Good stay, comfortable and clean
Very clean and loved the location, good breakfast too. The room could have been slightly bigger, but that was mentioned by the lobby that it will be compact

Fantastic location
Excellent location. Rooms are on the smaller side, but comfy beds and good bathroom is all we needed. Would definitely stay here again.
I added the $80/day parking on this website - I don’t recommend this, it’s $55 at the hotel. Parking conveniently located.

Not a bad place for a Chicago Trip
The wife and I wanted to stay near the Harry Potter Store for a few days. We chose Holiday Inn Express based on price and name recognition.
The pros
-quick and easy check in
-inexpensive
-convenient location
-just a few minutes walk to Red Line Station
The cons
-Room was small
-No Fridge
Overall we liked the hotel. We might decide to spend a little more on a nicer place next time. There may have been nicer/larger rooms in the higher floors. It was nice having Trader Joe’s on the next block. We also walked to eat at Gordon Ramsays, Quartino and Eatily.
We mainly wanted to be within walking distance of the Harry Potter store, and this fit the bill
