Rodeway Inn Chicago/Evanston

Extremely accommodating!

My favorite place to dip in for an overnight in the city!

Okay, we weren't expecting a 5 star hotel. It is, after all, Roadway Inn. Since we were only in town for a wedding, we booked based on price and location. This property is definitely dated. I don't know if it was the area of the town, but the "office, front desk" was behind a sheet of bullet proof glass with a speaker hole and a gas station tray to pass your info thru. The clerk was friendly enough, but complained about a delivery guy that came while I was checking in. She assured me that the entire parking area and doors to rooms were under surveillance 24/7. We walked into our 2nd floor room after climbing a very narrow and steep staircase but were pleasantly surprised to see a clean room at first glance. After checking for bedbugs and finding no evidence of them, we were satisfied with the accommodations for the price we paid. When planning on taking a shower before we left for the wedding, we noticed that there was only one washcloth and two bath towels, no hand towels, no amenities except one small bar of hand soap. I went down to the office and told the desk clerk that we only had one washcloth and he said "that's because we probably ran out, washcloths are hard to come by, sorry." I said OhhhKaay and went back to tell my wife. Thankfully, she is always prepared and brought along some washcloths she uses for removing makeup, so, we made do. All in all, this isn't the worst place we've ever stayed, trust me, we've stayed in places far worse than this.

The lady staff when we checked in was very helpful. Property outside was little dirt room was great and comfortable.
