“I found a genuine sense of spaciousness in its suites, a refreshing alternative to standard Evanston accommodations. Its location proved ideal for accessing both the university and nearby attractions like Loyola, and the little extras-kitchenettes, free parking, and even a pet-friendly policy-add real value. For anyone prioritizing space and convenience, it stands out.”
