My husband and I were going to see a band play nearby and needed a hotel in the area. At first,…read morethe Carleton was fully booked. Later, a suite opened up. It was way more space than we needed and a little pricier than I had wanted for just one night, when we were hardly going to be there. However, it was the only hotel in the area with positive reviews. First, the building is absolutely beautiful. The area, Pleasant District in Oak Park is indeed pleasant, and part of an upscale, older suburb that feels much more urban than suburban. When we pulled up, it was a bit unclear where to unload and check in. My husband stayed with the car while I ran in to check in. The woman who checked me in was friendly but mainly she just answered my questions. She didn't offer much information except for parking. When I asked for a late checkout, I was given 11:30 instead of 11:00. She did direct me to a nearby coffeehouse when I asked where to get coffee in the morning.. Our room was lovely, though a bit outdated. I liked being able to look down at the cafes below though the window. Some of the old furniture was very stately. The bathroom could have used a paint job. The toilet flushed like a public bathroom toilet, which wasn't cute at all. I think my biggest issue with the hotel was when someone loudly knocked on our door at 11:07 in the morning as we were packing to leave. It was an employee who asked, "You checkin' out or you stayin' over?" in a rather aggressive tone. I told her we were granted a late checkout. She apologized, though only slightly. Even if we had not been given a late checkout, it should have been a polite phone call around 11:15 reminding us of the checkout time and thanking us for staying. I truly wanted to like this old hotel in a special part of town, but I think they really could ramp up customer service. Aside from our rude awakening, I think a friendly greeting would have helped. I also think a few things like fresh water or coffee in the lobby, a or perhaps even a couple water bottles in our room.

This is a tired hotel in a great area, it's apparent the owners aren't spending much on this place…read more The cleaning person should be fired. I was excited to stay here close to my daughter's new apartment we were moving her into. The rating on Hotels.com is 9.2. No way this is a 9.2 hotel. We checked in with four people and had reserved 2 rooms. They were both the old motel rooms apparently. We checked out both, one smelled horrible like dirty diapers, had crumbs in the drawer, dirt on the floor, the window had dust and dirt behind the curtain. We looked at two other rooms, they were just as bad. The man at the desk gave us the vibe that we were interrupting his meal. He upgraded to inside the main hotel. When I opened the door, there was suitcases and clothes making it apparent this was occupied. Went back to front desk and got another (5th room now...) key and decided at this point, it's not going to be much better. It was better than the garden suites, but old and tired. Remodeled in like 1993? Won't be back which is a shame because this could be a great hotel with some decent housekeepers who actually clean and some upgrades to rooms.
