2/10 Poor

Extremely disappointed!!!

It was horrible. I called 3 times prior to our trip to Chicago to check on early check in. We got there it was a complete mess eith walls torn down, plastic hanging everywhere. Horrible service and this is the worst hotels.com experience we've ever had. Unacceptable you guys needs to get your act together.

It is outrageous that this hotel rents as is!

The hotel is clearly under renovation. This was Not indicated in its description on "hotels.com." The hotel's lobby is Literally filled with boxes, construction materials, etc., and the walls and front lobby show evidence of being painted and patched up. Inside the actual room, it was Very hot, and the a.c. kept shutting itself off before reaching the temperature to which my brother and I set it. The bed pillows were tiny, not unlike something you might expect to see on a sofa, but certainly Not appropriate for queen sized beds. There was nowhere to hang our clothing because the closet had no bar or shelving. It was Literally Just a niche with a wall bracket for an iron but no iron or ironing board were inside it [or inside the room even]. There was hair and something dry and red atop the toilet. We left the room minutes after we entered it and checked out after sharing our concerns with the attending front desk representative. He explained that a manager would not be available to process our refund until Monday, March 31, 2025. He was pleasant and the Only bright spot about our brief and highly disappointing experience at Chicago Southland Hotel this evening-March 28, 2025. Thus far, I've spoken with representatives of both hotels.com and Southland Chicago Hotel re: my refund and received zero relief. The frustration and inconvenience I experienced that evening is accruing compounded interest daily per the fact that I've yet to.be issued my refund.

Horror movie

My experience there was horrible. It took us almost 30 minutes to get checked in because they couldn’t find our rooms reservations, There were drug dealers and users in the lobby, Lobby seats had holes and what looked like dried up stains. Then when we got to the rooms they were horrible. The window panes were chipped had paint everywhere. The furniture was tore up carpet extremely dirty bathroom toilet dirty shower filthy. I wash my hands in the sink and the sink started leaking onto the floor.The outlet in the bathroom didn’t work. The second one didn’t have a lock on the door the small refrigerator was on the floor with the microwave stacked on top of it. The outlets weren’t covered weirs showing Families living there with the doors open going in and out of their neighbor rooms lol and i could go on. I have the pictures to prove that this isn’t made up. They’ll only allow me to upload 8 photos but they’re so much more.
