor that lets you go from your room to the main lobby and to the secondary lobby ("Middle Lobby") is very useful, because you don't have to go outside in order to go to the lobby or get ice. 3. The place is located right next to Jody's Diner, which is a good thing.

    Excellent for a budget friendly hotel. My ongoing Evanston choice. Happy. Walk across the parking lot for a Excellent diner. More restaurants close. East edge of town feels very secure. Breakfast was adequate. But breakfast at the diner was awesome!! Discussing adjusting travel plans to spend another night there on the way back. Thanks.

    Nothing. It exceeded my expectations.

    Nice people! Rooms are large, very clean, and well equipped. It's an older place so a bit worn around the edges, but not enough to keep me from staying here again.

    Not much we didn't like. We felt the value we got for our money was great.

    Excellent staff. They moved us to a different room as our original room had some equipment issues that couldn't be fixed quickly. Staff was super helpful with the solution.

    Dogs are allowed here, and the thought of them using my bed and other living space gives me the creeps. Plus, they bark. I pine for the old days when dogs were prohibited in hotels.

    Brennan at the front desk chose a good room for me. I appreciate the thought and effort he invested.

    The t.v. in our room didn't have a good signal, the stations kept flickering on and off while watching, and it should be mounted on the wall for more comfortable viewing; and the room seemed very dark, even with all the lamps on.

    Friendly and helpful staff, big, spacious room and a quiet location, close parking to the rooms on the outside with a separate entrance to the inside hallway.

    Towels are not clean. There are several spots of stain on most of the towels.

    Low price. Great for overnight stay in a road trip.
