McCormick Place Guest House

This Guest House is a very nice getaway. You have full access to everything which is great and it’s also for a great price. No one disturbs you and no one bothers anyone so it’s like your in a house just with people you might see from time to time 😂 the only thing I didn’t like was there aren’t personal tvs In the rooms you’ll have to use the common area for that. Otherwise I give this 5 stars will be returning.

This place was amazing!! Room was very clean and bathroom was excellent. Overall be and my partner had a great experience!! Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful use of the bldg as far as build out and decor. I did not like the shared space aspect of the common areas. It was not clearly advertised that that was the case

The owners of the property are terrible with their communication and literally waited until 2 hours before check in to send the link to pay the deposit. They sent the information regarding check in one minute before check in time. The room was decent but poorly lit, I had to use the light on my phone majority of the time just to see or open the curtains. This property is located directly across the streets from the projects and is in an unsafe neighborhood so I don’t recommend walking anywhere at night. You will see people hanging out at night. The cops were arresting someone right next door to the property my last night there. Bring your own towels because you won’t get a wash cloth. Overall, you get what you pay for don’t expect much and you’ll be fine.

Villa Dubois owns more than one property. I never received any communications from them before my stay and checked out their website, which had specific instructions mentioned nowhere on *******. When you call, there’s no option to speak to anyone OR to even leave a message. They say to email or text only. I sent 2 texts and one email before my booking and never heard back. I never received emails with how to access the property, and when I arrived the housekeeper refused to let me in by using Google translate to tell me her boss said no. I finally received a text from her boss saying there was an issue to the room I had and I would have to walk 3 blocks away to another of their homes. I did and still couldn’t get in because I hadn’t received the access instructions email. Once I finally did, there were only 2 towels for my 4 day visit, one of which was torn and stained, dead gnats and mosquitoes in the bathroom, someone else’s toilet paper in the toilet, no shampoo, conditioner or soap and the thermostat had a lock on it where I couldn’t adjust the temperature. They charged me a deposit outside of ******* when I checked in via square and didn’t opt to refund it until a week after I checked out, and it took another week to go through. I cannot believe I was made to walk around bronzeville with my luggage and groceries with no way to contact them, and they refused to pay for my Uber or Lyft to the next house just for it to be in the shape it was in.

Response to inquiries was always quick. I just slept here and didn't spend much time, Other than the brief noisy chatter from other guests late in the evening, I was overall satisfied.

The bed was comfortable, sharing a bathroom was a little inconvenient but not terrible, and there's a nice shared kitchen and living space upstairs. I was sick for my stay and couldn't find tissues anywhere which I think should be stocked in every room. I quickly noticed that the smoke detector was missing in my room (empty bracket), and the window is missing the catch for the latch so there's no way to lock it. Someone could get in from the outside without any trouble. On the security note, the doors to the rooms are super lightweight and it felt like a joke to lock your door. Better doors would also reduce noise from people talking in the hallway, etc. There were some things about the bathroom that needed maintenance too, like the faucet was wiggly, the shelf above the toilet sloped downward (maybe that's to discourage leaving anything there), and the shower door leaked out onto the floor. The shower head was spraying water on the ceiling until I tightened it. I get that this is a budget place to stay, but please fix the basic safety things.

There was an inconvenience with a room we previously booked but the host was very quick with accommodations and responded quickly every time. Everything else was great for the one night that we stayed. Would definitely stay again.

Terrible experience, I got robbed and had to leave. No refund or anything. Horrible worst experience of my life. DO NOT PURCHASE!
