Top Rainbow Beach Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Chicago-South/University Medical Center

"Breakfast buffet was excellent, rooms spacious and comfortable. Only bummer was the pool was closed for renovations when we were there and the listing didn't say so. Also the parking fee is HIGH so be prepared!"

Bright Vintage U of C Center Condo with WiFi, AC in enjoyable Chicago

8/10 Good

"The condo is clean, and the beds were very comfortable. Kitchen basics are provided (pots, pans, coffee maker, tea kettle, tableware, etc.), but there is no toaster. The towels were thin and very scratchy, but the bed linens were great. Location is excellent. I was able to park right in front of the building and felt very safe in this neighborhood. Easy walk to U of Chicago campus and restaurants/shops in the Woodlawn neighborhood."
