Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question we haven't covered? Drop us a line or stop by the front desk and we'll find the answer!

Age requirements

Slumber party? Sorry, adult supervision is required. To reserve a room and check in, guests must be 21+ with valid identification.

Connecting rooms

Want your friends next door? We offer connecting rooms between Deluxe Kings and Corner Suites. Give us a call at 312-337-1000. Subject to availability.

Credit card policy

Got plastic? We require a major credit card to be presented at check-in time. The card must belong to the guest checking in to the room (and match their photo ID.)  Credit cards will be authorized for the full amount of room and tax, PLUS $100 per day for incidentals. Since most banks don’t release authorizations for 7 to 10 days after check-out time, we don’t recommend using a debit card at check-in. And, sorry Charlie, unfortunately we can’t accept cash as a form of deposit or payment. Credit cards and debit cards are welcome forms of payment at check-out.

Picking up a tab

Footing the bill? How generous! To cover another party’s room charges and/or incidentals, please complete our credit card authorization form and return within 72 hours of the scheduled arrival. Please fax to 312-757-8988.

Applicable taxes

All room rates are subject to applicable taxes, with Uncle Sam’s take currently at 17.4% per room, per night.

Extra beds

  • Baby bed didn’t fit in the suitcase? Cribs are available by request at no additional charge.
  • Bed hogs stealing your covers? Rollaway beds are available for a nightly fee of $30.

Late check-outs & early check-ins

  • Arriving early or trying to sleep in? Standard check-in time is 4pm and check-out time is 11am.
  • Early check-ins are based on availability and are not guaranteed. Late check outs are subject to availability.
  • Any guest checking out after 11am, but before 4pm will be charged a late check-out fee equal to half of the nightly rate plus tax. Check-outs after 4pm will be charged the full nightly rate.
