Dorothy's

We wanted to stay in Wrigley Field near the CTA. Dorothy's was a perfect choice for that. We were there two nights and appreciated having the studio apartment. Not only did we have an ensuite bathroom but also a large sitting room that included a table/chairs, fridge coffee maker and microwave. Plenty of restaurants to chose from. The downside for me was the noise from the pizza parlor downstairs and across the street. If you are a light sleeper, earplugs are advised. The staircase is steep and narrow. ( just so you know) Being there was a trip down memory lane. A fun stay for certain! Breakfast is next door and plenty of choices to serve yourself.

Said they had parking was street parking and the streets were packed. The feeling was breakfast like a B&B but cereal, waffle maker and some pastries and no coffee made, empty pot. Security is like a prison. lock boxes everywhere. 3rd floor, steps. More of a hostel than a hotel. They had a 4pm check in. We found a parking place 20 minutes before 4 and I asked for my code to get in and they refused. It came at 4. The place was old, the room tiny and it was not cheap. I would not go here again. No one there so you have to do things for yourself. You have to go online and fill out registration which includes picture of yourself and you drivers license because no one will be around. A hassle I have never experienced with a hotel. I had trouble getting to their websites cause their attached web address's were not links. I had to write them down and type them into my phone. Tried on my computer but you can't copy a picture into their site for the drivers license. You have to take a live picture and my computer didn't like that. Just aggravation that you don't need at the price of a decent hotel.

I hated that they're was absolutely know communication except through text. Have a question text. Need to ask something text. Building was nice but a little loud but not to bad. Just poor communication.

It’s very weird. I felt like I was breaking in a house

Place extremely difficult to locate. Took 15 minutes to locate upon arrival. No signs or labels anywhere. Bed small. Room small. Not enough for 2 adult males. Noise from people partying went on thru 5am.! Bar below room. Check in process rediculous. No live person at any time at all. No contact info beyond electronic. Checkout same. We already were gone by 2 hours when they requested checkout timeframe. Were texted to leave bedroom door open too late to do so. Neighborhood seems to be predominatly gay. We are NOT. Should be mentioned in advertising somewhere. Was unclear whether we were welcome to use common area or not. Place was clean. Showers/bathrooms nice

Perfect for a night. Nice shared living space and 2 bathrooms. Didn’t have any issues or even see anyone else there

Great to stay, close walk to many places. Cleaning lady was very helpful and friendly. Rooms a bit small but would definitely stay there again.

Staff was nearly nonexistent. Arrived 20 minutes early. Texted owner and was told check in was 4:00, even though no one was there. Was told I could check in any time after 4:00, but wasn’t given access until 4:05. Room we stayed on was the 3rd floor. Room was very warm and could have used a ceiling fan. Breakfast was minimal and would have been a good chance to interact with the owner. Felt like owners wanted nothing to do with us.

No place to park

Loved the space - it was like a private apartment with a living room, kitchenette area, bathroom, bedroom. Was promised a parking pass, which was never delivered. The closeness to Wrigley Field and Southport area was fabulous. Be prepared for night noise from nearby establishments - the owners are quite upfront about that. I (we) would definitely stay here again.
