Better than sleeping on the street.
While I was staying there at first I was thinking to write an all bad review because of the stink, stained bedsheets, damaged doors, walls, disgusting bathroom and human hairs found everywhere. The old in room air-conditioning unit was very loud and old, so I've turned it off and kept it off the whole stay because of the noise, the fact that it was 2 feet from my head, blowing air directly in my face and because it looked like it hasn't been professionally disinfected or even cleaned in years.
Worse I did not feel safe there.
Then I reconsidered. The price of 90 USD per night in south Chicago in mid September was still cheaper than the majority of options available (with real established hotel chains often asking for 800+ USD per night). And despite a horrible first impression of being given a room the reeked of smoke (despite advertising as a smoke free establishment) the staff did what they could, and up on request I got another room that was at least aired out or ozone cleaned (based on the smell there). Also, though they charged 104 USD for the safety deposit and gave back only 100. At least they gave it back, which meant that I did not need to go to the police to get my money back, saving some time.
SUM: you get what you pay for. Lowest price, with low quality. I can only recommend it to strong men who do not care about hygiene and are traveling on a tight budget.
It is better than sleeping on the street.
