Super cute inn. Room is small but was a good size for us. Loved that the inn caretaker has a friendly dog. Great communication. Email included precise instructions and pictures. We found street parking quickly although I don’t know if that’s the norm. Walkable to Wrigley & a safe walk. Breakfast was as promised, basically a snack until we could get to a restaurant. I recommend paying extra for the attached bathroom.

The room was very spacious. We had our own separate bathroom; it was close by, easy to access, and clean. It's a nice neighborhood. Rachel and Chris only recently took over managing this property and when I texted Rachel with a couple of minor issues she was very responsive. The candy in the lobby and the availability of cereal and coffee are nice touches. There is a loud bar next door. The noise didn't bother us too much but if that is a concern I suggest to ask for a room that is not directly on the street side.

Everyone was helpful from the outset. I appreciated being able to drop off our luggage when we arrived early, as the staff were still getting our room ready. We ate at a few restaurants in the area and the Belmont L station was a few steps away, which was very convenient.

The staff was very nice and the location was an easy walking distance to Wrigley Field. Parking was much easier than I expected. I liked the charm of this older building and the history behind it. I only wish the bed in room 1C was firmer. But all things considered, it was a great stay.

The Old Chicago Inn was perfect for my partner and I. We wanted to stay in and near a few particular points of interest to us and this checked all the boxes. Wonderful staff that never hesitated to handle our out of towner issues. Not a traditional hotel many bedrooms do not have an in bedroom restroom which can be intimidating or embraced. Shared common areas that were truly shared and enabled me to meet a few other vacationers. For my partner and I this is better in many aspects. Things I did not like? We stayed two nights and I would need to really pick things apart to find things I had any real issue with.

I was apprehensive about my stay going in based on an interaction I had with the old manager however what I walked into was a gorgeous B&B with the nicest people ever. Haven’t actually slept yet and there’s still check out but if it is anything like check in I’m excited to plan my next stay!

When I came into the room. The restroom had feces left in the toilet. When I called the Inn Keeper about a faulty heating unit in my room, they made it seem as though I didn’t know how to use the electric heater properly, when, in fact, the electric heater has a short in it. She even explained that other customers have complained about it too, yet they didn’t want to do anything about it. The customer service was incredibly poor.

We had a wonderful stay in Chicago! Old Chicago Inn is a hidden gem. Eclectic and charming BnB. Not a typical hotel experience - feels much more personal with added modern elements - keyless entry.

This property is in close proximity to transportation and restaurants/ bars. Older guest may have difficulty at entry and climbing stairs with luggage. First room entry indicated a bed frame and headboard problem.... They were coming apart. Notified the Innkeeper via text and was told the bed was structurally sound. Also was unable to be moved or receive a financial credit. Lucky to book a room with private bathroom but it was most difficult to use the toilet due to the TINY space provided. We will never return to this property!

It’s an older property and certain things are to be expected. The room was clean, but cold and no extra blankets provided. The bathroom, although known to be a shared bathroom, was extremely small. No towel hooks, the toilet kept running and the faucet in the tub also kept dripping, and there was no fan. There was supposed to be someone at the reception from 9-11am, but we never saw anyone.

This is a great location and one of the only places I found with free parking. I was able to find a spot about within 2 blocks each time I needed to park. The area felt very safe and had good choices for food nearby. Contactless check-in was great. The building is old and creaky, if you're very sensitive to noise this may not be the best choice for you. I was here for work and didn't have an issue going to bed early and waking up early!
