I needed this motel room so that I could go to Chicago for business, but for somewhere to sleep at night and spend part of my morning, this place did the trick. I did not have an issue with my room at all and the staff was willing to answer whatever question I had.

The tub was not clean. If I weren’t exhausted I would have changed rooms. One of the towels had hair still stuck in it. Grateful one of them was clean-looking and that I had plastic bags (to make a glove) and disinfecting wipes so I could use the shower.

First of all when renting the hotel and I called the lady and I asked for smoking she said no smoking? You pay $100 deposit and if it smells like smoke, she said I wasn’t gonna get my deposit back a little that she knows. I told her I respect it inside I smoked outside, but AnyWho, the room is too tight very small hard bed couldn’t relax on it to sleep. Hard pillows you sink inside the bed when you sleep the chairs were too hard. Nowhere to hang your clothes and the ladies just was rude so to recommend it to somebody else else’s on them.

He had no compassion, empathy or care for a human being. also was only there for 3 hours the first day and would not refubd me fof the next day i paid for... DO NOT GO TO THIS HITEL UNLESS .YOU WANT TO GET KICKEX OUT FOR A DUMB REASON AND YOUR MKNEY TAKEN... Total scammer

I showed up and had paid for The honeymoon suite and upon arrival was informed that I was required to pay a $100 cash deposit of which was nowhere on your site after about 20 minutes of searching, the staff informed me that it was on a different site and then proceeded to not want to refund my money because they said it was through your site and not their problem. So me and my pregnant girlfriend were required to take a smoking room or just be out the money I had paid for the suite was not offered any compensation or money back knowing well that I had paid a lot more for this week than I did for the single king size smoking room onmoney to take a smoking room because of it

This place will never be confused with the Hilton, but it isn't advertised as that either. I stayed here because it was walking distance from SeatGeek Stadium. It is a simple motel, but the room was clean and looked to have been updated, as everything looked fairly new and in good condition. Cleaning service comes to the rooms daily, and there are lots of places to eat and stuff in close proximity.

Booked a queen bed, got a full bed instead. Very strict no guest policy; had a couple friends over for 5 - 10 minutes before going out and received a call from the front desk.

The gentleman who checked us in was attentive and kind enough to help us with a error I made in reserving room. We were visiting family and needed a room closer to Midway. My husband said that we have found our new "go to" hotel when in Chicago.

While the rooms are a bit dated, the room was clean the bed's soft and everything was just right for my 2-day stay there. My only criticism would be that the stopper on the bathroom sink did not work.
- 3.5/5
Had issue with TV but they fixed it after I called they said they would send someone but I had to go to office to remind them. Couldn't get the tub to keep the water in. It might be me not used to the lever but I was too tired to ask. And the layout for the tv, microwave, mini fridge was odd. There was a small shelf over the microwave and a bar to hang clothes but it drapes on the microwave. TV is not in the center of room hard to see from the beds

the bathroom was too small for adults 5'8" & 6'0" (toilet seat was extremely low. Stayed 3 days (ants in the room/frig shelf broken/ bed pillows flat and small) Room worked for that time. No recommended for future

Would visit this property again. Highly recommend!

This is an old hotel, but the rooms have been updated. My first room was accidentally booked as a smoking room, which was not very good. I moved to a nonsmoking room, which was fine.

I like the name, too bad I couldn’t relax. The gentleman in the office was super friendly & nice!! It was easy to miss the entrance but there were other ways of entering without it being an extensive re-route. Both of the bed comforters had at least 5-7 burn holes everywhere some huge too, a couple long curly jet black hair made up in the sheets of bed, lipstick stains on pillow cases, weird black stain on sheets of other bed, the shower had purple/black mold looking spots on floor, smelled of urine, huge stains on chair & chair on wheels, located on first floor when I booked for second floor. Slept on top of comforter, son wouldn’t stay in room so he guarded the door. I woke with tons of red bites all over legs and arms.

A clean, cute renovation of an older motel. This was a handy place to spend the night before catching a flight at nearby Midway Airport the next morning.

What I hated is that they charged me 40.00 extra AND charged me like it was 2 people instead of one. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place and the lady behind the reception counter took advantage of that and charged me as much extra on top of everything else that she could. I will NOT be returning to these scam artists for further buisness.

This is my 3rd time staying at the New Relax Inn. Once again the room was very clean and the staff was very helpful and friendly. I had a hard time sleeping because there was an electric heat register that ran under the bed along the wall. It was on all night making the bed extremely warm and uncomfortable to sleep on. There was no way to turn it off.

It's kinda like a Motel 6. The front door was locked, so you have to be buzzed into the Front Desk to check in and out. There is a Plexiglas screen separating the front desk agent from you, so I immediately asked if the neighborhood was safe... She said it was, and we didn't have any safety issues the night we were there. The room is basic. We didn't use the TV or "Micro fridge". The bed was clean. The ceiling had some splotching on it, I didn't investigate further. The toilet sits very low to the ground. If this is the highest ranked "inexpensive" place to stay around here, I'd hate to see what the lower ranked places look like.

This place surprised me. I was expecting OK, but got WOW! My room was quite large and was very clean. It looked like it had been recently been renovated. The carpet looked like it was new, the beds looked new, the bathroom looked new. I was very pleasantly surprised by this. Along with the friendly staff and a quiet room, my stay here was top notch all the way through. My only criticism would be the bathroom amenities. The shampoo was in a small pouch that you had to tear open which was difficult when I was already in the shower with wet hands. My thanks to everyone at the New Relax Inn for making my stay absolutely wonderful.

Over all I had a nice stay, the room was a little run down, but I would still come back for another stay! It was pretty quiet and relaxing!

The room was super clean new carpet the bathroom had all new tile and was really nice and clean and amazing, a few things I didn't like we showed up after 5:00 p.m. and her check in time was supposed to be two when we had to wait for 10 minutes for them to finish cleaning the rooms we could check in, when we got in the room there was mirrors on the ceiling and flashing lights that turned on I don't know if this used to be some kind of a sex motel or but it was kind of a little weird then they had a pamphlet on the dresser for advertising their triple x movies so that was a little strange I guess if you had a family wouldn't want to bring them in that room

The hotel was nice. The people were great. Room clean. The only thing I didn’t like is they shut off the heat because it’s summer but it was raining and I got cold at night but the did provide a portable heater at my request. I would stay again my next trip to Chicago

The headboard and walls were lined with mirrors. I could select XXX movies or regular TV. There was constant activity outside--horns honking, people swearing, traffic. Someone knocked on my door. In the morning, there were empty beer bottles and a pair of cutoff shorts on the ledge. It was a frightening experience.
