Jaslin Hotel

Jaslin hotel is situated on the edge of China town about a 15 mins walk from the McCormick Centre. Hotel is fine. Rooms are plain but clean, the set ionic the rooms are not optimal but gives everything you need. Staff are responsible enough but not proactive. It was good enough for what I needed which was a fair price hotel within walking distance from the McCormick centre.

This has had a facelift. The lobby and facade look great. The rooms are smaller and a bit tired but spotlessly clean. The fitness room is an afterthought. I wouldn't stay here for a holiday but for business it is fine. No breakfast but Starbucks is next door. The location is great. In Chinatown for endless good restaurants. 15mins walk to McCormick Centre for events (avoiding the traffic). 15min taxi to the centre of Chicago.

I attended a meeting at McCormick Place for a week. I sought a reasonable, safe hotel within walking distance. Jaslin Hotel is a new structure, neatly constructed, with elevators. I was in 207 with a queen bed facing Cermak Road. The bed was comfortable. I slept well. I was not awoken by sounds from the hotel or the street. There was a refrigerator where I stored perishable items to eat. There was no stove or microwave. A coffee maker was in the room. Sevings of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee and two tea servings were provided daily. Shampoo-conditioner, lotion, and hand soap were provided daily. An iron and ironing board were in the closet. A comforter was in the closet. There was a shower without handrails. The hotel has no restaurant. Several stores mainly with Chinese foods were nearby. There are safes in each closet. I walked to and from McCormick Place two or three times daily. That was fine. I would be reluctant to walk when ice and snow are present because there were some irregularities in the curbs and sidewalks. The hotel is in Chinatown. The red line metro is a couple of blocks away. The green line metro to Midway Airport is a few blocks away. The hotel is closer to Midway than to O'Hare. This is a fine, safe hotel for budget travelers.

I wasn't aware of how far the parking lot was from the hotel when I booked it. To make matters worse we arrived on a cold rainy day. The parking was cheap for Chicago but I could have definitely done without the walk. The hotel itself is fine. There are many restaurants close by and China Town is right there.

Great hotel, very clean, beautiful inside! Definitely worth the price! Very attentive staff. Nice view of the willis tower from chinatown. Quiete and peaceful. Rooms were very clean, just a bit small, but good enough for the price!
