Nice location in downtown Evanston, but it is a bit too close to the L and Metra trains. I sleep with some powerful earplugs, so I didn't have any sleeping problems. But if that train noise would be an issue for you, I suggest staying at some of the other hotels that have the positives of the downtown Evanston location but are a bit farther away from the trains. Several others fit the bill but are still within walking distance of the trains. Otherwise, this was a nice hotel with OK gym, good inexpensive breakfast buffet and nice rooms.

The only thing was that the coffee machine and light when you enter the room were not working. We also had to sign up to IGH membership (free) in order to do early-check in or else they would charge us $50. Other than that, everything was fine and comfortable!
