What's nearby

  • This beach is in Centennial Park in Evanston, IL This picture was taken at sunset which was happening on the opposite side but I'm facing east here and you can see the sunset reflection on the horizon. It was perfect timing because water was very calm and it was hard to tell were skies connect with water on the horizon.

The room was spotless and the beds were comfortable. The staff accommodated all of my requests: extra blankets and a quiet floor. $18 for parking seems steep to me especially when breakfast also is an extra charge, but I still would recommend staying at this hotel and I will definitely stay here on my next visit!
