Stayed here one night for an event at the University and though the location was good, our view from the room was great the hotel could used some improving! Wall paper was peeling in the bathroom and the chairs in the room were old and losing their padding. The front desk staff was not friendly and some were rude. My... More

This is a fine hotel to come, stay, take a shower and walk to downtown Evanston. It will save you money over the other name brand calls. The staff is very nice and was quite helpful to me. The facility is worn in places, and there is no fancy lobby, or beautiful front entrance. The rooms lack available plugs -... More

Nothing terrific, but nothing too awful. The location is GREAT! It is walking distance to S.P.A.C.E (the concert venue we attended). The Best Western parking garage is dark, old and creepy (I would not go in there at night without my husband). The room was large and decent, had all the amenities that we needed. When we checked in, the... More

If you need to be in Evanston or near Northwestern University, this BW seems to be a decent budget option in the area. Check-in was friendly, if glacially slow (there was one guest before me), then again I just flew in from NY so perhaps not being fair. The room was a blast from the past as well, but very... More

This hotel was fine for an overnight stay. We requested a quiet room so did not face the EL which was nice. The temperature in our room was not consistent...if you were close to the air conditioner you would freeze but the rest of the room stayed warm. It was a slow check in with only one person working the... More

This is an average hotel in a good location. Hotel staff is uniformly helpful and friendly. Entering the hotel from the attached parking garage provides an extremely poor first impression of the hotel. The garage stairway is dirty, dark and damp and downright creepy. Couple of tips for fellow travelers: When you get to your room and insert the key... More

...Just your average hotel in every way. Location is it's best feature - close to downtown and easy access to the EL. Not impressed with the front desk service as we encountered the usual difficulties with BW archaic rewards system 'benefits'. (We could speak volumes on that topic!!) In addition, we requested a taxi to the airport upon our departure... More

Clean room, fairly comfortable bed. Bathroom was small and on the gross side, tiles popping off, dirty grout. Overall hotel needs updated, feels a little like an old nursing home. Location was good, although if you're a light sleeper constant noise from el could keep you up. Fitness room adequate at best. More

Nice older hotel, inexpensive and parking right next to it. Restaurant/bar across the street if desired. Close to downtown Evanston. Complementary breakfast. More
