If you're looking for a dump at which to stay in Chicago... may I recommend the Congress Plaza. This hotel will certainly grant your every wish... providing you wish for a smelly room with cigarette burns on the carpet and bedspread, an icy cold shower with the same water pressure as a cheap plastic squirt gun, an air conditioner that dates back to the Truman administration only capable of slightly warming the already hot and humid stale air, a television made before the invention of the remote control, and insects....yes, insects(bathtub insects, closet and dresser insects, and everyones favorite... bed insects). That's right gentle readers... Chicagos worst hotel welcomes you (or at least the former employees who are picketing out front for almost 5 YEARS will!).
I wish I had something positive to say about this flea-bag/crack-house of a hotel... but I don't. When in Chicago, STAY ANYWHERE BUT HERE!!! (you'll thank me later!)
Pros: I finally finished my work and was able to GET OUT of this dump!
Cons: there isn't enough space for me to list them all - such a disappointment - stay away!
