Hotel Chicago

Hotel Chicago

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is located on a pedestrian street but easy to access. If the door is open, the better entrance is up to the left side along by the cafes so you can take lift straight up to 4th floor reception. The receptionist Imina was amazing. She speaks perfect English, dry sense of humour and very friendly. The room was in good condition and comfortable. Only small issue was missing shower door so water went everywhere. The breakfast is huge. You won’t need lunch and included in price. Wifi was fast. Highly recommend."

"A nice, new and basic hotel that’s perfect for an overnight stay. The room was clean and the bed sheets were fresh, although the blankets did have a noticeable body odour and needed a good wash. There was no kettle in the room, but one was provided when I asked. Breakfast was simple but nice, with croissants, bread, butter, jam, honey, fruit and cheese. The coffee machine was a lovely bonus."
